…by Pakistan! Pakistan to nominate Trump for Nobel Peace Prize | Reuters
“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.
Some analysts in Pakistan said the move might persuade Trump to think again about potentially joining Israel in striking Iran’s nuclear facilities. Pakistan has condemned Israel’s action as a violation of international law and a threat to regional stability.”
Don’t you have to think once, before you can think again?
Many people are allowed to nominate people for the peace prize, so that’s no honor in itself. And he could not receive the award this year as the nomination deadline was in February.
Altho a nomination to any of the Science prizes in meaningful, a nom for the peace prize is meaningless- tens of "thousands of members of academies, university professors, scientists, previous Nobel Prize laureates and members of parliamentary bodies can nominate. "
There is no criteria.
In fact some CA University Professor nominated severa? One? prisoners on Death Row, just so that it would look like those were criminals who should not be executed. The meaningless Nomination was of course mentioned in most newspaper articles, as if it meant something.
The Literature Prize also has a host of who can nominate.
Fortunately, he’s so reviled globally that he doesn’t stand a chance, and it’s one vote he can’t fix or sue to have overturned so we get to see him lose his shit about it. That’s always amusing.
Some of the people nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in the past are Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, Rush Limbaugh, Benito Mussolini, Fidel Castro, Vladimir Putin, Elon Musk, and Michael Jackson.
In short, he wants to be respected, loved and appreciated. That’s tough, especially given that I don’t think he is even loved by his wife. Not sure how his children feel.
Don’t neglect actual laureates such as Elihu Root, Woodrow Wilson, Cordell Hull, Henry Kissinger, Mother Teresa, Aung San Suu Kyi, and Yasser Arafat for their contributions to ‘peace’.
Why doesn’t he just have FAUX News announce that he won it? The MAGAts will believe it and anyone who contradicts is just part of the gang of Biden-Hillary-Obama Deep State poopyhead meanies. Facts, truth, reality? Who gives a fuck?
I’m sure he can get one of those Franklin Mint-type places to make him one (or several) of these. Hell, get it done in China, or Pakistan. No prob.
Course, he did that to try to end the war, not start one… and it wasn’t the act he was awarded for. I don’t foresee Donald Trump lifting a finger, let alone getting serious $ from Congress, to help rebuild a war-torn Iran.
I say give him the award. It will be just like the military parade. Everything he ever wanted but no dopamine in return because his brain is broken and all he will ever have is want want want but no satisfaction when he actually gets something.
Give him every award, bury him in how meaningless they are. However, this does presume that there is some small part of his ego, some inner child with mashed potatoes in his hair, who knows he didn’t earn it and doesn’t deserve it. The other 99% of Trump’s ego can probably block that out with shouting so it might not work.
