Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News

Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Bonsall, Tuesday nominated President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize, considered one of the most prestigious awards in the world. The honor, awarded almost every year with a few exceptions, is given to people who have "done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses," according to the Norwegian Nobel Institute. "Not since Ronald Reagan has an American president better represented the national resolve of peace through strength or the fundamental case for a world without war," wrote Issa, vice chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee and senior member of the Judiciary Committee. "Remarkably, it was the 2024 election of Donald Trump -- more than 10 weeks before his swearing in - - that tangibly kickstarted the cause of peace in numerous regions of the world, and we are already seeing the benefits.

When you alienate the whole freedom loving world against you including long time neighbors. You don't qualify for the Nobel peace prize. Just sayin

We all know what that 'Peace Prize' is - a Joke. Remember when they HANDED it to obama within his first couple of months in office - for basically having done NOTHING.

LOL!
You have to discount the Nobel Peace Prize because you know Trump doens't stand a chance in hell of getting it.

Also Obama received it October 9, 2009. He was sworn in January 20, 2009. That's 9 months, not two. Why? All laid out here. Now try and imagine what could possibly be said about Trump in the context of peace. Just try.

If Republicans didn't have Obama to deflect to. They wouldn't know what to do with themselves. Just sayin

Trump has inspired hateful people to hate, throughout the world. Nothing peaceful about that whatsoever

He had been in office 11 days when he was nominated.

Apparently DOGE Lord Commander Elon has also been nominated.

Also interesting that Mr. Issa's nomination came 30 days after the deadline for nominations (31 January) and as such, is not valid.

Lewzer, on the other hand, was nominated 2 month before he took office.

Unless Daryl Issa was contacted by the Norwegian Nobel Committee and invited to submit a Nobel Peace Prize nomination, his tickling of Old Senescent's bawlsack will be given precisely the same consideration as the nomination I intend writing for that award for my dog, just as soon as Leon's ketamine guy drops by.
