imagine if DJT won the nobel AND got judge kavanaugh in the same weekend. LOL

It would be a fireworks show of a lifetime.

And of course he should refuse it.

Giving it to Obama was a mistake that showed the bias of the award. The Nobel Peace Prize is forever tainted.

If the announce President Trump as the winner he should call a press conference on the White House lawn and proceed to take a knee and say he can not in good consious accept an award that lost its value due to previous winners.

I’m hoping. But no way they’ll give it to him alone.

If Trump doesn’t get the Nobel Peace Prize for the nuclear stand-down in Korea, any remaining credibility they had will be gone.

Prediction:
It will be awarded to Norko Kim and South Korea’s leader, leaving out PDJT.

A bit premature to assume the Norks have really stood down...

Didn’t stop the prize going to Arafat. Didn’t get revoked when he started a new war, either.

The Nobel foundation is forever disgraced for the ridiculous move of awarding the Peace prize to a person who had done nothing more than being the first Kenyan elected to the USA presidency

President Trump deserves it above all others.

"In 1979, at the age of 69, Mother Teresa was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace. ... Mother Teresa refused to attend the traditional Nobel banquet in her honor, asking that the $7,000 cost of the dinner instead be donated to the poor of India."

She not only used the prize money for the poor but the banquet money as well. If Trump is picked he could do something like that as an example to the world. I also just read her acceptance speech again after so may years - inspiring even more today.

It went to two people, a doctor and a human rights activist who are involved against using sexual violence in war.

A coded message to the American resistance to redouble its efforts to keep Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court? Hmmm
