Nobel: Trump Nominated, Obama Denigrated

The Daily Wire reports Christian Tybring-Gjedde - a member of the Norwegian Parliament - has nominated President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize. He based the nomination on the administration’s help in facilitating a peace deal between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Tybring-Gjedde told Fox News:

For his merit, I think he has done more trying to create peace between nations than most other Peace Prize nominees. 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,

Obama was given the prize so the Norwegian Nobel Committee could appear “woke.” It was blatant “virtue signaling” of which, it seems, Tybring-Gjedde does not approve.
