Summary: For some reason, an anonymous U.S. nominator nominated Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize for "his vigorous peace through strength ideology, used as a threat weapon of deterrence against radical Islam, ISIS, nuclear Iran and Communist China." Trump, during his presidential campaign alone, has expressed his plan to ban Muslims from entering the U.S., and said he wants to cut off the heads of all ISIS members. No one knows who nominated Trump because names of the nominators and details about nominations aren't revealed until 50 years later. In October, the winner of the 2016 Nobel Peace Prize will be announced.
Analysis: I'm pretty grossed out by this. Trump is a racist, misogynist, and classist, but he definitely deserves an award for generally keeping the peace, right? This situation reminds me of how Joseph Pulitzer has the Pulitzer Prize named after him, an American award given for literature, music, or journalism, even though he was a Yelllow Journalist (A journalist who fabricated events during the Spanish-American War to create more support for the U.S).
