For the past few months, Donald Trump has been signing off his Truth Social posts by saying “Thank you for your attention to this matter.” Setting aside the fact that he is misusing that phrase, which is usually intended to admonish lazy customer service reps, anyone who has actually been paying attention to Trump has observed his obsession with awarding himself a Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump’s egomaniacal fixations and malignant narcissism have naturally spread to his cult followers who glorify his every word and deed. The result has been a parade of Trump toadies seeking to regale him with all manner of honors and trophies, most of which were made up just for him. And nowhere is this more evident than on Fox News.

On Friday Fox News tied their Trump worship to his recently launched Middle East war mongering. In a segment discussing the justification for Trump going to war against Iran, they booked Julian Epstein (no, not that Epstein), a frequent guest on Fox News who fits the profile of a “Fox News Democrat” (i.e. an alleged Democrat who always bashes Democrats). Epstein wasted little time in slobbering all over Trump and declaring that…

“What I think Donald Trump is doing is, is heroic. I think if this is successful, it will be something that could qualify him once again for a Nobel Peace Prize.”

Of course. What better reason could there be to award the Nobel Peace Prize than the unprovoked military assault on a smaller country that they cavalierly accused of being an “imminent threat” with no evidence to back it up? Epstein even said that the U.S. “will be seen as liberators” in Iran. Which is chillingly reminiscent of Dick Cheney saying prior to George W. Bush attacking Iraq that “My belief is we will, in fact, be greeted as liberators.”

This isn’t the first time that Epstein has proposed that Trump get the Nobel Peace Prize, and for the same reason. Last year when Trump bombed Iran, supposedly “obliterating” all of their nuclear capabilities, Epstein posted this tweet…

Around the same time, Epstein’s proposal was taken up by Republicans in Congress. Sen. Bernie Moreno introduced a resolution for the Senate to formally nominate Trump for the Nobel. Moreno said that Trump deserved it because he had “just pulled off…peace in the Middle East with Iran’s nuclear arsenal decimated.” And also because of “his historic brokerage of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran.” An agreement that Trump appears to have obliterated, if it ever actually existed.

The manic compulsion by Epstein, Moreno, and Fox News to pay tribute to Trump is further proof that Trump is not the head of a political party. He is the Dear Leader of a pseudo-religious cult. And his disciples are devoted to exalting this modern day “Prince of Peace” at all times. What else should be expected for the man who appointed himself the Chairman of the “Board of Peace” that he created?
