Yeah I'm all for pointing out how ludicrous it was to give Obama a Peace prize. But it's ludicrous to somehow pretend the guy currently actively inflaming genocide, aiding a foreign country firing missiles completely unprovoked at another foreign country, and sending residents to concentration camps without even the pretense of due process is somehow more deserving.

Just wait until we crack open an American history book for you, friend.

It's going to be illuminating.

The point here isn't that Donald is a good, virtuous leader. It's that US foreign policy and every former president have set the bar so low for peace that Donald can do all this shit and he's still better-qualified for an NPP by virtue of the fact that he actively ended several wars during his first term.
