Donald Trump And Pope Francis Nominated For 2017 Nobel Peace Prize

A near-record 318 people and organizations are in the running for this year’s Nobel Peace Prize, the Nobel Institute said on Thursday, a motley crew believed to include Syria’s White Helmets, Donald Trump and Pope Francis.



The list is also believed to include the White Helmets, jailed Saudi blogger Raif Badawi, and Edward Snowden, who revealed the scope of America’s NSA electronic surveillance program.


US President Donald Trump was nominated by an unidentified American who wants the US leader recognized for “his peace through strength ideology”. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which is highly critical of some of Trump’s first acts as president, is also believed to have been nominated.
