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.

Huh. Obama was given in advance – anticipatory. Maybe as a moral loan and it is up for debates whether it was ever repaid.

Very debatable. His deal with Iran kept the peace though - trump ripping it up led to war.

Ironically, trump may win the peace prize next year for ending a war he created. If indeed, against the odds, he has ended this war.

Trump might win it anyway. If he stares at Norway long enough and his minions find a way to harass the country (which is the MO these days), I have a feeling Norway will find a way to give him one (or two if he fancies), just like they found ways to not give it to many deserving people throughout its history, just because nations with convincing physical likeness would not have appreciated that.
