Sen. Graham: Trump May Deserve the Nobel Peace Prize for North Korea Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) told Fox News Friday that if President Trump is able to get North Korean leader Kim Jong Un to agree to denuclearize, the president should get the Nobel Peace Prize. Graham praised Trump for the stunning progress made in getting North and South Korea leaders to meet Thursday to discuss denuclearization.
It wouldn't have happened without Trump," Graham said Friday.
“The fact that the North Korean and the South Korean president met and they vowed to end the war. What happened? Donald Trump convinced North Korea and China he was serious about bringing about change," he emphasized. "We're not there yet, but if this happens, President Trump deserves the Nobel Peace Prize."
Graham praised Trump for ignoring the critiques of his strategy towards North Korea
“All of the criticism of President Trump on fire and fury and maximum pressure, I’m glad he didn’t listen to all those who failed before him,” he said.
However, Graham added a cautionary word as well.
"A word of warning: the worst thing Kim Jong Un could do is play Trump," he said. "To go through all these motions and go back to the old way of doing business, Donald Trump will not tolerate being played."
"We're either going to have peace or we're going to have a war now because Kim Jong Un has made a mistake if he's not serious," he concluded.
President Trump tweeted about the historic news Friday morning, saying “time will tell.”
It will never happen because if it did, too many liberal heads would spin so fast that the earth would spin out of control into outer space.
The peace prize decision makers will never give Trump a Peace prize, no matter what he does. It’s just that simple. They only give prizes to those who help the military war industry keep producing war junk. Obama armed several terrorist groups that resulting in billions in arms from Russia, US, France, UK, Germany and China. See the pattern? It’s all about money
Graham on Fox from USC today- “Go Cocks”
That’s so appropriate fly DemLibs,
A De-Nuclearized Korea will result in a Nobel Peace Prize.
For Kim.
Linda surprises me sometimes.

——Graham gives credit where credit is due.——
Actually, he did not.
While the President does in fact deserve lots of credit, so does his colleague President XI. We don’t know exactly what were his demands. He was however very convincing
Kim was double teamed.
There should be a nobel double award
At least Graham gives credit where credit is due.
Not for this. I would love to see President Trump tell the Nobel committee to take that obscene prize and stick it where the sun don’t shine if they ever offered it.
Trump should tell the Nobel Committee where they can stick their prize.
Sorry gator........saw your post after I posted mine which goes to show, Texans think alike..........lol
There were so many things wrong about the Obama years. It would take too long, and be a pain besides, to add them all up.
But the complete farce of the Nobel Peace Prize must be in the top three.
They'll give the Peace Prize to Bashar al-Assad before they'll give it to Donald Trump.
If Scottish Trump had been around in 1745 the Jacobites might still be governing class in Scotland.
Yap, Obama will get 2nd Nobel Peace prize for stepping aside after 2 terms.
The Nobel committee had already scribed a medal with “President Hillary Clinton” on it. Now it has been mothballed until 2020.
If President Donald J. Trump (I love spelling it out) is awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, he should decline the offer, saying “Thanks, but no thanks, I see no honor or value in a prize that you have previously awarded to Mandela, Carter, Algore, and Barack Obama. There, no longer, is any “Prize in the NPP.”
PS Gore???????????
“Trump doesn’t need the money or the prize.”
True, because he has an ample supply of toilet paper at his disposal.
“Yep, and though President Trump would deserve it that commie group would never award it to him.”
If it were offered, Trump should refuse it simply because it’s become a meaningless Liberal “award” for doing nothing. It’s kinda like saying “I don’t want to be a member of a club that wouldn’t welcome me.”
Deserve has nothing to do with it. The Nobel Peace Prize sends a political message from the committee. President Trump could bring peace to Korea, solve world hunger, and achieve complete nuclear disarmament and I would still stand a better chance at winning than he would.
I suspect Kim will be given the Nobel Peace prize and not Trump. Heck they gave Obama one for doing absolutely nothing.
I don’t really get Linda. He does what he can to frustrate Trump like backing a measure to not fire Mueller, but then praises him here.
