After the recent historic meeting between North Korea's Kim Jong Un and South Korea's President Moon Jae-in, there has been much talk of the level of credit Donald Trump deserves for this diplomatic breakthrough.

At a rally in Michigan on Saturday, Trump claimed personal credit for "all of it" and the crowd shouted "Nobel! Nobel! Nobel!"


As in the Nobel Peace Prize.

Turns out others agree, as 18 Republican members of the House on Tuesday sent a letter to the Nobel Committee officially nominating Trump for the honor.

The letter reads:

“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." “Although North Korea has evaded demands from the international community to cease its aggression for decades, President Trump's peace through strength policies are working and bringing peace to the Korean peninsula," the letter says. “We can think of no one more deserving of the Committee's recognition in 2019 than President Trump for his tireless work to bring peace to our world."

According to the Nobel Committee's website, "qualified nominators" for the Nobel Peace Prize include “members of national assemblies and national governments (cabinet members/ministers) of sovereign states as well as current heads of state."

This nomination would be for the 2019 prize.

Video Of Trump Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Is All Kinds Of Awkward After Media Ban Backfires Spectacularly

President Donald Trump's decision to ban CNN, MS NOW, and Politico from the White House prompted a network boycott in solidarity and a ribbon cutting ceremony on the White House's South Lawn came with completely indecipherable audio because the press pool has decided to stop filming daily events.

Footage from a Monday ribbon cutting ceremony revealed that the sounds of the Marine One chopper just yards away drowned out Trump's remarks. The far-right network Newsmax was on the scene, and even they had to admit that Trump's attack against the free press seemed to be “backfiring just a little bit.”

House Republicans Get Hit With Epic Reminder After Tweet Warning About Communists Building Walls

After the official House Republicans X account tweeted a warning that "every communist country eventually builds a wall," critics were quick to point out the party's general hypocrisy.

President Donald Trump has long advocated for the United States to construct a border wall, making it a cornerstone of his immigration policy back in 2016. Since then, Republicans have continued to defend the wall as necessary for reasons of national security.

Mike Pence Reveals Trump's Telling Response After Pence Offered His Prayers Following Jan. 6 Rift

Vice President Mike Pence told the audience during his appearance at the Economic Club of Washington, D.C. that President Donald Trump rejected his offer of "praying" for him following their public rift in the aftermath of the January 6 insurrection.

Pence has long appeared to play both sides, on one hand condemning Trump for pushing the "Big Lie" that the 2020 election was fraudulent, while on the other accusing Democrats of not advocating for election integrity. But he has been out of Trump's good graces for years now since his decision to certify Joe Biden's victory in the 2020 presidential election.
