It seems democrats have been lying as Trump gets another Nobel P.P. nomination from Europe after diplomatic victories

So many democrats have been saying Trump isn't respected by world leaders !!! That can't true when so many world leaders want to nominate Trump for the NPP !!!

So why are they lying ?
Demonizing the opponent aids in their power grab !!! Could that be it ?

Trump picks up another Nobel Peace Prize nomination
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/tru...ope-diplomatic


Finnish member of the European Parliament (MEP) called for the American president to receive the honor.
“It is hard to imagine a president of the United States from the last decades, or a current head of state, who would deserve more the Committee’s recognition in 2021 than President Trump for his efforts to build peace in the world,” Huhtasaari writes

1)Trump was first nominated by a Norwegian Parliament member
2)Days later, a Swedish Parliament member nominated Trump
3-5)Vilhelm Junnila, a Member of Finland's Parliament, also nominated Trump -- along with Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Bahrain's King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa
6-9)Last month, three members of the European Parliament nominated Trump
10 through ......) a group of Australian law professors backed Trump for the award

All the noms came from right wing party members. So... yeah, whatever. They might have meant a bit more if they came from neutral parties.

Commendably, the PP went to the World Food Programme.

I hate to inform you that ANYONE can be nominated for a Nobel Prize. Send me your name and I'll nominate you. Please.

It's pretty disgusting that Trump (or Stephen Miller or others associated with Trump), has been working behind the scenes to get people to nominate him. Trump, the man of no honor, is lusting for the honor.

Like everything else about this drəguuaṇt, Trump is all image and no substance.

Obviously there's no firm definition of "World Leader", but I can't help but feel that the second vice-speaker for Sweden's Transportation and Communications Committee is a bit of a stretch...

False assertion, even if it is not your assertion.

The people nominating Trump for this are not world leaders for the most part, in fact most are virtually unknown outside of fringe European right wing political circles. The exception would be Netanyahu, of course, the corrupt Israeli prime minister who needs Trump to stay in power and out of jail.

The way to work Trump is to appeal to his vanity, or put money in his pocket, or both if possible.

Bahrain has two military bases, and all Trump has to do is 'suggest' that one or both could be closed. He is not above a little arm twisting, as we have seen. It's the same reason these small countries book rooms at the Trump hotel, it's not for the view or the price.

Trump has been making promises and calling in favors, it is clear. The Nobel Commission can easily see through this, the rumors are circulating and it is easy to see what Trump has been up to.

He is largely disliked by leaders of other countries, it should be noted that he was not nominated by any world leaders - not a single one; but rather by far right parliament members in Scandinavian Countries and 3 law professors in Australia.

Soooo when you talk about nominations for the NPP - its not what Trump made it out to be. Notwithstanding the fact that he DIDNT WIN. Hes a bag of hot air He is also just jealous of Obama... always has been... always will be.. and its his main driving force - he's a waste of skin and space.

Obama won the NPP. But NOT Trump
