I mean, come on. Obama got one and he wasn't even in office yet. It was more like a bribe. https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2018/04/a_nobel_peace_prize_for_donald_trump.html

full, How does Trump deserve a Nobel Peace Prize. Fortunately for us, the South Koreans seem to have made progress towards a peace in spite of Trump's labor rattling.

Christians beware of this man.
"If the Jews in Russia got rid of the Czar, good for them"
Saltwind; you truly are an atheist Zionist !
Anti-Christian of the highest order. Good for others to find that out.
Over 60 Million (some say 100 Million) people starved and slaughtered by Stalin, Lenin and other comrades.

"Putin the former KGB thug" - saltwind
True
Putin also brought back the Orthodox Russian Christian church in Russia, after the murderous Bolsheviks slaughtered Christians and forced the church underground.
American Zionists, and a whole lot of money, are busy trying to kick God out of schools, and the public Square.

It's "The Art of the Deal" dude.

An interesting take on Trump from someone who wasn't on board with him.....until now!

This will make sense to every American who loves their country and will make absolutely zero sense to those who despise our country.

Charles is back, (partially), after many months of battling post surgery complications and enduring lengthy rehabilitation. Please read his message about Trump, about whom he has not been kind at times with his observations. This article is interesting for all who may want to see what Dr K has analyzed during his lengthy absence…

“This is from Charles Krauthammer who did not go for Trump, read what he thinks of him now!

Charles Krauthammer's interesting take on Mr. Trump:

To my friends "of a different persuasion" I'm not trying to sell anything or anyone but I do feel this is an interesting take on our very controversial president who I truly believe is not Republican or Democrat.

A TAKE ON DONALD TRUMP ...

A different take on Donald Trump: (a non-political agenda)

Trump Is Not A Liberal or Conservative, He's a
"Pragmatist." (Definition: A pragmatist is someone who is practical and focused on reaching a goal. A pragmatist usually has a straightforward, matter-of-fact approach and doesn't let emotion distract him or her.)

"We recently enjoyed a belated holiday dinner with friends at the home of other friends. The dinner conversation varied from discussions about antique glass and china to theology and politics.

At one point, reference was made to Donald Trump being a conservative, to which I responded that Trump is not a conservative.

I said that I neither view nor do I believe Trump views himself as a conservative. I stated it was my opinion that Trump is a pragmatist. He sees a problem and understands it must be fixed. He doesn't see the problem as liberal or conservative, he sees it only as a problem. That is a quality that should be admired and applauded, not condemned. But I get ahead of myself.

Viewing problems from a Liberal perspective has resulted in the creation of more problems, more entitlement programs, more victims, more government, more political correctness, and more attacks on the working class in all economic strata.

Viewing things according to the so-called Republican conservative perspective has brought continued spending and globalism to the detriment of American interests and well being, denial of what the real problems are, weak, ineffective, milquetoast, leadership that amounts to Barney Fife Deputy Sheriff, appeasement oriented and afraid of its own shadow. In brief, it has brought liberal ideology with a pachyderm as a mascot juxtaposed to the ass of the Democrat Party.

Immigration isn't a Republican problem, it isn't a Liberal problem, it is a problem that threatens the very fabric and infrastructure of America. It demands a pragmatic approach not an approach that is intended to appease one group or another.

The impending collapse of the economy wasn't a Liberal or Conservative problem, it is an American problem. That said, until it is viewed as a problem that demands a common sense approach to resolution, it will never be fixed because the Democrats and Republicans know only one way to fix things and the longevity of their impracticality has proven to have no lasting effect.

Successful businessmen like Donald Trump find ways to make things work, they do not promise to accommodate.

Trump uniquely understands that China's manipulation of currency is not a Republican problem or a Democrat problem. It is a problem that threatens our financial stability and he understands the proper balance needed to fix it.

Here again, successful businessmen, like Trump, who have weathered the changing tides of economic reality understand what is necessary to make business work, and they, unlike both sides of the political aisle, know that if something doesn't work, you don't continue trying to make it work hoping that at some point it will.

As a pragmatist, Donald Trump hasn't made wild pie-in-the-sky promises of a cell phone in every pocket, free college tuition, and a $15 hour minimum wage for working the drive-through at Carl's Hamburgers.

I argue that America needs pragmatists because pragmatists see a problem and find ways to fix them. They do not see a problem and compound it by creating more problems.

You may not like Donald Trump, but I suspect that the reason some people do not like him is because:

(1) he is antithetical to the "good old boy" method of brokering backroom deals that fatten the coffers of politicians;

(2) they are unaccustomed to hearing a president speak who is unencumbered by the financial shackles of those who he owes vis-a-vis donations;

(3) he is someone who is free of idiomatic political ideology;

(4) he says what he is thinking, is unapologetic for his outspoken thoughts, speaks very straightforward using everyday language that can be understood by all (and is offensive to some who dislike him anyway) making him a great communicator, for the most part, does what he says he will do and;

(5) he is someone who understands that it takes more than hollow promises and political correctness to make America great again.

Listening to Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders talk about fixing America is like listening to two lunatics trying to "out crazy" one another. Jeb Bush, John Kasich and Marco Rubio are owned lock, stock, and barrel by the bankers, corporations, and big dollar donors funding their campaigns. Bush can deny it, but common sense tells anyone willing to face facts is that people don't give tens of millions without expecting something in return.

We have had Democrats and Republican ideologues and what has it brought us?
Are we better off today or worse off? Has it happened overnight or has it been a steady decline brought on by both parties?

I submit that a pragmatist is just what America needs right now. People are quick to confuse and despise confidence as arrogance, but that is common among those who have never accomplished anything in their lives (or politicians who never really solved a problem, because it's better to still have an "issue(s) to be solved," so re-elect me to solve it, (which never happens) and those who have always played it safe (again, all politicians) not willing to risk failure, to try and achieve success).

Donald Trump put his total financial empire at risk in running for president and certainly did not need or possibly even want the job; that says it all.
He wants success for the U.S. and her citizens because he loves his country.

God Bless America

Excellent article. Always watched Krauthammer, and at the same time was a little miffed that he wasn't behind Trump. An excellent take on Trump and I think it fits. Krauthammer is a very smart man (didn't know about his accident or the tact that he had a stroke). Watched a great documentary on Charles and there some anecdote in there about Hannity not knowing that Charles was in a wheel chair for years because he was always behind a desk.

Please do not be in a rush to give out a Noble Peace Prize. This valuable prize should only be given when real peace is the result of their efforts. Just trying and hoping for peace does not rate the prize, only real results.
This is a good beginning, only time will tell if the end result will be PEACE.
If the two Korea's begin to work together, to improve the lives of the people and the economy of North Korea, their nuclear program and threats should STOP, and peace will come. North Korea must be sincere in its desire to change, and be a partner in peace, and no longer threaten others. If this happens, and peace is the result, that be be the time to nominate President Trump for a peace prize. Anyone that can bring real and LASTING peace to North and South Korea will truly deserve the Nobel Peace Prize.
When peace comes, the time will be right to give the President this valuable peace prize for really bringing peace to a dangerous part of the world.

If you use the same ruler to judge this years Nobel Peace Prize that they used for Obama then Trump should already have won.

bro3ther

and what did Obama get his peace prize for

bahmer

Being a black president I think.

Invading Libya, and sending ISIS funded and armed to the hilt to Syria?

Who cares if he gets one or not? The NPP has become an award that is superfluous. After Obama received the award in 2009, it was clear that the award had no real meaning. Obama had not done one thing toward significant peace in ANY area. https://www.google.com.pg/search?source=hp&ei=1q3nWqCnNcmfjwSWqLyoAw&q=obama+receives+nobel+peace+prize+for+doing+nothing&oq=obama+receives+nobel+peace+prize+for+doing+nothing&gs_l=psy-ab.12...1097.16726.0.19522.54.50.2.0.0.0.442.5855.1j30j5j0j1.37.0..2..0...1.1.64.psy-ab..15.37.5396...0j0i131k1j0i22i30k1j0i22i10i30k1j0i13k1j33i160k1j33i21k1j33i22i29i30k1.0.7yrIpPlAzy0 In fact, many admitted that maybe it would get him inspired to do something of great magnitude. If you have something that I might have missed, please enlighten me. After that, the NPP became nothing but a joke. If you think the "apology tour" was a big step forward in the peace process ...or anything else, please divulge. They could have handed the Dem participation trophy to anyone not embarrassed to accept it and it would have meant more. The Nobel Peace Prize used to be a coveted award that meant something but not anymore. That ceased to exist in 2009. No doubt President Trump has made more significant progress considering Kim was threatening to fire an ICBM and now they are ready to sit down and talk. That's progress whether you want to admit it or not. To receive any award, especially something that really means something not the NPP, too early, but definitely getting there. Trump has accomplished so much, and "you stick in the muds" don't have the balls to admit it. The list is long. You can hate the guy's personality or persona, you can hate the hat and shoes Melania wears, but the guy overall has done an outstanding job. No balls. BTW, what did you think of the ridiculously funny performance on Saturday night at the WHCD. Pretty classy act wouldn't you say? I hope we use it in some of our ads come November to remind the American people just how classy you guys really are. I would be ashamed to admit I was a Democrat right about now.
