Trump Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize
September 9, 2020 at 7:37 am EDT By Taegan Goddard


Fox News broke an “exclusive” that President Trump had been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize.

Daily Beast: “What it didn’t mention was that hundreds of people are nominated every year, and that Trump’s nomination—for his role in the new Israel-United Arab Emirates agreement—came from one of Norway’s most well-known anti-immigration cranks.”

Let's all remind him, every chance we get, that Obama was a winner and he is a loser.

he would be disqualified based on his actions for fomenting discord here in our own country.
I would expect the committee to laugh out loud when they even see his name on the list!

From the wiki.. "In a submission not intended to be taken seriously, antifascist member of the Swedish parliament Erik Gottfrid Christian Brandt nominated German dictator Adolf Hitler, but the nomination was cancelled. No prize was awarded in 1939 to anyone for peace."
