Donald Trump Nominated for Nobel Peace Prize Again

Source: Newsweek

Donald Trump has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize after his name was put forward by a Republican congresswoman, citing the Abraham Accords the former president helped sign while in office.

New York Rep. Claudia Tenney said that Trump was "instrumental" in brokering the treaty signed in September 2020 between Israel and Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, which aimed to normalize their relations as part of an overall goal to tackle ongoing tensions in the Middle East between Arab countries and Israel. Morocco and Sudan followed suit in signing similar agreements in the following months.

"For decades, bureaucrats, foreign policy 'professionals', and international organizations insisted that additional Middle East peace agreements were impossible without a resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. President Trump proved that to be false," Tenney told Fox News in a statement.

Tenney noted that the 1976 Israeli peace agreement with Egypt and the Oslo Accords in 1994 were both recognized with Nobel Peace Prizes, but so far Trump's role in the signing of the Abraham Accords had not been acknowledged.

Isn't that old news? That shouldn't make him eligible for anything.

...MBS the intel that put Jamal Khashoggi in the hands of bonesaw-wielding cutthroats. If there's a prize for that, DJT is eminently eligible. Jared, too.

More Americans died under TFG's watch from Covid than the revolutionary, civil, WWI & 2, Korea and Vietnam wars combined! Add in 9/11 and the OK bombing too!

Remember, Trump didn't want to help the blue states during Covid. Also, remember Jared Kushner said that the PPE reserves were for THEM, not the public.

Worst mass shooting ever in Las Vegas. Worst riots. Worst pandemic handling. Worst toxic water crisis. The largest prison release of self described Taliban terrorists ever for absolutely NOTHING in return. I could go on an on about this trrumpty dumpty but will settle for these few lines..

BFD. Does Nobel Institute give out a prize for "most times crapping your pants"? Surely, he would win that one.

If Putin were to win this war with Ukraine, it would open a gateway for Putin to attack other countries to the West.

In my mind, Trump is a co-conspirator in war crimes, given Putin's unlawful military tactics on the ground.

Nobel prize, what a laugh. He should be dragged in handcuff to the International Criminal Court (ICC) to face charges.

And none of his idiots/cult would not even know it wasn't true.

What a sad state of affairs. Our country is becoming a sick joke.
