U.S. President Donald Trump was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize for his work in reaching an agreement to work toward de-nuclearization of the Korean peninsula.
The U.S leader was nominated by two members of Norway’s governing Progress Party, according to state broadcaster NRK. The deadline for this year’s prize passed in January, so this nomination would make him eligible for next year. It is unclear whether he was nominated for this year’s prize.
“What’s going on now is historic,” Progress Party member Per-Willy Amundsen told NRK. “A process is underway to ensure world peace in the future. It’s a fragile process, but we must of course do what we can to help this process bring good results.”

I don't think it is time yet. Obama already soiled the name, not that it was good anyway, of the Nobel Peace Prize. I'd like to see some more action before giving it to Trump. It's not my prize to give, however, so there you have it. I guess if they do give it before the fact, even if he does find peace, it will just be a meaningless prize henceforth.
I blame the internet and social media for people's lack of patience today.

Let me guess ... suddenly all the trash talk about the Nobel is reversed?
What a well deserved honor, eh?

Seriously... Rodman deserves it more than Obama did.

The Nobel Peace Prize should go to someone who accomplished easy sh$t, like Obama did.
Something more prestigious should be invented for those rare humans who are able to accomplish what President Trump is striving for, and starting to achieve now.

Please no!
At this point, Trump hasn't done anything worthy of a Nobel Prize! After Obama, it's reputation is already tarnished... need we tarnish it even more?
