The president seemed to claim credit for the Nobel Prize — in physics?!?
President Donald Trump on Thursday appeared to claim some credit for the Nobel Prize in physics for work done decades before he even became president.
The president shared a quote on Truth Social that he said was from Energy Secretary Chris Wright ― a former fracking exec ― saying the award this year given for work in quantum physics is, by extension, an award for Trump.
“Quantum computing, along with AI and Fusion, are the three signature Trump science efforts,” the quote attributed to Wright read. “Trump 47 racks up his first Nobel Prize!!”
This year’s prize went to John Clarke (UC Berkeley), Michel H. Devoret (Yale and UC Santa Barbara), and John M. Martinis (UC Santa Barbara and Qolab), for “the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quantisation in an electric circuit,” according to a news release from the Nobel Foundation.
