Chapter 1: Why has Trump not won a Nobel Peace Prize despite multiple nominations?
Today we're going to solve the riddle why Trump is not winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Or maybe he will. Who knows? Because when you think about all these people that have won, you know four presidents have won the Nobel Peace Prize? The great Jimmy Carter. Legendary. Not sure what he won it for. He won it many years after he was president, by the way. They felt bad for him. Nice guy.
Bad president, but nice guy. Obama. won after nine months of being president. People still don't have a clue how he won. Nobel Peace Prize for what? ISIS got stronger. It was chaotic all over the world, but he won. Then you have Teddy Roosevelt. And then you have Woodrow Wilson that won. Five presidents that have been nominated. I'll give you the list. But how come Trump's not on that list?
And what's the big deal about this Alfred Nobel guy? Isn't this the guy that invented dynamite? Isn't this the same guy that back in the days a French journalist wrote an article in the paper because the day Alfred Nobel's brother died, Ludwig, they thought he died. So they said, the merchant of death has officially died. And he reads this article saying, wait a minute.
That's how they remember me? I'm known as a merchant of death for inventing dynamite. So many people died because of this man here. He decided to change his life, change his ways, committed himself to charity. By the time he died, I think in 1900, 1901, Nobel Prize started a few years later. And from then, they started giving recognition for five categories.
We're going to talk about all that stuff here today.

Let's get right into it. Five categories. Ready? Physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature, and peace is the one they're looking at with Trump. Now, it's been said, if you want to not win the Nobel Peace Prize, be a Republican because it's left-leaning. A lot of people that win, they're typically on the left, even though some may say Teddy Roosevelt was a Republican.
Three out of four presidents that were nominated who won were all on the left. And two of them didn't really do much. They just kind of gave it to him, Carter and Obama, for winning it. And some even argue with Woodrow Wilson. Now, here's a few things, the controversy they have with Nobel Peace Prize. Political bias, number one. Premature awards, what happened with Obama.
Expensive definition of peace, what does it really mean? And when we look at the list of other people that have won over the years, you see Wilson, you see George C. Marshall, Martin Luther King in 64, Henry Kissinger, Mother Teresa, Mikhail Gorbachev when he brought down the wall, Nelson Mandela, Al Gore, and a few others.
Of the presidents that were nominated in the states, FDR, Hoover, Nixon was nominated for Nobel Peace Prize, Reagan nominated, and Donald Trump was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Now, the interesting thing is the president's been nominated at least seven times that we know about. One was in 2018 by Norwegian MP Christian Tybrink-Jeddy for his role in the thaw with North Korea.
2020, nominated again by Tybrink-Jeddy for brokering the Abraham Accords between Israel and the UAE. 2021, he was nominated by a group of Australian parliamentarians, citing his caution in military matters. Recently, he was nominated by Bibi Netanyahu, highlighting the Abram Accords and other peace efforts.
Then the Cambodian Prime Minister, Han Manet, for brokering a ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand. Then U.S. Representative Buddy Carter for a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, though a Ukrainian lawmaker withdrew his nomination on the same day. Pakistan for the de-escalation in the Pakistan-India conflict. This sparked significant backlash and protests in Pakistan.
And last but not least, Israeli-born Professor Anat Alon-Beck nominating him for 2025, citing his diplomacy and hostage release efforts. And of course, you got at the Armenia-Azerbaijan when you saw them shaking hands and then the signing. You would have never seen Aliyev and Pashinyan getting there, talking to each other, but he brokered that deal. It's a beautiful scene.
