No. In fact he should investigate nobel prize process meddling that resulted in unqualified people getting one.
In other word, it is time to expose lies and revoke prize that is not deserved

If anyone but a true blue lib won then we would have to endure the endless russian nobel prize hacking stories.

Why the hell do you want the federal government investigating that?
[–] 8Hz_WAN_IP 0 points 1 point 1 point (+1|-0) ago
Well no, because the prize has nothing to do with the United States.
[–] crazy_eyes 0 points 2 points 2 points (+2|-0) ago
The prize really doesn't have anything to do with peace either

If Trump likes Nobel peace prizes then all he needs to do is airdrop James "Mad Dog" Mattis on the Norwegian Nobel Committee to collect as many as he wants.
I herd that Mattis once bombed the shit out of a Muslim wedding in Afghanistan... which resulted in the radicalization of the friends and family of the victims.
Fortunately Mattis bombed the shit out of them too!
Problem solved.
Yeeehaaaa!

Only after he starts a few more wars like Obama? Nobel peace prize is a joke now.

No. Obama should be awarded a second peace prize. Also Oppenheimer and the crew of the Enola Gay.

No. He should have nothing in common with that fucking nigger.
[–] bisteot 5 points 4 points 9 points (+9|-5) ago
I get the sarcasm.
But no president of a country with an army deserves such prize

Any soil your army is on becomes yours, checkmate peace prize.
[–] bisteot 1 point 1 point 2 points (+2|-1) ago
I like that observation.

No, if only because it is a useless award now. If it actually meant something, then yes. But it is worthless now that it can be awarded on a whim. President Obama didn't deserve the one he got for simply being elected President of the United States.
