Does Trump Deserve the Nobel Peace Prize?

Postby saxitoxin on Sat Apr 28, 2018 9:35 pm

At today's party mass rally, the crowd began spontaneously chanting "NOBEL!" - calling for President Trump to receive the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in breakthrough talks that may lead to peace and reunification of the Korean Peninsula.

This is a great opportunity to see how biased the Europeans are. They will says something silly like, He defeated ISIS so no award for Trump. Ending a war after 65 years is common so no award for Trump. He married a European Super Model so he got his reward already. :lol:

It would be weird for a Peace prize for peace on the Korean peninsula to go to anyone other than the Korean leaders themselves. Trump's capricious activities are a sideshow at best.

No, his logic said if barry got one trump should get 50.

Let's just hold the award back and let something beyond 'a plan to have a meeting... soon' happen before we go giving it out.

Kim Jong-un didn't just spontaneously wander across the DMZ. It preceded months of digital diplomacy by Trump, an earlier visit to the DPRK by Mike Pompeo as Trump's emissary, Trump's visit to Seoul for consultations with Moon, Moon's visit to Washington for consultations with Trump, etc. And the the Kim-Moon meeting was only the appetizer course to the main event between Kim and Trump anyway.

Moon Jae-in understands what the decrepit and feebled Democratic Party has been unable to understand due to the senility that has crippled it during during the twilight days of its existence.

Actually, I don't think Trump should get the Nobel Prize.

Obama got the Nobel Prize for looking through a pair of binoculars at Kim jong-un.

If that's the standard for Nobel Prizes, Trump will need something much bigger and better after his historic summit takes place.

After Clinton was lambasted for attempting dialogue with North Korea, Obama took the even worse view of just completely ignoring obligations of working toward peace (and was also roundly criticized by his political opponents because consistency is not Washington's strong suit on either side of the aisle). He did somehow win a peace prize for this, so as far as useless prizes go, sure, give one to Trump. Why not at this point? Though, in Obama's defense, he didn't have a Moon Jae In in power with the political willpower to do anything.

I'm beginning to think that Moon's political understanding of the situation is actually very shrewd, as he does have to deal with peripheral parties such as the United States and China, who, for better or worse, were signatories to the armistice. What better way to grease those gears than feeding into the US's most egotistical and least intellectually capable leader since perhaps the inception of the country?

"Yes, Mr. Trump's incoherant yelling was key to convincing us to come together on this agreement. Please sign here and go away immediately."
