It is amazing how many hits you get when you Ctrl+F 'Obama' on this post.
- lyu07282 1y agoIn the context of Trump trying to get one too, isn't that pretty obvious to bring up? Perhaps we could talk about Jimmy Carter's war crimes too, he got a peace nobel as well. Committing war crimes is a bit like breathing for US presidents.
- Forgeties79 1y agoIt’s only obvious because Trump is weirdly obsessed with Obama’s achievements and sometimes even seems fueled by a desire to mirror them.
- lyu07282 1y agoYeah but not sure how real it is, if Trump is serious about regime change war in Venezuela it would make sense to have their Juan Guaidó 2.0 puppet win it instead to manufacture consent for the war. So perhaps he got what he wanted anyway.

- Forgeties79 1y agoIt’s mostly conservatives IME going “Trump deserves the peace prize” while also saying “the peace prize is meaningless because Obama got one.” Depending on the context and who they are talking to they emphasize one side of that or the other.
