Trump Just Became the Nobel Peace Prize Committee’s Worst Nightmare
Breitbart News ^ | 12 Jun 2018 | James Delingpole

As he didn’t neglect to remind us in his hilarious post North Korea summit press conference, President Trump just saved maybe 30 million people from nuclear annihilation. He did what his predecessors considered impossible and what the liberal media and all the “experts” continue to assure us can never be done: he brought peace to the region which up till now was considered the likeliest ground zero for World War III.

In other words, pretty much, President Trump just saved the world. ...

These were just of the few things President Trump didn’t actually say at his hugely entertaining post-summit press conference in Singapore. But then he didn’t need to. Anyone watching could read the subtext for themselves.

“I’ll do whatever it take to make the world a better place,” said President Trump in the special, soften humble-brag voice he uses to wind up reporters from Time.

What he meant was: “You still think I’m not the greatest president you’re ever likely to see in your life time? Hold my beer…”

Looking bright and alert on virtually no sleep, Trump worked the event like an Olympic sprinter doing a victory lap of the track after smashing the world record. This was his moment – one to cherish with his friends and supporters; one to rub in the noses of his enemies – and he was in no mood to rush his time in the sun. To show us just how much he was enjoying it, he casual-ostentatiously asked his press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders if she’d allow him an extension.

...this was a master at the very top of his game, winning new friends, confounding his enemies, reminding the world that he is by some margin its greatest, most charismatic leader.

Nobel is a worthless organization that supports dictators, tyrants, and terrorists.

DJT should accept and give the money to the NRA or GOA. They’d all go ballistic.

Agreed. They gave prizes to and renamed streets after ones like Arafat and Mandela, but refused to acknowledge Reagan in any sort of way.

They want to put Trump in company with such “people” as Arrafat and Obama? If they try to give him the prize, he should refuse it and tell them to stick it up where the sun don’t shine...sideways.

The Committee will probably give the Peace Prize to Kim and the South Korean President - which is fair, as far as it goes.

Trump will be ignored for 2 reasons - the Nobel Committee is notoriously leftist and hates his guts, plus the awards are always made in October, and the Committee doesn’t want to do anything that would help Trump so close to the elections.

Doesn’t matter, American voters will still give Trump the credit. In fact, played right, he can even portray himself as the victim of leftists politics.

Nobel Committee is hooped either way!

"They were politicized decades ago. Probably always were. Same for the Pulitzer. Awards are given strictly to lefties even for so-called science" Very much personifies Duranty and his Pulitzer Prize (yet to be revoked).

Obama should be forced to live with Hillary and Bill to earn that Prize.

Great article, and thanks for posting. The whole thing is one delicious read.

I wasn't really surprised at the reaction of the U.S. media - most of them - but I am appalled. These are people who would prefer a literal nuclear holocaust to stating something positive about the President they're trying to destroy. Amazing.

FYI

“hooped” is a polite way of avoiding the f-bomb ...

e.g.,

“In 2018, the Dems have no leader, no policies, no fight .... they’re hooped”

I have no doubt at all that they’ll award one to Kim Jong Un and nothing to PDJT.

Things that mean the opposite of their name: Human Rights Watch by Soros, the Gay community, Antifa, ACLU, Noble Peace Prize.

Trump won't get the prize and nobody in Stockholm will loose any sleep over it.

Last 3 Americans to win the Nobel "Peace" Prize:

2002: Jimmy Carter -- "For his decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development". IE selling out Israel.

2007: Al Gore -- For his "global warming" scam.

2009: Barack Hussein Obama -- Just for being soooooo AWSOME!!!

You’re more than welcome.

I have to say that I am surprised. This was so fundamental and so momentous that I couldn’t see how the media could NOT understand the significance of what he had accomplished. But the bright side I always try to see is that it’s another example of overplaying their hand to the American people before the election. I expect Trump’s numbers to go up yet again, which will just make the media grind their teeth the more. How nice.
