North Korea has changed course. Only because we have have the most strong POTUS, ever.. waste of time for the leftis to argu.. Facts are difficult to hide

Geez Trumps Ego needs a boost so their trying to influence Japan to nominate Trump for a Nobel Peace Prize* What a Disgrace to Ask for something so prestigious when you don't deserve it.

What a surprise

His arm was twisted!

日本の恥、いや、世界の恥。 よく懐いたアメリカの犬だ。

He is one of the worst prime ministers in history of Japan.

Can WE (the citizens of the United States) admit WE have a President who is not mentally able to execute the delicate job of running this country. WE also need to take inventory of OUR collective mental state. WE all new he could not do the job.but WE elected him anyway. THINK!

Good. He deserves it. 👏👏👏👏

That’s so embarrassing.

In a week this will be proven yet another fake Story. The mindless masses believe any lie the left wing media reports. When are we as a people going to wake up and change the channel. JesseSmollett RussiaHoax FakeNews

Boycott Japan buy China dump trump

UNBELIEVABLE to for ask someone else to nominate you for “Noble Peace Prize “ crudest thing I’ve ever seen. YOU DO NOT DESERVE ANYTHING.... PERIOD. !!!!!!

Guess Toyotas won't be hit with tariffs

Thats like nominating Brett Kavanaugh for to sit on the supreme court.

Davidlaz Having Russia do it would've been gauche

Well, since the prize is based on merit, Trump will NEVER get one!! The folks in Sweden know his history!!

So very sad...

Oh gezzz you got to be kidding with all the name calling he has in his vocabulary I don't believe I'm hearing this.

Can this get any weirder. You push someone to nominate you for an award no one wants to give you.

High school behavior.

That's great news.

Hitler and Stalin were both nominated for this prize. trump joins this infamous list.

This is beyond embarrassing! Absolutely disgusting!

Must Watch Are we going to war.King Trump VS The USA government System.

Mr T. Has the biggest shoulders of an man I have ever followed. You keep fighting for us. Protect the good people in Syria. When Syria launched their tear gas at great people. You Mr T. Said we will protect. Oboma just used words. No more gas. This is a leader for all.

Wow Mr T U deserve this . It’s us voters that can make a difference. Your amazing Mr T. So many of us Americans can see. America is finally going down the right path. Fight all the way. We can now only hope. Democrats care as much as American citizens do.

That’s nuts!

I don’t think that’s the way it works At the request of the White House How could Japan even suggest it?

Time to find those ribbons of shame.

Millionaires and Billionaires are robbers. They steal your joy, they steal your happiness, they steal your fellowship with God. All they leave behind is emptiness, depression, hopelessness, and despair. No individual should be allowed to hoard more than $30 Million in wealth.

I second the motion. 🇺🇸

Disgusting! This is nothing but an act commited by a true egomaniac. May God have mercy on America!

Hey NBC people know you hate Trump, therefore your reporting has little effect on us. Who knows what the real truth is?

WTF did that Clown promise Japan?

Good lord

USA you're amazing us. What do you want. Hahahahahahaha

royalmusing Nobel committee should never accept a nomination from Japan...ever!

Rod_Rosenstein The White House requested to give him the Nobel prize that is a disgrace noble prize are earned not fraudulently obtained”

He doesn't deserve the prize in the Cracker Jack's box.

Sad

😂😂😂😂😂😂🤢🤢🤢🤢

How pathetic

nybct この写真トランプにお手をしてるペットみたい・・・安倍晋三大丈夫か!?

Hi there NobelPrize, I speak for the majority of the population of the USA and the rest of the world: please don’t award the nominee; DonaldJ. Trump (the 45th president of the USA), the Nobel Prize. Please.

Davidlaz For the love of all decency, DO NOT GIVE THIS MAN A NOBEL PEACE PRIZE!

DISGRACE

Puppets on a string......

Well, now that’s embarrassing.

The Nobel prize is turning into one of those things lawyers have their friends rate them in so they get on a list “ top 100 personal injury lawyers under 40 in (blank) county”

Trump can't handle the fact that President Obama received the award and he has no chance of getting it. Trump's ego is and will get the best of him. If he doesn't get his way, no telling what he will do. Imagine a black man besting Trump. Wow.

If he wasn’t such a despicable person and terrible president, this would be sad. But he is, so Ill just say ResignTrump

That is a lie & one that FakeNews has generated! Who nominated BarackObama for a nobel prize, when he hadn't even done anything yet? You didn't research that fiasco! Also, what he did during his presidency was horrendous to our country! You didn't report that either! CNN ABC

WTF Japan! Really? Begging for nominations that’s classy!

Of course it's at the request of the White House!

realDonaldTrump Care to comment?

Huh, I figured trump himself did it pretending to be Japan.

😂🤣

Such a pathetic administration and president to actually as Japan to submit DonaldTrump for the Nobel peace prize. Lol, all he does is eat fast food, watch tv and play golf and divide people for two years. Yet, he believes he should receive the Noble peace prize...Lol disillusion

So is that why Trumps going to meet with Kim again so he can fake again that he's accomplished peace with him? And get a Nobel peace prize! God forbid don't give it to him

Okay what was the Japanese prime minister threatened or did he get a deal he couldn’t refuse this administration works like this

gawd....

Trump asking for a Noble pease Prize is so outrageous I can’t stop laughing

How does this work? Is it like the 'Make-A-Wish' Foundation? Please send me more details.

How embarrassing. NobelPrize please throw out the nomination of Donald Trump for this amazing and wonderful prize. You will insult all previous awardees if you even consider this mentally unstable liar who has done absolutely NOTHING to deserve it. - The Majority of American’s

I think he begged to be nominated for an Emmy too! Pathetic!

I believe the white house and the prime minister meant, 'No bell piece price'

Peace ✌️Really ..lol lol 😆

Let the liberal butthurt begin!! Ooops sorry, it began in November 2016.

Seriously? That conceded you ask another leader to nominate our pathetic “leader” for a Nobel Peace Prize he doesn’t deserve? He is ripping our country apart! 🙄🤬🙄🤬

whatajoke

My sources tell me that Shinzō Abe made the decision with other members of government & industry to nominate POTUS bases on N & S Korea & other major accomplishments. They also say the 'SOURCE' are shills paid to attack our President.

Somebody’s been drinking too much Sake

What a disgrace, what kind of deal did they make for that insane thought?

LaurieSpoon Happy Presidents Day. Wait a minute, just remembered who is in the WH. Never mind.

What a disgrace.

At the request of the White House Now that’s some bull 💩 fakenews misleading. Whhhhhhhhy!!!!

Sad

Once again, the FAKE NEWS left-wing pro-crooked Hillary media has “reported” yet another LIE. Sad. ... Wait, this is actually TRUE?!

Member ? I member.. Isaid it that same day. It doesn't work like that. If your old lady had to tell you maybe next time.. You didn't ring her bell lol. Sorry trump, you got to be quicker than that. Lol.

What?

Japan's prime minister if he thinks that Trump deserves a Nobel peace prize he is a bigger jackass as Trump amen

Pathetic

Was Abe at that pee party with him?

If the grabber gets the Peace prize , that ends the meaning of that symbal .

Take note world!

I have alway wanted an Oscar, who do I call?

Trump is a disgrace and incompetence President.Stop began Trump for a Noble peace Prize you will never get one.

Who cares !!!! He can have all the awards Japan want to bestow on him it dosn’t matter because he didn’t earn them

After he was asked to. And after saying ...No comment. Are they afraid donnie and his friend Kim will shoot rockets into japan?

It'll be interesting to see what the Nobel committee does with this.

ITS A TRUE SIGN OF THE TIMES WHEN AMERICA HAS TO ASK OR BEG ANOTHER COUNTRY TO NOMINATE TRUMP FOR A NOBEL PEACE PRIZE BECAUSE WE AMERICANS KNOW HE DOESN'T DESERVE IT!!CRY ON BIG TRUMP BABY!AMENDMENT25UNFIT TO LEAD IMPEACH TRUMP

That would make this award irrelevant.

Trump is wanting that Nobel prize for his trophy case . It will look good next to his Purple Heart

Only one word for Japan’s President. ... SNOWED

Shame on Japan.

What a joke. He is the complete antithesis of peace

If he needs to ask someone to nominate him shows he is undeserving.

WhiteHouse realDonaldTrump How stupid does this administration think we are?

Who does that!! I tell you who didn’t do it, BarackObama. He got the White House and the Nobel Prize legitimately!! Truth!!

Still did more than Obama and Obama got one for being alive,

Ireland0828

One of those sitdowns with no one present and no notes taken i bet.

What a group of “simps” in the White House. If occupant in WH won, they would be standing there smiling while knowing it was all a lie. Thank you, Noble Peace Prize Com. for NOT choosing “HEAD SIMP”.

Hahahahahaha AT THE REQUEST OF THE WHITE HOUSE

What if one may asked at what request of?

So can you finally tell American about that so call award Trump got back in 90 from AACP he was standing next to Jesse Jackson and Rosa Park, he pay someone get that award too. Trump never hired any African American. Explain Hollywood walk of fame that he also pay for.

Glad other heads of state think 45 is deserving of the Nobel Peace prize. Someone should remind the nominee that his sowing of peace should begin at home - within the borders of the USA! POTUS POTUS44

Don't you need to actually do something to even be nominated, let alone win?

Is that the norm? Nomination for the Nobel peace prize requested of another country by an American administration?

Just as you were skeptical. They live by NOKO and are please missiles aren’t flying!

I FIXED NOT ONE GOD DAM THING GIVE ME THE PEACE PRIZE... THIS IS TRUMP WISH NOW...JUST LIKE A KID...YOU WATCH HE WILL BRING IT UP IN EVERY SPEACH HE GIVES.

WHY?

Hahahahahahaha hahahahahahaha hahahahahahaha

Shame on Japan for selling out to Trump! The Emperor & Empress should strip Abe of his authority!!

At least he has worked for peace. Obama just has to get elected to win it. What a shame.

Pathetic... simply pathetic.

Pick me....pick me....pick me! What a childish thing to do. 🙄

For how much longer we will continue suffering this circus government 🤦🏼‍♀️

I wonder what trumps steak is in that newspaper ? Any prize or award that one has to steal is not worth having it’s shallow meaningless empty just like u realDonaldTrump

That's just SAD

and his ego MarALardAss

Real journalism is dead sickening

Omg he has no shame.

I wonder what they had to offer Abe? Are you surprised?

At the request of the Whtie House, yeah right. Fake News!

The White House requested that? Have they NOOOOO shame? Or is it that his ego is getting out of control?

More proof he's a very sick man! He'll never ever get it! I'm not buying one thing from Japan ever!

La paz de los cementerios

DID TRAITOR TRUMP GET DOWN ON HIS KNEES. AN BEG.!!

So a news paper reported to a news agency that it's not true. That has fake news written all over it. Why not Ask the Japanese Prime Minister or someone in their office if it's true? Eliminate Any possibility of it being fake.

Can his behavior get any more bizarre?

Wonder how much Trump paid for this

We should have a trumplimbo. That way we might know how low he can go.

Shameful. Begging.

Abe is a Tai Ibu!!!!!!

WOW! realDonaldTrump It's Really Pathetic That You Have To Beg For The Nobel Peace Prize! TRUMP'S So Obsessed And Jealous Of OBAMA That He Literally Has Been Unraveling All Of OBAMA'S ACCOMPLISHMENTS! TRUMP-EL-STILT-SKIN IS GROVELING AS IF HE HAS DONE SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY!🙄

Obama got one for doing nothing, soooo

At the request from the WH? Hum he must have threatened Japan with tariffs...yep I bet he did that.

I wonder what he paid him out of our pockets for this.

Actual footage when he was told nope at first.

That’s pretty low and desperate. Asking an ally to nominate you for a Nobel prize. Have you no shame? Tacky.

Dear Prime Minister Abe & Government: We find it patently ridiculous and stupid for you to nominate trump for any award other than a prison jumpsuit. This kind of groveling does no honor or credit to democratic government.

Abe must be another blackmail victim.

I highly doubt the White House requested this, but hey, FAKE NEWS has to do say somEthing to spice up their FAKE NEWS!

Sad!...Just because Obama got one. Sad!...Obama didn't have tell ask someone to nominate him. Sad!...tRump doesn't have the moral code that God gave to an ant. 😎😑😎

And another day of starts off reading about a trump disaster.

And we heard will be nominated for TREASON!!!!!

Lol how pathetic, omg really pathetic 🙄

For what, exactly?

Anyone?

Alfred Nobel is spinning in his grave right now.

The only thing trump deserves is prison!

I'd be thankful as well if a foreign leader was about to get the dprk to the peace table, regardless of whom it was

this is how the super rich kisses ass to stay super rich

In return realDonaldTrump won’t go after him when he’s done with Xi.

Pathetic. I also didn’t agree when President Obama won first thing in office 🍀

No shame

He should get the opposite of a peace prize.

If you look-up the definition of 'pathetic' you'll find a picture of the Orange man-child next to it.

A joke, I seriously thought this was a parody account when I saw this

At the request of the White House Japan is nominating trump 🤣🤣🤣

No surprise, Japan was NK’s target

hawt_red Obama got one for doing nothing so it's not weird.

If I were Japanese I would be concerned. Nothing 45 does surprises me anymore

Wtf

I swear the Nobel Peace Prize has become a sort of participation trophy.

Really pathetic when you have to ask someone to nominate you. Wonder what trump promised him for doing it.

Didn’t Obama get one for doing what again?

IS THAT ILLEGAL OR CHEATING OR RIGGED OR SOMETHING. DOES NOT SOUND RIGHT. IS HE DOING IT FOR THE MONEY

Omg this is so sick 😷

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

KAG2020!

BiG Mistake

何も考えてない。我が国の首相は。

Favors for favors...to bad Japan is to ignorant to nominate some themselves...S. Korea president has been busting his ass for peace. Imagine a united Koreas...that would make them a regional economic nuclear power player

And Obama actually won in 2009 ?!?! For Can someone help me with a reason?

Ummm, ‘just as president trump claimed’ is inaccurate, he left out a fairly salient detail.......

Haha

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 pisser 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

LaurieSpoon Salutes to Laurie & NBC News as I laugh my butt off. Trump for dog catcher or dog whistler, maybe. Peace Prize? Not in a billion years. How many Toyotas did you agree to buy, Donald?

Fake news, enemy of the American people.

realDonaldTrump how sad that you’re so desperate for a prize you dont deserve that you’ll bribe an ally to nominate you. What a small, cheesy, FAKE President.

What the fuck

Naughty nan must hand over her tax returns!

Pathetic. What- did he think it would be a secret?

At the request of the WH. Name who asked? If you can't name the person who asked... then it didn't happen that way.

He spared his hand.

Japan's kissing his as like putin so thay can get the deal thay want.. Praise this guy he'll give you anything..

It seems that Japan’s prime minister need his head examined along with Benedict Donald.

Fake news!

Stop the planet,. It's time to get off.

What a disgrace

What a farce. I can't believe people cow tow to placate his massive ego. Giving it to him diminishes the meaning and prestige of the award. It's yet another thing destroyed by Trump.

😂😂 In other sense, it is simply ' I nominate myself in the award you are giving out to deserving individuals since I know you won't nominate me' but I need the nomination to revive my relevance that is rapidly losing ground 😂😂

ВЫ МЕНЯ ВСЕ ДОСТАЛИ ОЧЕНЬ СИЛЬНО И ВЫ ВСЕ ОЧЕНЬ СИЛЬНО РИСКУЕТЕ БЫТЬ ОТПРАВЛЕННЫМИ А ОДИН КОНЕЦ...

😂😂😂 should be nominated for chief of warmongers prize

They didn't have a single person in Eastern Asia that did anything at all remotely peaceful. Hell, Kim Jong Un chose not to launch any missiles. That to more brain cells than Trump has altogether.

small1ldy1 Well that pretty much further undermines the nomination.

What a sham! Listen up Bully in Chief realDonaldTrump here’s a panel who WILL NOT bow to your strong arm tactics!

Poor Mr. Trump. He wants everything, and though he may have money and power right now; inside he is a vast, howling emptiness.

Thankfully, the Nobel committee is not that stupid...

I can’t even believe what I just read!

Hitler was once nominated for one. This doesn't surprise me.

Donald J Trump is forcing our allies to say good shit or he will terrif them

Я МОГУ ВАС ВСЕХ КИНУТЬ ТРАМП...) !? Я СПОСОБЕН НА ТАКОЕ...ВЫ-ЖЕ МЕНЯ ВСЕ КИНУЛИ И С МОИМИ ЖЕНЩИНАМИ АНГЕЛАМИ СПУСТИЛИСЬ ОСТАВИВ МЕНЯ ОДНОГО ТАМ ОДИН НА ОДИН С ОГНЕМ АДА...

And they made fun of Obama for his...the hypocrisy of this administration...

smart japan ..top tier diplomacy

All You have got to be joking.

OBAMA got one for funding ISIS! Let that sink in!

And I’m sure the 1 million winnings or money is all he really wanted.

We all know he wants one because President Obama (deservedly so) received the honor. What a flipping embarrassment he is

So sad and pathetic

He deserves it for getting rid of IS and talking face to face with Kim and bringing about s peace treaty. Given Japan the right to defend their selves too. TRUMP 2020, MAGA

Well, he deserves it.

They have no shame

Nope Nope Nope.

Yeah no backroom bullshit there, cant wait to hear how his lose is actually the greatest Nobel prize win ever, in history, of all time

Hmmmm.....sounds like Japan is about to get more than their fair share of negative press & attention. They will regret this.

Peace Prize? For what? Stirring racial tensions? Encouraging violence against journalists? Justifying the use of tear gas on children? What exactly has that bloated orange piss-enthusiast done to deserve a peace prize? Don’t tell me, getting sucked in by Kim Jong-un. What a joke.

Fake News Again

Obama much? Truth StandUpDontShutUp BeAChampion He doesn't deserve it if he is asking to be nominated... WTF

🙄

Remarkably pathetic

Is it April 1st already?

So literally nothing has changed since WWII when the Japanese worked with nazis?

Amazing what money can buy..

'Peace'? Yeah ok 🙄

😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🙄

Same forged nomination at the recommendation of the WH was used last year.

In affect, trump nominated himself. Haha

What a joke

😂😂 Is this real, ? So I can just wake up & ask them to nominate me for an Oscar award even though I didn't perform😂😂

As we learned with Obama, the Nobel Peace Prize doesn't really mean much.
