Pakistan will nominate *rump for a Nobel Peace Prize

Pakistan said on Saturday it would recommend U.S. President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, an accolade that he has said he craves, for his work in helping to resolve the recent conflict between India and Pakistan.

However if he stays tied to Netanyahu's policies against the Palestinian People, bombs Iran or Los Angeles, it will blow his chances to win.
