Peace Prize Politics

From PJ Media:

President Trump has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize by a Norwegian lawmaker, the Associated Press reports.

While President Trump has done more to deserve the Nobel Peace Prize than Barack Obama, don’t expect him to be a contender for the award. “Three of the four prize-winning American presidents have been Democrats: Obama, Woodrow Wilson and Jimmy Carter,” explained Mary Kay Linge in the New York Post last year. “The sole Republican is Theodore Roosevelt, who won it in 1906 as a progressive whose outlook bears little resemblance to that of today’s GOP.”

    Missing from the AP story, but in the Fox News coverage, is the rest of the quote from Tybring-Gjedde:

    “The people who have received the Peace Prize in recent years have done much less than Donald Trump. For example, Barack Obama did nothing.””
