‘I settled 8 wars’: Trump renews Nobel Peace Prize bid ahead of Friday announcement

US President Donald Trump reiterated his bid for the Nobel Peace Prize at the White House, asserting that he had settled eight wars and accomplished feats unmatched by any other leader. Trump made the announcement on Wednesday, just before the Norwegian Nobel Committee's scheduled Friday unveiling of the prestigious award. "I've done stuff that nobody else has ever done," Trump declared to reporters.

He then claimed that no other president has ever settled wars, asserting, "I settled eight wars." Trump went on to say that it would be an "enormous dishonor" to the Nobel Committee if they did not recognize his achievements. "They have a reputation for perhaps not bestowing it upon individuals such as myself," he remarked. "Whether I receive it or not, I believe I have contributed far more.

And I consider it a great dishonor to them if they overlook this fact." Trump emphasized that settling eight wars sets him apart from all other presidents.
