Nobel Peace Prize for Donald Trump?

Ok, somebody connect the dots for me on this one:

As North Korea and South Korea pledged to end hostilities and work toward denuclearization, some people have suggested US President Donald Trump should win the Nobel Peace Prize.

Mother Nature may have had more to do with Kim's statement to curtail his nuclear development.

And, in terms of the buddying up with S Korea, well, the S Korean leader was looking to do this for awhile. 

But, I am sure Trump will take credit for it all !

To me it looks like the Trumpers are celebrating in the middle of the first quarter.

One would hope that the members of the Nobel committee take character along with accomplishment into consideration when selecting candidates for the prize.

If, indeed, they do, someone with Trump’s background would never be considered let alone selected.

It would be like awarding Hitler, or any other authoritarian leader, with the same 'prize'.

I don't think that Himmler or Goering groveled this much. 

House lawmakers formally nominate Trump for 2019 Nobel Peace Prize

EXCLUSIVE –  A group of 18 Republican lawmakers have signed their names to a letter formally nominating President Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize -- the latest development in a growing push to award the president the honor for his work toward peace in the Korean Peninsula.
The letter, sent by Rep. Luke Messer, R-Ind. to the Norwegian Nobel Committee on Tuesday, and signed by 17 other members, says Trump has worked “tirelessly to apply maximum pressure to North Korea to end its illicit weapons programs and bring peace to the region.”   
“His Administration successfully united the international community, including China, to impose one of the most successful international sanctions regimes in history,” the letter says. “The sanctions have decimated the North Korean economy and have been largely credited for bringing North Korea to the negotiating table.”
The letter is signed by 17 other members, including Reps Mark Meadows, R-N.C., Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., Diane Black, R-Tenn., and Steve King, R-Iowa.
