That’s the thought that was running through my mind.
=========
It must have been an unbearable weekend for Trump-haters.
He got an enthusiastic, lavish red carpet welcome in Saudi Arabia.
He wasn’t boorish, crude, moronic, Islamophobic … or worse.
He delivered a powerful speech to the leaders of 50 Muslim countries emphasizing:
- There’s a fundamental difference between good and evil
- Terrorists are evil and need to be eradicated from the earth.
- Iran represents ground zero in the fight against terrorism.
- Muslim-majority nations need to step-up and lead the fight.
- America will help and will be dependable, because it’s in our self-interest.
Then, he participated in the ceremonial opening of a center intended to monitor and counter-act extremist ideologies.
Seriously, how can anybody think that those are bad ideas?
So, back to the opening question: will Trump get a Nobel Peace Prize … just like Obama did 8 years ago?
Obviously, he’s got a few things working against him….
