I thought the idea of anybody nominating Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize stretched beyond the confines of plausible reality, but then I discovered the Nobel Peace Prize recipient of 1973.
The thing is Trump only wants the peace prize because Obama got one. He literally has the mind of a toddler.
He wanted a Nobel Peace Prize after he saw that Obama got one. He wanted his silly little parade after he saw Macron get one. Maybe it’s time to show him what some other rulers got.
In all fairness his talks with China were incredibly influential. China stills expresses appeciation for Kissenger to this day (unfortunately imo). It feels really wrong knowing the rest of his life but I can see why this would happen
Prior to the murders OJ Simpson got some humanitarian award.
I remember someone posting a meme on Lemmy asking how Kissinger was still alive like a week before he died. We need a few repeats.
Nobel Prize committee made quite some blunders over the years but they really swapped war crimes and peace tables that year.
Multiple recipients of that prize have gone on to commit or support genocide and other war crimes.
