It’s over for the Nobel Peace Prize …After a 119-year run, the Nobel Peace Prize faces cancellation from some members of the left now that President Donald Trump has been nominated for it again.
On Wednesday, Christian Tybring-Gjedde, a member of the Norwegian parliament for the populist Progress Party, nominated Trump for the prize over the historic peace deal between Israel and the UAE that his administration has reached.
“For his merit, I think he has done more trying to create peace between nations than most other Peace Prize nominees,” Tybring-Gjedde, who also serves as the chairman of the Norwegian delegation to the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, said to Fox News.Norwegian Parliament member Christian Tybring-Gjedde nominated the president, citing efforts to resolve world conflict. He said: “Trump has broken a 39-year-old streak of American Presidents either starting a war or bringing the United States an international armed conflict.” pic.twitter.com/m5Qu3DibnB— Kaya Jones (@KayaJones) September 9, 2020
“I’m not a big Trump supporter. The committee should look at the facts and judge him on the facts – not on the way he behaves sometimes. The people who have received the Peace Prize in recent years have done much less than Donald Trump. For example, Barack Obama did nothing.”...............
The Atlantic staff writer Graeme Wood published a nearly 1500-word-long screed Friday calling for the Nobel Peace Prize to be outright canceled. Why? Because #OrangeManBad and because Tybring-Gjedde, whose views on immigration do not coincide with the left’s view on the issue, is allegedly a “troll.”........
The same disease that prevents members of the left from giving the president any credit seems to have also infected Biden. During a speaking event with the Jewish community this week, he claimed Trump is “dangerous” to Israel and bad for the Jewish people. Given the big announcement this week that even Bahrain is now normalizing relations with Israel thanks to the Trump administration, the claim by Biden seemed outrageously absurd..............

My Take - I belong to a an eclectic e-mail group that daily discusses every issue that confronts the nation and the world. When the first nomination hit the news most of us pretty much agreed the left would go into sack cloth and ashes over this. With the second nomination, and I can't ever believe they're reaction is even better! They're now so hysterical they're practically frothing at the mouth!!!!
Schadenfreude!
