Should Trump be awarded a Nobel Peace prize?

[asaratis]

Let's see, ISIS crushed, Assad and the Iranians put on notice, and now the North Korean fat thug is waving the white flag. And this is only ONE year after he was inaugurated. Just remember that the jackass empty suit Hussein Obama that the Leftards worship, didn't do shit (in fact he caused a genocide in Syria, and capitalulated to the Iranian IslamoNazis) and he was awarded a peace prize because his first act was to apologize for America to the Muslim world.

That was so weird that a sitting president would EVER think that those Arab men would have any kind of respect for another man who would present himself and his country in the manner that Obama did with his infamous "apology tour." What in the hell??? That just sets a TERRIBLE precedent. A president has to consider WHO he is dealing with and their ideology before he goes off on an apology rant, speaking for an entire nation. Lol.

We need a shithole nation tour

Tour California. It's leaders consider it separate from the USA.

Unless one is among the body of qualified nominators for the Nobel Peace Prize, it really doesn't matter what one thinks about whether Trump should receive it.

...and it really doesn't matter what you think about the topic being discussed. It's just an opinion poll.

Yes, but the merit of an opinion poll is found in its soliciting input from individuals whose opinion in some way matters.

The purpose of an opinion poll is to explore what people think about a certain topic. Often the topic is something that people cannot control...therefore, no opinion really matters.

If he denuclearizes North Korea, then yes he should get the Peace Prize

I’m afraid he Jew haters will point to the Jerusalem move

No it is not. The merit of an opinion poll is in determining the prevailing opinion of the those responding. It may or may not have anything to do with their ability to control anything about the poll topic.

I find the rush to awards to be rather unseemly - very Participation Trophy-ish.

It is more fitting to wait until a public servant completes his "tour of duty" before tossing out awards after a few months. Obabble's pre-Participation Trophy was unwarranted; let's not continue that nonsense.

Maybe if Trump sends a planeload of cash worth worth billions to Kim Dung Poop (like Hussein Obama did with the Iranian IslamoNazis) they'll give him a Nobel Peace Prize.

I rather like my Cracker Jack solution. Give them to everyone. Obama's being awarded has made it somewhat meaningless.

• Yes, that is the purpose of an opinion poll. That said, pollsters don't solicit the opinion of folks whose opinion doesn't somehow matter. The matter of one's opinion may be miniscule, as in the case, say, of the individuals who respond to election polls or marketing polls. The point of a poll is to obtain an understanding of the mindset of the individuals who have a say in the matter about which they are queried. To wit:
  • Voters have a say, but no voter controls the outcome of an election.
  • Customers have a say in a broad-spectrum merchant's operations and product offerings, but no single customer controls either of those things.
• A poll that solicits input about what decision should be made and that obtains that input from people who have no say the decision is a pointless poll because it asks for input from the wrong people.
• There are, of course, poll that, for curiosity's sake, ask for opinions from people who have no role in a given decision, however, such polls don't ask respondents for input on a specific decision, but rather ask them about how they'd view a given decision that others made or might make.
  • "If Trump were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for getting N. Korea to denuclearize, would you concur that he deserved the award?" -- That question asks for one's opinion about a decision that others have made (might make). There may be any number of legitimate reasons why one might want to know what folks think in that regard. Obviously, the range of folks who may be solicited is quite expansive -- everyone and anyone.
  • "Should Trump be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to denuclearize N. Korea? -- That question asks for one's decision on a specific action, that of awarding the Nobel Peace Prize. If one doesn't get to vote on the award, one's opinion on that is of no matter at all. The population of folks whom a pollster might canvas for this question is very narrow; it simply is not everyone and anyone.

if he doesn't blow up the world... maybe. *shrug*

but if he doesn't, it's purely accidental since the man is a moron.

and I'm not really sure that putin's tool is deserving of a peace prize. just saying, hon.

Lets see. ISIS was on it's way to being crushed before the failed grifter came on the scene. He gets absolutely zero credit for that.

Assad and the Iranians are acting more aggressively than they ever have been. You're not real bright are you?

North Korea successfully tested a hydrogen thermonuclear device for the first time, and five separate long range ballistic missile tests, four of which flew right over Japan, and one of which landed in the Pacific near California. Kim is playing the Dotard like a fiddle.

And you want to give him a prize because of why again?

Actually, when Trump took over, ISIS, which was Obama's creation was chopping heads off and killing people all over Europe and the US. You didn't mention that Obama drew a red line with invisible ink which gave Assad the green light to kill over 400,000 of his own people, the Iranian IslamoNazis that received 150 billion in cash as ransom for signing a nuclear deal that the West could NOT inspect all sites without notice, Obama attacked and removed Ghaddaffi, a Libyan dictator who had given up his nuclear ambitions and was removed off the terrorist list, only to turn Libya into an Islamist shithole that ended up assassinating our Ambassador while Hillary and Obama thumbed their noses and treasonously LIED to the American public.

And oh...let's not forget the Obama advertised and promoted "Arab Spring" where our allies such as Egypt and their leaderships were forced out by Hussein Obama so that Islamist pigs like Morsi could take over. Meanwhile, Hillary and Obama colluded with the Russians, gave them a reset button, sold them our Uranium in exchange for a 150 million donation to the Clinton Foundation, Obama whispered sweet nothings in the Russian Ambassador's ear, while Russia invaded and annexed Crimea and threatened Ukraine.

That's the REAL legacy of the piece of shit you referred to. And you guys wonder why Hillary got her ass kicked in 2016?

 

[Circe]

Unlike Barry Soetoro who got one because of... wait, what did he get it for?

He got the Nobel Peace Prize for being black and going around the world apologizing for America.

Right --- THOSE RESPONDING. "Opinion polls" that use samples to draw a conclusion about a whole popularion were proven in 2016 to be totally bogus, lies, and propaganda. And anyone who mentions a sampling poll again --- I stop reading that nonsense.

The poll here is a good poll because it only refers to the people who actually responded.

Oh, and because it shows Trump's huge popularity, of course...........................

You belabor the point for what reason, to prove that both of our opinions have merit though neither will affect the other?

The purpose of an opinion poll is to get opinions. That is all. What is done with the results may or may not affect the subject of the poll. A poll concerning your favorite season of the year will not change a damn thing about the seasons of the year. A poll concerning your favorite candidate for Nobel Peace Prize will not determine who gets it. Both are still valid poll topics.

The matter of one's opinion may be miniscule, as in the case, say, of the individuals who respond to election polls or marketing polls.

Right, the whole point of most polls on the Internet is to get us to click through to more and more pages so the site owner can sell more ads. The last thing anyone cares about is our opinion about anything. They want the advertisers' money and the advertisers want our money.

Polling today is a national disgrace.

Except here, of course, where it's a lot of fun and interesting.

Your closing statement (and I do hope it is truly a closing statement) resembles those often coming from other puerile posters that incorrectly think that a catchy little parting shot wins a debate.

Trump should get a Nobel Peace prize, but he won't because of politics. He's actually done something, where Obama did nothing.
