Not the Onion…
I remember when Black President Obama could raise both arms above shoulder height. Trump just isn’t as manly as Obama.
What about white President Obama?
IIRC they nominated him for the Piece of Shit Prize.
says a lot about pakistan govt.
Someone is trying to get an ally against India.
I’m pretty sure that they judge all of a person’s actions during the year (could be very wrong). I’m sure that just about anyone else would be as qualified if not much more. Can I get a peace prize for not starting a war?
It’s not ‘Pakistan’. Pakistan can’t nominate anyone. An individual can nominate someone, including members of assemblies and governments, members of international courts, uni professors, and previous Nobel laureates.
Governments can nominate people for the Nobel peace prize.
Article explicitly says it can.
Oh my fucking god
Does the nobel comite care?
Probably not. They did give the peace prize to Obama, who was OK-ing the bombing of Lybia at the time
I don’t think Trump wants one seeing how it’s an awwrd for the lunatic liberals
If Obama got one, why not?
While I agree Obama should have never gotten one (Before he ever really did anything besides not be Bush) and I’d hope they regret it given the uptick in drone strikes…
Let’s not pretend Trump ain’t a few steps down.
I meant that the prize is pretty worthless after awarding it to a president of the most war mongering country, who did absolutely nothing to change that. Trump hasn’t started any wars yet.
Trump hasn’t started any wars yet.
Only because directly bombing another country doesn’t count as declaration of war under broken US system.
We’re setting the bar really really low :D
Kissinger got one so fuck it
Even better example, thank you.
Because it pisses him off that a black man got the award and that’s a beautiful thing.
