Norway mocks Trump's vulgar criticism by showcasing scenic 'sh*t houses' after he calls country a 'sh*t house' Norway's tourism board responds to Donald Trump's insulting remarks by highlighting the country's beautiful designer toilets with stunning views. The move comes after Trump criticized Norway at a rally, claiming he didn't want immigrants from there because he wasn't awarded a Nobel Peace Prize. Norway has mocked Donald Trump's vulgar criticism of the country by releasing a list of the most scenic 'sh*t houses' in the nation. On Sunday, the US President escalated his invective against Norway, calling it a 'sh*thouse country' after he was not awarded a Nobel Peace Prize. Attributing recent unrest in France to immigration, Trump said he would welcome immigrants from some countries but not from Norway 'because I didn't get the Nobel Prize... So I don't want anybody from Norway.' Trump made the comments at a political rally in Michigan ahead of next week's midterm elections, adding that immigrants from Norway were not welcome in the US. The US President also said that 'Norway sucks,' after the Nobel committee, which is based in the capital Oslo, did not award him a Peace Prize.Norway Tourism Board Responds To Trump'I'm not in love with Norway. Frankly, Norway sucks. Norway has become a sh*t house country, actually,' Trump said, using a term that he has also previously applied to Haiti, Libya, Somalia and Yemen. In response, Norway's tourism board this week showcased on their website some of the country's most beautiful lavatories.'Are these the world's best sh*t houses? ' asked Visit Norway on its website, adding, 'Norway makes sh*t houses great again!' A collection of striking designer loos were featured, many boasting breathtaking views of fjords, rivers, waterfalls and some of Norway's most spectacular landscapes Visit Norway said that along 18 scenic routes across the country, leading architects had been commissioned to transform the roadside toilet into an attraction in its own right Alongside pictures of award-winning toilets, the board added: 'These toilets are worth a visit, both when you really have to go - and when you don't. ' Visit Norway said that along 18 scenic routes across the country, leading architects had been commissioned to transform the roadside toilet into an attraction in its own right.Designer Loos Feature Stunning ViewsThe result is a collection of striking designer loos, many boasting breathtaking views of fjords, rivers, waterfalls and some of Norway's most spectacular landscapes. These included a wave-shaped toilet at a rest stop in Helgeland, a solar-powered 'Instagram worthy' loo at the Utsikten viewpoint, and the famous triangular 'golden toilet' on Senja Island. Earlier this week, Norwegian foreign minister Espen Barth Eide responded to Trump's comments, telling national broadcaster NRK: 'He knows very well that the Nobel Committee is independent.We have reminded them of that, if anyone is wondering, and that is still the case.' Barth Eide tried to dismiss the US President's churlish and foul-mouthed tirade as mere campaign rhetoric. He insisted Norway attached 'great importance' to its strong relationship with America, adding waspishly that Trump 'is currently in the midst of an election campaign that perhaps isn't going very well for his party, and that leads him to say a lot of things'.Trump Obsessed With Winning Nobel PrizeEarlier this month Trump said that failing to award him a Nobel Peace Prize was an 'indelible stain' on Norway. Washington insiders say Trump is 'obsessed' with winning the Peace Prize, which much to his disgust Barack Obama won in the first year of his presidency for his work strengthening international diplomacy and supporting a world free of nuclear weapons.Aides in the Trump administration say senior State Department officials have it in the back of their minds at all times, one saying: 'Trump sees this prize as the ultimate capstone to how history will remember him.' Only two other sitting US presidents besides Obama, Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, have won the award. Norway, a country of 5.6 million people, hasn't exactly taken to the longboats over the insults.Norway's tourism board this week showcased on their website some of the country's most beautiful lavatories Alongside pictures of award-winning toilets, the board adding: 'These toilets are worth a visit, both when you really have to go - and when you don't' Boosted considerably by oil and natural gas revenue, Norway is among ⁠the highest-income countries as measured by GDP per capita. Its sovereign wealth fund posted record profit of 1.75 trillion Norwegian crowns ($184.3billion) for ⁠the first half of 2026.Norway Outperforms US On Key MetricsThe metrics that show Norway significantly outperforming the US include life expectancy (more than four years), infant mortality, adult obesity (the US has more than twice the rate), GDP per capita ($106,000 to $94,000), corruption perceptions, press freedom and the World Happiness Rank, which has Norwegians in sixth place and Americans in 23rd. Another statistic that rather undermines Trump's threat over Norwegian migration is that the flow is far stronger in the other direction.According to the Oslo government, more Americans emigrated to Norway in 2025 than Norwegians emigrated to the United States. Last year, 1,529 American citizens moved to Norway, compared with 1,005 Norwegians who relocated to the United States.
