... And yet, awarding Trump the Nobel Prize might prove quite fitting. Despite the popular association of the Nobel with great thinkers, diplomats and statesmen, the prize has also routinely rewarded the undeserving, the frauds and the criminals.

Trump should accept the prize and include both Kim and the SK leader. That would really blow up rat heads.
That would be brilliant!
Well, you can’t deny that the Nobel Peace Prize is very tarnished.
Arafat received the award.... that means, either Trump turns it down or he ought to get 15 of them
Wonder what it’s like to be a New York Times presstitute who sells his or her soul to the Devil on a regular basis.
Don’t they have family members who read this stuff and tell them they are full of BS? Have they no shame?
Sounds like the subject an interesting book (or psychological study). How do evil media kingpins like Jeff Zucker and his editor minions identify and hire these journalist hitmen? How are they rewarded? How are they disciplined so they remain on the plantation?
Arafat got the Nobel.
Obama got it for nothing.
The Nobel was no meaning any more.
I used to respect the Nobel Committee and their awards. I was surprised they included Yassir Arafat, but accepted it back then. Now, when Carter was awarded the Peace Prize for ‘brokering the nuclear non-proliferation treaty with North Korea’, I was shaking my head. Especially when two weeks later we found out that the Norks HAD nuclear weapons. I was yelling (to no one in particular) ‘Let’s see if he gives back the prize and the prize money’. But he’s Dem, who is still revered by the Dem masses, so of course he didn’t return either. I would love to see PDJT get the Peace Prize, if only to be able to observe the Leftist heads, all over the world, explode. They still think those prizes mean something. And in the Sciences, I think they still do.
It’s not worthy anymore. Yasir Arafat? Barack Obama?
I hope Trump doesn’t win. It’s useless pos. Give it to Putin, perhaps Abas, or Bashir. The more Trump deserves it the more I hope he doesn’t win it. He’ll get more mileage out of it by not winning then by winning.
If these Korea negotiations really amount to something great then I say its a 2 way split. Trump and Kim Jun Il.
It’s a point of “It’s not what you’ve done for me, it’s what have you done for me lately”.
I didn’t know about Carter’s NK failure and subsequent award. He should definitely have given it back!
“Arafat got the Nobel.
Obama got it for nothing.
The Nobel was no meaning any more.”
Perhaps most damning is the fact that Ronald Reagan did not receive it for ending the Cold War. I seriously hope Trump politely declines on that basis.
IIRC, it was in 2002.
Very good observation!
If President Trump wins it....I pray he refuses it.
Maybe he can send an Indian chick in his place, like Marlon Brando did.

He should give it to Rodman and really watch the libs crap.
Not when they gave it to 0bama before he even
The president of the United States held the Singapore summit for peace in Korea.
The rightful holder of the office should win the Nobel Peace Prize.
Hillary should be president since she won the popular vote.
Ergo, the Nobel prize should go to Hillary!
I never thought about it. It’s true that Reagan deserves it more than anyone dead or alive
