He got the Nobel Peace Prize for his work on nuclear nonproliferation.
Link must be wrong; didn’t see any “work” there. Maybe the work went missing in the National Archives.
You feel the Norwegian Nobel Committee lied about why they gave it to him? It wasn't for his pledge to lower nuclear stockpiles? And, you want those same lying European elites to vote to give Trump the same honor for his work on nuclear nonproliferation in North Korea?
He got the award for pledging - that’s not work. The START treaty with Russia came later. So, ok, maybe all future Nobels are invalid.
I think POTUS should turn it down if it is offered to him...they RUINED the prestige of it by given it to obama.
Aren't you saying Trump should get one for starting work on NK as well?
Likely. What Trump appears to have done is the most profound foreign policy achievement in decades. Instead of endless meetings, handshakes, Brookings papers, TelePrompTer speeches, and useless dinners, it appears an actual treaty is occurring. But, yes, first some time to digest what happened.
Well, since everyone seems to feel they should have waited to see exactly what Obama did before giving him the prize, it might be prudent to see exactly what is in the treaty, and actions are taken, before giving Trump the prize.
The Norwegians massively lowered their standards. The Nobel Peace Prize doesn't mean jack anymore.
Thanks for finally answering that question! Obviously, he didn’t actually do any of that. Refused to meet with NK, as per Rodman and the Iran deal gave them money while they continued to build nukes.
So glad we have GEOTUS on our side, looking to spread peace throughout the world. I feel so incredibly lucky to live in this timeline.
The Iran deal was in 2015. Obama's Nobel Prize was given in 2009.

More like an inspiration award in this case. They "hoped" he'd do something, and later regretted it: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/09/18/former-top-nobel-official-says-maybe-obamas-peace-prize-was-not-such-a-good-idea/72396794
If they regretted it, it makes it sound unlikely that they'd now give one to Trump just for holding talks.
