Trump Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize for Third Time

A group of Australian law professors have given President Trump his third Nobel Peace Prize nomination for his commitment to ending foreign wars.

"The Trump Doctrine is something extraordinary, as so many things that Donald Trump does," law professor David Flint explained on Sky News. "He is guided by two things, which seem to be absent from so many politicians. He has firstly common sense and he is only guided by a national interest, and therefore, in our circumstances, an interest in the Western alliance. What he has done with the Trump Doctrine is that he has decided that he would no longer have America involved in endless wars, wars which achieve nothing, but the killing of thousands of young Americans and enormous debts imposed on America."

The professors also gave the president recognition for his recent signing of the Abraham Accords, a peace agreement between Israel, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates. The deal will establish normalized relations and "reciprocal embassies" in each country. Ahead of the signing ceremony, Trump said that a handful of other countries are expected to join the peace deal in the coming weeks.

Trump was previously nominated by Christian Tybring-Gjedde, a member of the Norwegian Parliament, for doing "more trying to create peace between nations than most other Peace Prize nominees." Swedish Parliament member Magnus Jacobsson nominated him a second time for his leadership in the accord between Kosovo, Serbia, and Israel.

It appears that some courageous individuals, from three different nations, are attempting to challenge that.

Only with total f@#$wits and mass murderers and liars, and they only get one nomination. Nominating someone who actually deserves it? For even one? Let alone three? Check outside for flying pigs.

There are thumbs on scales and some very deserving people should get a fair shot.

...but when barack hussein obama wins with NO ACCOMPLISHMENTS, the prize devolves into is a meaningless political weapon.

There are some great leaders in this world who deserve awards for keeping us safe and securing peace under the most difficult circumsances.

NO DOUBT

The pendulum of history, in every aspect, constantly swings back and forth, and always has.

At least this is an attempt to take the prize back from the state that you describe.

Australian Eminent law professor David Flint is among four Australian law professors who are nominating Trump....

Really well worth a listen to hear this Law Professor speak so highly and specifically about our Pres.

Exactly. I'd let Gropin'Joe cut me to pieces and reply "I must not be too bad of a guy Joe, I've been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize three times. Not too shabby for a jerk like me. Huh Joe?"

"I want peace, that's why I ran for president, to keep the blood of our young men and women from being spilled by war mongering profiteers like you, Joe."

February 1st is the deadline for nominations, so Obama was nominated within the first 11 days of his becoming President.

For all we know, Biden has also been nominated this year. If so, I wouldn't put it past the Nobel Prize committee to give it to him in hopes of aiding his chances in the election.

Kayleigh McEnany should inform the assembled White House press corps that these three Nobel Peace Prize nominations mean that Trump will now be qualified to be crowned "King of America" for life.

Lousy post.

There were suggestions after the Revolution that we should establish a monarchy, and make Washington ‘king’.

He eschewed all of that; and went back to his farm.

You really don't have any sense of humor at all, do you, Jamestown1630?

I guess I don’t, when it comes to issues that are crucial to our continuance as the Republic of the United States.

I especially don’t like playing around, on a site like this, with silly ideas that enemies are entirely ready to pounce upon. Journalists today don’t have any morals - they just want something to seize upon; and they especially enjoy demonizing sites like this.

They’ve been suggesting for weeks that the President will refuse to concede, if he loses the election. Your post was potentially assisting that false narrative; and that’s why I didn’t like it.

If you think it’s ‘OK’ to offer grist for their mill, then keep on doing it. I find certain jokes unwise, right now; and feel that they reflect poorly on the site, and all of us.

I'll let you decide what you want to post, and I will decide what I want to post.

You should watch the Sky News Australia interview with one of the law professors who nominated him. I think you will be pleasantly surprised at how deeply impressed this man is with President Trump and his success as a world leader. https://youtu.be/OxGT_cQXpj8
