He has embraced America\u2019s tyrannical enemies and alienated our allies. He has withdrawn the U.S. from critical agreements that have kept the nation safe.

While Trump and his cult followers are celebrating this news, there&#8217;s really much less there than they think. In fact, this nomination means nothing at all. Here are a couple of relevant quotes from <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/4ec1ce1ff6cf9d7321d9cad200650e2c\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">an article by the Associated Press<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;An <strong>anti-immigrant Norwegian lawmaker<\/strong> said Wednesday that he has nominated U.S. President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in the Middle East.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Nominations must be sent to the Norwegian Nobel Committee by Feb. 1, meaning <strong>the deadline to nominate people for this year\u2019s peace prize has passed.<\/strong>&#8220;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Tybring-Gjedde was one of two Norwegian lawmakers who <strong>nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2018<\/strong> for efforts to bring reconciliation between North and South Korea.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>This is a repeat performance by a dedicated Trump-fluffer who is determined to help Trump satisfy his obsessive, narcissistic jealousy of President Obama. In other words, nothing to get excited about. Unless you\u2019re Trump, who hammered out 17 tweets.
