Trump’s failed Nobel Peace Prize pursuit: Letters

The Issue: President Trump not winning the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize and calls for his future recognition.

Thanks to esteemed President Trump, peace seems to be taking hold in the Middle East (“Kin push Nobel for president,” Oct. 7).

Where are the fanatical and frenzied voices of the left that tore up the American landscape demanding an end to the so-called genocide?

Trump should receive accolades and should’ve received the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize. I’m not surprised the Nobel Committee hid behind its January submission date as an explanation for not awarding Trump this year’s prize.

I wonder what excuse will accompany the refusal to award him the prize in 2026?

With the hopeful Israel and Hamas peace deal, I can’t think of anyone who deserved the Nobel Peace Prize more than Trump, who believes in peace through strength.

I don’t know why Trump lobbied so hard for the Nobel Peace Prize — he only set himself up for disappointment.

President Barack Obama was given the Peace Prize for no other reason than not being George W. Bush — and the Obama administration went on to launch hundreds of drone strikes around the world. Obama still touted his Peace Prize despite making a complete mockery of its supposed purpose.

Ever since that embarrassment, the Peace Prize has lacked any credibility.

The people who vote for the prize are left-wing ideologues who would rather chew on broken glass than admit the “Bad Orange Man” was right about anything.

The 2025 Nobel Peace Prize has gone to María Corina Machado for making positive contributions to democracy rather than Trump, who’s been working against democracy.

Trump has been quietly promoting his right to win a medal, but it would be the destruction of the credibility of the award, should that ever happen.

Trump should say “no, thank you” if he is ever (deservedly) offered the Peace Prize. He should say he’d rather not be in the company of Palestine Liberation Organization terrorist Yasser Arafat, UN chief Kurt Waldheim (with his Nazi past) and Obama, who got the prize for achieving nothing.

The minute the Abraham Accords were signed and Trump ended eight wars around the world, and bombed Iran’s nuclear facility, he should have received it.

By snubbing the prize, Trump would gain more stature and make the award look foolish.

The Issue: California gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter’s threat to walk out of a recent CBS interview.

Well, there’s a new defense strategy: Katie Porter’s “no more follow-up questions” tactic (“Dem’s outburst at the seams,” Oct. 9).

Can we not find a more worthy politician to run for office than Katie Porter, who is histrionic and can’t handle basic interviews, the gem of an attorney general candidate Jay Jones, whose violent comments have not required him to drop out — and let’s not forget presidential nominee Kamala Harris, who could never provide basic answers to simple questions?

Dear Lord, give the voters strength.

I feel bad for California if Porter is the Democratic candidate for governor.

Sadly, California has had to go through Gov. Gavin Newsom — now it will have to live through Porter’s term.

Why do I say that? Because California is so far left, the thought of it electing anyone but a Dem is beyond belief.
