I was asked a yes/no question 3 posts up.
Trumps not yet awarded Peace Prize already has a topic among his fanboys on here... hence the meme.
It's discussion gets the same  Obama got.

President Trump has stated when asked about the Nobel peace prize
"Peace is the prize."

You know what ... if Trump gets his deserved Nobel Peace Prize he should tell them to shove it.
Results is what counts, and all the stupidity by the Trump hating kindergarten class won't change a thing. Against 90+ percent anti-Trump media coverage, and 95 percent of the lunatics on PA OT general, Trump still has accomplished more in these first 18 months than the last 3-4 presidents combined.
But to the juveniles on board, the treason committed by the DoJ, FBI, CIA, etc., is not wrong at all since it's directed at Trump.
Not a single mention ... it's OK for the FBI and CIA to illegally declare war on our President and our citizens; that's OK to the haters and the clowns.
Why have you kept quiet by this?
I am a proud fanboy, so any attempt to discredit me by calling me that won't work. It's your foolishness that is already on record; your legacy so to speak.

Its over? I must have missed that...
Because you are moving the target because even you know nothing has really been accomplished in NK yet but you are ready to give him a prize. That topic has ZERO to do with the one your brought up in regards to the peace prize.

North Korea says they will not give up their nukes.
Quote:
President Trump, increasingly concerned that his summit meeting in Singapore next month with North Korea’s leader could turn into a political embarrassment, has begun pressing his aides and allies about whether he should take the risk of proceeding with a historic meeting that he had leapt into accepting, according to administration and foreign officials.
Mr. Trump was both surprised and angered by a statement issued on Wednesday by the North’s chief nuclear negotiator, who declared that the country would never trade away its nuclear weapons capability in exchange for economic aid, administration officials said. The statement, while a highly familiar tactic by the North, represented a jarring shift in tone after weeks of conciliatory gestures.
Mr. Trump’s aides have grown concerned that the president — who has said that “everyone thinks” he deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts — has signaled that he wants the summit meeting too much. The aides also worry that Mr. Kim, sensing the president’s eagerness, is prepared to offer assurances that will fade over time.

Robert Kelly is an American professor of political science currently living and teaching in South Korea. He tweeted his views from that perspective on the "peace" talks.

Thoughts on Moon’s meeting with Trump tomorrow: 1) It increasingly looks like the Moon administration overstated North Korea’s willingness to deal. Moon will probably get an earful over that.
|
Quote:
|
3) Flattering Trump into diplomacy is likely also why Moon’s government credited Trump with driving NK to negotiation through maximum pressure and suggested that Trump receive a Nobel peace prize.
|
Quote:
|
4) It is an open secret in Korea that this was just flattering Trump to prevent him from starting a war. No one actually believes it. My students & colleagues laugh at the suggestion. No one thought the western media wd actually start seriously debating it. Trump is loathed here.

I expect the Fanboyz charges of anti-Trumper for this post of what appears to be an accurate picture of what is going on in South Korea.

South Korea doesn't want a war.
They will do everything they can to A) avoid open conflict. NK can hit back against the US but it can easily hit back against them. B) preserve the regime in the North. It isn't ideal but it beats any alternative.
