But if Kim who is an actual dictator was awarded The Nobel Peace Prize you would be ok with that?

I don't think they give Peace Prizes to people who threaten world leaders with "Fire and Fury" to make peace.

And they don't give physics prizes to people who discover General Relativity (1915) and Special Relativity (1905).
I mean Nobel refused to give Einstein the Nobel Prize for those, but gave it to him in 1921 for the law of photoelectric effect as a "make up call" in basketball language.
Nobel have no credibility, especially after the very unproven President Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize.

Yes, very confusing. In regard to the poll, if a good deal is made, Trump should get the peace prize. However, I think pundits and the media are jumping the gun. This is going to be very tricky. The White House has been saying all along this might not happen.

On Friday, North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un and South Korean president Moon Jae-in came together for a historic meeting that resulted in a once-unimaginable pledge: The two nations will work to officially end the Korean War and denuclearize the peninsula.

Who deserves credit for this momentous meeting and the push toward peace? Donald Trump, says South Korean foreign minister Kang Kyung-wha. “He’s been determined to come to grips with this from day one,” she recently told CNN.

And he may soon have a Nobel Peace Prize to show for it. Trump and Kim are currently the favorites to win the prize, according to one British oddsmaker, and some of Trump’s aides are telling reporters that a lasting thaw between North and South Korea should win Trump the award.

" Before President Trump trashes the Iran nuclear deal, he might consider: If he could negotiate an identical deal with Kim Jong Un, it would astonish the world and win him the Nobel Peace Prize. "
Has anyone asked Buchanan for an update?
