An historical analogy to Trump demanding a Noble Peace Prize [View all]

It's September 1938 just after the Muinch Conference and Adolf Hitler says, "See; I am a man of peace; give me the award!"

Nevermind that at home his secret police are rounding up undesirables and putting them in concentration camps, he's giving the government over to corporate fascists, he can't be trusted with any agreement because he is a pathological liar, he has vengeance in mind for anyone who wronged him, he has silenced the media and tries to crush any oppostion, and he expects his people to adore him.

GIVE ME THE AWARD!
