          Nah, that is the problem, Trump craves outside admiration, he won’t get it by doing that.

          He will more likely try to bribe someone to get it.

          Just look at the FIFA Peace Prize, it was created specifically for “Tantrum Trump”, carries zero meaning (doesn’t even have it’s own wikipedia page), and I would be surprised if it exist in five years.

    It is solely up to the discretion of the Nobel-peace-prize committee, which war criminal, war monger, or propaganda tool is to be the recipient.

    They should issue a statement that as long as paramilitary units execute citizens, their political leader does not even qualify for nomination

    You see, that is a PR mistake. Answering to the possible misunderstanding from USA’s side of what a prize like that entices.

    If I get attacked verbally or physically by a crazy old man on the street, I have the confidence and stature not to respond, not in kind nor at all.

    By answering to a behavior without a specific question even having been formulated (and a declaration of intention is not a question) is getting to his level.

    She’s going to do it to try to save the country whatever the committee says. Play the gift-golden-trinkets game.
