Donald Trump Has Now Officially Been Nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize

That escalated quickly.

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.

Ted Cruz's Epic Freudian Slip About 'Pedophiles' During Senate Speech Resurfaces—And Oof

Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz was widely mocked for an October video that resurfaced and showed him offering some bipartisan advice during a Senate hearing, only for his advice to go completely off the rails after an awkward "verbal slip" that made him look as if he was defending "pedophiles."

That's really not the best look considering what we know from the latest release of documents related to the Epstein files, which contain information about some of President Donald Trump's former friend and associate Jeffrey Epstein's most high-profile clients and enablers. The late disgraced financier was a convicted pedophile and sex trafficker.
