On Monday, President Donald Trump was nominated for the Nobel Peace Price. I’m sure Nancy Pelosi is punching the air right now.
As Rep. Darrell Issa posted on X, “Today I will nominate @realDonaldTrump for the Nobel Peace Prize. No one deserves it more.”
This nomination comes after an intense meeting last week when Trump asked Ukraine’s President Zelensky to leave the Oval Office after the greedy twerp disrespected the United States and even attempted to threaten violence rather than seek peace.
Today I will nominate @realDonaldTrump for the Nobel Peace Prize. No one deserves it more.

Issa’s deputy chief of staff and communications director Jonathan Wilcox also noted Trump’s efforts to foster peace in the Middle East. He told The Hill, “Congressman Issa recently led a Congressional delegation to four Middle East nations—he observed first-hand and from several heads of state that the spirit of peace and moving away from conflict is real and multilateral.”
“From the time of his election and after being sworn in, President Trump has inspired and promoted the cause of peace—and in a way we have not heard in many years. His advocacy is an aspiration of a world without war, and we are seeing this come into focus in several regions of the world today – not just one,” Wilcox added.

Rep. Issa isn’t the only one who feels this way. Secretary of State Marco Rubio robustly supported President Trump’s strategy for brokering a peace agreement between Ukraine and Russia during a Sunday interview.
Rubio, speaking on ABC News’s “This Week,” suggested that if Trump were a Democrat, his efforts would likely receive widespread acclaim.
Amid a heated discussion with host George Stephanopoulos, Rubio said, “Shouldn’t we all be happy that we have a president who’s trying to stop wars and prevent them instead of start them?”
“I just don’t get it. I really don’t, other than the fact that it’s Donald J. Trump,” Rubio said. “If this was a Democrat that was doing this, everyone would be saying, ‘Well, he’s on his way to the Nobel Peace Prize.’ This is absurd.”
“We are trying to end a war,” Rubio explained. “You cannot end a war unless both sides come to the table, starting with the Russians. And that, that is the point the president has made. And we have to do whatever we can to try to bring them to the table to see if it’s even possible.”
This is not the first time that Trump has been nominated, but it will hopefully be the first time he wins it!
