My VIP for this week is President Donald Trump because he has three nominations for the Nobel Peace Prize, which will be announced in October according to Olivia Pero at The Daily Signal.
After
Trump helped to bring the Cambodia-Thailand border conflict to a ceasefire
agreement, Cambodia announced on Friday that it will nominate Trump. Trump
warned Cambodia and Thailand last week that the U.S. would not offer a trade
agreement to either of them if they were still fighting.
In
June, two other nations nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize: Israel and
Pakistan. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while in the White House,
handed Trump a copy of a letter which “he said he sent to the Norwegian Nobel
Committee praising Trump’s work to end the Middle Eastern conflicts.”
The
third nomination came from Pakistan for Trump’s assistance in May in bringing
about a “ceasefire between India and Pakistan after the two nuclear powers and
long-time rivals spent four days fighting.”
According
to White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt, “It’s well past time that
President Turmp was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.” Trump has arranged an
average of “one peace deal or ceasefire per month since returning to office.”
I, for
one, will believe it when I see it. Since Trump has so many powerful enemies, I
will be surprised if he actually receives the Nobel Peace Prize. He is
definitely more worthy of it than Barack Obama who had not even been
inaugurated and had done nothing to bring about peace anywhere. Trump is
brokering peace in areas that most of us did not even realize were at war. An example
is the Cambodia-Thailand conflict.
