Nah. Already happened when Obama got the Nobel Prize for being black.

Two anti-immigration anti-tax lawmakers from Norway, go figure. They should have waited until after his visit to Vietnam. I see where they had recommendations for Putin and Fidel Castro in the past, he is in good company.

Doesn't appear that Trump will get the nomination.

Nominating Obama before he even did anything has already turned this into a participation trophy.

We don't even know the outcome of N Korea.

These people need to do something productive with their lives...
Well, Obama attacked independent nations, drone-bombed civilians, enabled Iran's nuclear program and capitulated to N. Korea at every turn. Of COURSE he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump claimed back in February he had been nominated by Japan for his work towards peace with North Korea. Reportedly there are 301 nominations. Being nominated does not mean one gets to the “ short list”.

The deciding committee does not confirm nor deny nominations and will not comment on nominations. The winner will be announced in October.

I don't know if racist comments are allowed in the politics section, but shame on you.

Trump doesn't need to win. He'll be crowing about this nomination, as though it was a win, even though it was made by two neo-Nazis. His base is too stupid to realize anything about that and will be thinking that he has won. They give more credibility to alt-rightists, than to any respectable people.
