Since March 1901,[6] it has been awarded annually (with some exceptions) to people who have "done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses."[7]


"Work for fraternity among nations" ??
This is the man who's busy picking fights with Canada and Denmark.

Pakistan has said it will recommend Donald Trump for the Nobel peace prize for his work in helping to resolve the recent conflict between India and Pakistan.

The move, announced on Saturday, came as the US president mulls joining Israel in striking Iran’s nuclear facilities"....

He almost certainly asked Pakistan to do this for him.
