Nominating Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize is like nominating someone like Putin for the Nobel Peace Prize.

It can be claimed, by people looking for an angle, that Putin's Ukraine interventions would promote world peace, somehow.


Technically Putin should be included in the award since he helped get Trump elected :lol:


You know, you have a valid point there with that.

Well the noble peace prize went from the greatest accomplishment to a complete joke. Just the presidential medal of freedom. :roll:

Actually there is another achievement by the Trump administration to add to the list:

Israel and Bahrain on Sunday formally declared that they have made peace and established formal diplomatic relations, only the fourth such agreement between the Jewish state and an Arab country, and the second in weeks.

That big, fat, empty space in the middle must be Trump, right?

at least......


Really? How many countries did Obama "invade"?

Was the number above zero?

Bush invaded and occupied two countries. Iraq, and Afganistan. Obama did put a few boots on the ground in one tiny region of Syria near Iraq to support the Kurds in fighting ISIS. So that could arguably count as "invading" one additional country, though it was really just an extention of the Iraq theater of operations. Bush used American troops to ...."bring disorder" as he himself said once in a Freudian slip. In contrast Obama would not invade new countries, but preferred to encourage the local people of countries to do the hard work of...destablizing their own countries... by Obama supporting the uprisings of the Arab Spring via airstrikes. Trump pulled out that contingent from Syria, and threw the Kurds under the bus in the process. But Trump seems hell bent on starting a war of his own with Iran. But this antogonzing of Iran might have been part of plan he had to scare the Gulf States, and get them so afraid of an angry Iran that the Gulf States would run screaming into the arms of Israel (my sweet embraceable Jew). Hence this new development. A dangerous game but in short run it may have worked.

The Finnish gal has cheekbones that are just a tad wider. So she looks just a tad more Asian, and a tad less European than her Swedish near twin. Interesting.

I had an uncle who married an Estonian (I think they are Finns) and she made some awesome soup dishes.

Yeah I think you are right. It's fascinating what you can do with technology these days. Here's the average American Vs the average English woman for comparison

Trump doesn't deserve any big-name awards such as the NPP.

For the past four years, he has turned the US into the laughingstock of the world. :x

Obama basically got a Nobel prize for being the first black president...

Thus Trump objectively deserves it because he strengthened American - Russian ties, also successfully brokered several historical peace agreements in the Middle East, and basically reverted much of Obamas' bad foreign policy decisions. Not to mention he mostly tries to do what's morally correct , and not "politically" correct.
He has done a lot of good things, too bad he f'ed up the COVID 19 crisis though.

'Morally' Correct? Are we talking about the same prersident who has seperated immigrant children from their families at the border and stuffed them in cages like animals? The same president who turned his back on the Kurds and allowed them to be slaughtered by the Turkish army? The same president who cheats on his wife with pornstars?
