House Speaker Johnson Claims Trump Deserves Nobel Peace Prize for DC Police Takeover

President Trump has been nominated and advocated for the Nobel Peace Prize by various supporters, including House Speaker Mike Johnson and international leaders such as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Johnson highlighted Trump's federal takeover of Washington, D.C.'s police force, citing an 11-day period with zero murders as a key reason for the nomination. Trump himself has actively pursued the prize, even calling Norway's finance minister to discuss his nomination and tariffs. The White House credits Trump with brokering peace agreements between multiple countries, including Azerbaijan and Armenia, Israel and Iran, and India and Pakistan. Despite this, Trump has expressed skepticism about winning the award, stating that public recognition matters more to him than the prize itself. The Nobel Committee is expected to announce laureates in October, with Trump’s bid stirring debate among political and international observers.
