Nobel Peace Prize Laureate is….

The Trump nominations weren’t related to the newest Israel/Palestinian Peace Deal. They were based on ending the India/Pakistan conflict, The Congo and Rwanda Settlement, The Cambodia/Thailand Ceasefire, the Armenia/Azerbaijan settlement, and the earlier temporary ceasefire in Gaza.
So kindly let me know who has accomplished more this year, and that’s excluding the current peace plan in Gaza…

As I said in another thread
Has his foreign policy made the world a safer place?
MIddle East/Israel - I am not sure what has changed that will carry on for years.
India/Pakistan - India is moving much closer to China. Also, it can be an arguement that things with Pakistan and India did not really "flare up" until President Trump was in office. Nothing has really changed there. India and Pakistan have been "at odds" with various firing at each other for decades.
Ukraine/Russia - still waiting for that 24 hour time limit to start to bring peace there.
China relations/DPRK - relations with China continue to be downward, though that is actually a continuing from President Biden's time. I would say that DPRK is probably more powerful now than they were a year ago.
Thailand/Cambodia - I think that President Trump had something to do with the ceasefire, but the overall situation is really unchanged, other than the PM of Thailand has been removed and replaced.
Africa - dont know much about it Revisit in a year. (The biggest fighting group in Rwanda/Congo says that the agreement signed does not apply to them.)

Africa is getting peacefully quiet now that about a million folks have died due to the abrupt US AID withdrawal. Plus there is peaceful DC thanks to the machine guns and mine resistant vehicles.
You wonder if folks remember this is about promoting fraternity between nations and reduction of armies... The Sudanese ERR is really a remarkable story and model for the world, although I'd argue they are a bit more on the humanitarian side than the "promotion of peace" side: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_Response_Rooms
All of that being said, I could see it being Trump. Indeed the US has brokered a number of initial agreements between conflicting nations. While one could argue that the agreements were coerced from a heavy, threatening, tariff-loving, orange hand, it nonetheless has occurred and is a good argument for Trump being awarded the prize for peace, his "I'll end the Ukraine war in one day" epic failure and his "shoot priests with rubber bullets from the roof in Portland" notwithstanding, of course.

Venezuelan politician Maria Corina Machado wins Nobel Peace Prize
What did the bookmakers say? Long shot? How much would I have made betting on her….

I put the word ‘effectively’ in there lest someone thinks the Congress who’s afraid to be in session lest they pass a discharge petition on the Epstein files actually issued a declaration of war.

I’ve been thinking about next year. I think his best shot is to start a whole bunch of little wars. Push the world to the brink of WW3, then step in at the very point of no return and stop the war. That should get him the recognition that he so richly deserves…

I hope he is truly saddened when he finds out. I hope it reopens all the wounds he has about never being accepted by the cool kids.

He could still win the Economics Nobel for his innovations involving tariffs.

Oh yeah, so cool.

Jen Rubin and Keith Olbermann are my favorite cool kids.
Education is extremely important.

I think most people already recognize him as a sociopath.

I find them to be useless midwits. But I have the problem where I only see their work when it goes viral and that’s usually when they’re at their worst.

I bet you didn't see Olbermann's take on Kirk's assassin. That the motivation wasn't political, but rather, strictly personal, because Kirk said mean things about trans people, and the assassin's significant other was trans.
It probably didn't go viral, because that's his normal content, not extreme. Though I guess it went viral enough that I saw it. I just assume it didn't pop up in your x feed.
