Trump's transparent desire for the Nobel Peace Prize is not playing well

42. That was the most controversial award ever, and ultimately it was so embarrassing for the Nobel Committee

that it's unlikely they'll make a similar mistake again. It was awarded jointly to Kissinger and Lê Đức Thọ for "having negotiated a cease fire in Vietnam in 1973." Thọ declined the prize, and Kissinger later tried to return it, but the committee declined his offer. "In Norway, the Nobel Committee was subject to widespread criticism, with the Norwegian Arbeiderbladet newspaper calling the award a "bad joke" and stating, "The Norwegian Nobel Committee has disgraced itself". In a joint letter to the Norwegian Parliament, multiple Harvard professors wrote that awarding Kissinger and Thọ was "more than a person with a normal sense of justice can take". For only the second time in history, Norwegian Nobel Committee members resigned as a result of the decision." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1973_Nobel_Peace_Prize

Awarding the prize to Trump would be exponentially worse, and the current committee surely knows it.
