Breaking: Donald Trump nominated for Nobel Peace Prize
Metro ^ | Sep 9th | Jen Mills

Posted on 09/09/2020 2:47:57 AM PDT by RandFan

US President Donald Trump has been nominated for the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize.

The nomination came from right-wing Norwegian politician Christian Tybring-Gjedde and relates to the ‘historic peace agreement’ between Israel and the United Arab Emirates. ‘For his merit, I think he has done more trying to create peace between nations than most other Peace Prize nominees,’ Tybring-Gjedde said to Fox News.

He said in his nomination letter: ‘As it is expected other Middle Eastern countries will follow in the footsteps of the UAE, this agreement could be a game changer that will turn the Middle East into a region of cooperation and prosperity.’

He also discussed the president’s ‘key role in facilitating contact between conflicting parties and … creating new dynamics in other protracted conflicts, such as the Kashmir border dispute between India and Pakistan, and the conflict between North and South Korea, as well as dealing with the nuclear capabilities of North Korea.’

Tybring-Gjedde also said that Trump had withdrawn many US soldiers from the Middle East.

Last year, Donald Trump said: ‘I think I’m going to get a Nobel Prize for a lot of things, if they gave it out fairly, which they don’t.

‘They gave it out — well, they gave one to Obama immediately upon his ascent to the presidency, and he had no idea why he got it. And you know what? That was the only thing I agreed with him on.’

If CNN hasn’t hired you yet, they should be in your email within the hour. ;)

Why was 0bama nominated before he was even elected President and not even participating in his job as a U.S. Senator?

I explained it—royal blood.

The elites have declared certain blood lines to be royal lines, and everyone is supposedly to bend the knee to the new royalty.

It’s not a waste of time if it makes their heads explode.

If you didn’t look at Fox News of the big news outlets, you wouldn’t know this happened.

CNN, ABC News, NBC News, and MSNBC do not have a single reference on their pages to this news. CBS is the only outlet besides Fox that has it, and it only mentions it with the snarky headline: “Far-right Norwegian politician nominates Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize”

If a tree falls in the woods...?

Obviously from your name, you are teacher. If not, you should be one. That’s not a compliment. As for your statement about CNN, you can go to hell a-hole.

Not to worry. The story will be dismissed because he was nominated by a “right-wing Christian”

Teacher317, I want to apologize for my last post to you. I thought you replying to another post I made on a different thread. However, that is no excuse. I freely admit I was wrong. I apologize. In the future, I will try to recognize what people are replying to me about so this will not happen again. Please accept my apology.

Now that I read your post in its context. It is funny and I appreciate that.

This is no longer any kind of honor. It is an award given out to deviants.

Gotta be a trick.

Hype for 45 days and then drop the ball.

He will be denied the award just days before the election; watch my words.

The same (Warmonger) POTUS who told the Military not to go all Chuck Norris to save Lives after Iran shot down one of our Drones.

Then why wasn’t Trump nominated four years ago before he was elected?

Well after they gave the Nobel Peace Prize to BO for doing nothing it certainly showed ‘the award is highly political’ rather than to those who have earned such a reward. And it comes with a cash prize of a million dollars or so.

I wouldn’t sweat if Trump didn’t get it....but if he did he’d likely offer the cash to some organization or worthy cause. But I’d be happy too if kept it! He’s been giving away his paycheck since he took office.

....”Trump’s foreign policy has been an amazing success”....

Conservapedia had to split, by year, into sub-articles to better manage ‘the long list’ of Trumps achievements!

Among President Trump’s ‘2017’ foreign policy achievements:

Leaving or announcing intention to leave globalist agreements, including the UN Population Fund, Global Compact on Migration, Paris climate agreement, and UNESCO, and giving a strong pro-sovereignty speech at the UN General Assembly.
Reducing U.S. contributions to the UN and challenging other NATO states to increase their contributions.
Reversing the Obama Administration’s lenient Cuba policy.
Recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

Among President Trump’s ‘2018’ foreign policy achievements:

Leaving or announcing intention to leave the United Nations Human Rights Council, Universal Postal Union, Global Compact for Refugees, and the Iran nuclear deal, and taking a tough stance against the International Criminal Court.
Giving another strong pro-sovereignty speech at the UN General Assembly.
Taking steps to reduce foreign aid when not in U.S. interests, such as to Pakistan and the PLO.
Moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
Taking an increasingly tough stance on China, criticizing South Africa’s leftist land policy, and promoting ties with Latin America’s conservative leaders.

Among President Trump’s ‘2019’ foreign policy achievements:

Leaving the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty and the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty, formally announcing the U.S.’s intention to leave the Paris agreement, and taking tough stances against the World Trade Organization and the International Criminal Court.
Renegotiating a better deal for the U.S. in the Universal Postal Union.
Giving yet another strongly conservative and nationalist speech at the UN General Assembly.
Expanding the pro-life Mexico City Policy.
Reaching agreements to reduce U.S. aid to NATO and South Korea.
Recognizing the Golan Heights as part of Israel and fully meeting all the provisions of the Jerusalem Embassy Act, among other pro-Israel actions.
Continuing to take strong action against U.S. adversaries such as China, Iran, North Korea, and Venezuela, while strengthening U.S. relationships with more conservative countries such as Israel, Australia, Brazil, Hungary, and Poland.
Creating the Commission on Unalienable Rights.

Thanks for that.

I think FP is his strong suit and he should run on it more especially against Biden who has achieved nothing in DC in 47 years.
