Jared Kushner Is Now A Nobel Peace Prize Nominee Here’s What That

Former White House senior adviser and President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner has been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize along with his deputy Avi Berkowitz, by a former Trump attorney, for their role in negotiating the normalization of relationships between Israel and four Arab nations as part of the “Abraham Accords.”Seemingly self-aware of the fact that the nominations may be controversial, Reuters reports Dershowitz as writing in his letter to the Nobel committee: “The Nobel Peace Prize is not for popularity. Nor is it an assessment of what the international community may think of those who helped bring about peace. It is an award for fulfilling the daunting criteria set out by Alfred Nobel in his will.”Kushner will join his father-in-law Trump on the list of nominees as the former President was nominated for the peace prize by Christian Tybring-Gjedde, a right-wing lawmaker from Norway in September last year. At the time, Tybring-Gjedde told Fox News he was nominating Trump “for his merit,” adding “I think he has done more trying to create peace between nations than most other Peace Prize nominees.” Tybring-Gjedde had previously submitted a nomination for Trump in 2018, following the former president’s summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Trump has at various points in time expressed that he believes he deserves a Nobel and in 2019, he did not congratulate Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed after he won the award, claiming that he—not Ahmed—deserved the award for brokering peace in Ethiopia. Trump’s predecessor Barack Obama won the award in 2009 just after becoming president, something that seemed to greatly irritate Trump. The former president complained in 2019: “I would get a Nobel prize for a lot of things, if they give it out fairly, which they don't,” adding that even though Obama got the prize in 2009, “he had no idea why he got it. You know what? That was the only thing I agreed with him on.”Kushner and Berkowitz, who was the Middle East envoy, played key roles in negotiating the deals between Israel and four Arab nations — United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Sudan, and Morocco. However, the Biden administration is expected to review all national security deals struck during the Trump administration, including those with the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, which has also normalized relations with Israel. Some U. S. lawmakers have derided the Morocco deal in particular, as the Trump administration recognized the country’s sovereignty over the disputed Western Sahara region in order to secure the agreement.

Nobel Peace Prize should be awarded to President Joe Biden for his continuing efforts in bringing America together again

Actually, neither him nor Fat Donnie have been nominated. All nominations come from the Nobel Prize committee. They have been SUGGESTED TO THE COMMITTEE as nominees. They are both well loved so it isn't terribly likely that they will be nominated. LOL..

So you still get a Nobel prize if impeached twice but you can't get a job if you get caught with a bit of weed because it goes on your record, sure is one thing for them and another for us.
