I do not for one millisecond beleive that Husseij tried to “wriggle out” of getting the Nobel.

So, the Norwegian gent interviewed here basically admits that the Peace Prize is given out for image and perceived attitude. Actual practical results are not valued unless the nominee mouths the proper shibboleths to appease Norwegian Lefties.
Well, now I have pretty much lost the vestiges of respect that used to have for the Nobel Committee. Screw them.

Just as Obama tried to duck out on his two Grammys. Not.

Wow. That’s bad.
Trump doesn’t need the prize.
He has the REAL AFFECTION and LOVE of the people until he dies, like Ronald Reagan did.
No prize can replace that.

Seems you have a better chance of winning if you’re first recognized as a mass murderer or maker of the worst wars in history. such as Yasser Arafat and Jimmy Carter

It is true, Obama did not do much before winning, Lundestad, 74, a member of Norways Nobel Committee until 2014, told The Post. But he is black and we have correspondingly low expectations for him on the committee. And when we have an American president who supports socialism, we like to strengthen him.

Oh come on. We all know Black Man Good and Orange Man Bad.
It is so simple. Black man can do no bad and Orange man can do no good.
Orange Man could cure all disease, eliminate all famine, prevent all suffering and it would still be Orange Man Bad.
They are nuts.

Too easy. Too obvious. Obama is a Socialist/Marxist One World Order and a Democrat. He got the “award” based on these facts alone.
Donald Trump is quite the opposite. He’s an American Patriot. A Constitutionalist. America First. A Republican. Therefore under no circumstances would he even be seriously considered.
If Trump cured cancer the socialist one worlder’s would decry all the cancer specialists the world over who are now out of jobs and how devastating this is to them and their
families.

I find the answer to the question your article posed to be very simple.....Obama will receive all the world's accolades and praise because of and for this very reason; he chooses not honor or revere the God of the Bible, but rather to pursue mindless hedonism—the world adores that. Trump will receive none because at stage in his life he has chosen a different path than in his early life. He has chosen to revere and live for God and his fellow Americans-—the world in their mindless hedonism just can't understand that.

You couldn’t hang a Nobel ribbon around one of Trump’s pinky toes.
He’s way too big for it.

Leave it be. Nobel Prize like the Grammys and Oscars are jokes participation prizes for left wingers. Reagen never got one. Neither did Churchill. Hell with it. Surprised political correction for a prize honoring the inventor of dynamite hasn’t been denounced by the racist left.

But he represented the ideals of the committee. And when we have an American president who supports that message, we like to strengthen him.I think we have focused in on the problem here.

The inventor of dynamite WAS Alfred Nobel.
Tis better to remain silent and thought a fool than to open one’s mouth and remove all doubt

just a comment on the way the dems play their game... they have, for years, broke every rule and no law ever stopped them.. they play mean and dirty...
now we can be nice, play by all the rules and lose the game..lose the war. and never get a prize for anything.
only i dont like to lose all the time and i really dont like to be played the fool.
I’d go to my voters.. go to who sent me.. and explain my predicament, and explain if they want to play dirty and think I’m a fool, i will meet them on the corner of hard knocks.. and have plans to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to wipe them out. i will not be taken for a ride or impeachment..
i would not let smutz in his office.. i would send enough to prevent him from carrying on. and having warned the media before i took action.. so everyone knows I’ve had enough of their dirt and they want to make their own way of taking me out and getting that all mighty power you all want more than you want to work for the people.. you will not win this and you will get tit for tat.. i have a pen and a lot of guts. i will do whatever it takes.. now go find something useful to do.
and Trump will win in 2020 .. the world loves a fighter against cheating liars.

I can agree with this but that is not an accurate quote. Please do not emulate Shifty Schitt.
