That is nonsense. Even if the Gaza deal was worthy a Nobel Peace Prize, nobody, including Trump, would expect to be honored two days after the deal.

They should really have given him one before the deal. I mean, Obama got one just for showing up.

(To be clear, I don't think Trump should get one; and Obama's win was really weird. But, hey, if Kissinger can get one..)

When you fuck up world peace so badly your successor gets the prize for doing nothing...

Obama was not doing nothing, he actively killed people by drones more than anyone before him. Nobel endorsed killer.
