Somebody send him a big gold medal that says that in florid calligraphy. He'd never know the difference.

I really doubt it. Everyone hates him internationally. He did not broker the peace.

Than the noble peace price. Everybody knows that (mostly because I think it would be theraputic to see Trump punched a bunch of times).

He's trying to take credit for the North Korea/South Korea thing. Has Kim Jong Un really changed his thinking on anything? I find that very doubtful. I'm more inclined to believe the Chinese scientists who have reported the damage done to the Korean peninsula by Kim Jong Un's nuclear testing. There could be a lot more instability than anyone wants to admit. Kim Jong Un may be trying to "get along" because he has no choice. It's spinning a very bad situation, and people are falling for it.

For every two sane people that rightfully hate him, there is one clueless one that thinks he’s the greatest.

Seems to me that N and S Korea with support from China are making sure they are taken off Trump's radar as target for his military ambitions. CIA/Pompeo have known for months that peace initiatives between N and S Korea were ongoing and Russia is supportive, so US/Trump has no choice but to go along with this detente effort and try to give him credit.

Or his (mis-)Administration's apparent discussion about giving North Korea a "bloody nose" if they didn't disarm?

He also rejected the bellicose nature of tweeting and posturing by "US administration."

The White House jackass has been on the sidelines tweeting or making incoherent, incomprehensible comments.

After Moon extended a hand, Kim - for whatever reason - just took him up on it.

The US sends it's almost-confirmed sketchy SoS giving great honor on the world stage to a maniacal murderous dictator, and now Nobel Prizes should be delivered to the Dotard?

If anything he has done the exact opposite. He has brought us to the brink of nuclear war and colluded with a murderous hostile foreign power. That's the opposite of peace if you ask me!

Cuz of the North Korea thing. Trump is just parroting what this guy said. (I don't know who the guy was)

The host of the show just about choked and replied, "What?" (I could just see her spitting out her coffee) I think the show was On Point. I think the host was Meghna Chakrabarti.
