I hope everyone here clearly understands... [View all]

...Donald Trump is never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever going to get the Nobel Peace Prize.

Never.

Not in a million years.

The mere concept of the thought is so incredibly laughable beyond all words.

He is the absolute antithesis of what the people behind the prize have in mind as it relates to the type of person they have in mind for the award.

They also know that people who get the prize never lobby for it. That would inherently cheapen its value.

The only reason that he brings it up is that so when he is inevitably denied the prize--because there has been absolutely nothing that he has done to deserve it--it gives him something to whine and complain about.

That's the only reason his supporters talk about it. They know full well he's never going to get it.

It's eternal victimhood with this guy. That's all it is. That's the only thing it's about.

Anyways, I'm hoping it will be Chef Jose Andres and World Central Kitchen who receive the award this year. But if not, it will go to some other person or organization who likewise deserve it.

And it will never go to Donald Trump.
