Trump badly wants a Nobel Peace Prize. Most on the committee oppose him. Wapo: President Donald Trump has long quested after a Nobel Peace Prize, a distinction that would put him in a vaunted and exclusive club. But unlike a U.S. presidential campaign, winning a Nobel Peace Prize depends on an electorate of five — and Trump may not have a majority.
Trump’s desire for a Nobel has been a through-current of both of his terms, but his effort has escalated in recent months. He has mused aloud that the peace deal in Ukraine that he worked on in recent weeks might be one key to the prize. But at least three of the five Norwegian deciders have criticized Trump publicly, making his path to winning their votes far from clear. -- nordy

Because of Netanyahu I have learned to hate - not only him - but also the IDF. Israel deserves to be bombed back to the dark ages for the horrors they have inflicted on Palestinians. Then deserted as Chernobyl was. Susan
I hear you. I’d like to see all the perpetrators held accountable, and I’d like to see all the Israeli people who have protested the war given a homeland alongside the Palestinians. Anyone willing to share Jerusalem in solidarity with one another may be granted safe haven.

They grant a Nobel to someone deserving and usually quite humble…DT is neither.
