Trump's "Board of Peace": Belarus, Morocco, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, Hungary, Armenia, Egypt, Kosovo, Pakistan, Paraguay, Albania, Uzbekistan, Bahrain, Qatar, Indonesia.

This is what's left of America’s global standing after one year of Trump.

BREAKING: The “Board of Peace” has officially been ratified.

In a bold new strategy to win the Nobel Peace Prize, Donald Trump has assembled a “Board of Peace” comprised almost entirely of dictators, imperialists, fascists, and men with impressive body counts.

Truly inspiring stuff. Somewhere, Alfred Nobel is aggressively rolling over.

Well, there goes the legitimacy of this organization…

They can’t even claim to be a true Axis Of Evil…just wannabe’s.

that still had "Hy-Brasil" on it.



It seems to have included a land bridge between Greenland and Iceland. Plus look at the lines of latitude! Have they been distorted by a gigantic gravitational anomaly in the Bermuda Triangle or something?

Admittedly, some other versions are better done. Maybe they asked AI to have another go when people laughed.

❗️ "We’re going to bring world peace. The war in #Ukraine will end soon," — Trump says as he signs the charter for his very own "Board of Peace."

Congratulations, world: we now have an official international organization led by the man himself. Problem solved, apparently.

Of the board?

I assume eventually everyone in the room gets bored of listening to Trump as this only exists to listen to Trump rant, boast, and ask for money

17. Trump shocks with proposal to make himself 'king of the world'

This board is simply a way for trump to declare himself king of the world

The full text of a charter for President Donald Trump's proposed Board of Peace sounds suspiciously like plans to make himself "king of the world," according to a political theorist.

The full text of a charter for President Donald Trump's proposed Board of Peace sounds suspiciously like plans to make himself "king of the world," according to a political theorist.

A charter was sent out with invitations to dozens of world leaders, asking them to join the U.S. president on a panel to oversee the postwar management of Gaza, but the full text, obtained by The Times of Israel, conspicuously does not mention Gaza.

"So, the 'Board of Peace' [sic] not only doesn't mention Gaza in particular; it proposes to make Donald Trump in particular (not the president of the United States) king of the world," said Jacob T. Levy, a political theory professor at McGill University.

Levy dug into the full text of the charter and analyzed its rules, which he believes sketch out a plan to make the 79-year-old former reality TV star the ruler of the global conglomerate and then pass that title down to one of his heirs.

"Membership is subject to a 3-year term limit unless the member state either pays a billion-dollar bribe or the Chairman — entirely unilaterally — decides to extend it," Levy wrote. "The Chairman may choose to *terminate* a member state's membership (even if it has paid!), which requires a 2/3 vote to override."

Decisions shall be made by a majority of the member states that are present and voting, but subject to the approval of the chairman, and Levy dismissed that arrangement as absurd......

Levy argued that the arrangement was brazenly corrupt even by Trump's standards.

"Proposing this structure... is impeachable. It really is," he wrote. "Regardless of whether this organization ever even looks in the direction of Gaza, it's an assault on the international order subordinating the decisions of states to the personal jurisdiction of the Trump family."
