Steve Bannon has apparently said that Le Pen winning in France is the third step to destroying the EU - step 1 being Brexit and step 2 being Trump's current Nationalist-Populist policies.

Coincidentally (?), the Trump administration seems to be talking about sanctioning French judges if they rule against Le Pen at her upcoming trial.

France may have to go tit for tat on that. If it comes to pass

Damn, Bardella must be pissed off at this piece of news.

I don't think she was a worthy person to receive it. It felt like giving it to Trump and those of his mindset in vibe if not in name.

Nobel committee has had to release a statement that prizes cannot be transferred. Modern world is really weird. Wonder if this is how people felt when the heard their emperor was making horses senators or something.

It would serve them right for giving it to her in the first place. 

Why do you think that?

Henry Kissinger too IIRC, it is not the most highly rated Nobel prize 

Maybe, given his vast intelligence, Trump should focus on theoretical physics and gain that much more highly rated and biglier prize?

If he gets a Peace Nobel he will have the same amount of Peace Nobels as Obama. He will immediately want a second one.

Its not really a dilemma is it? The orange fuckwit doesn't even deserve consideration.

I wonder if a way out of the Nobel Peace Prize for Trump dilemma is for committee to create a Nobel Participation Prize, to recognize participation in the world affairs.
