Nobel Peace Prize For Trump?
Ahead of Trump's meeting with Zelenskyy earlier this week, for which Zelenskyy brought major back up in the form of seven European leaders, Hilary Clinton appeared on the Raging Moderates podcast with Jessica Tarlov. Among other things, she spoke about the high priority of ending the war between Ukraine and Russia.
"Honestly, if he could bring about the end to this terrible war, where Putin is the aggressor, invading a neighbor country, trying to change the borders — if he could end it without putting Ukraine in a position where it had to concede its territory to the aggressor," Hilary said. "If we could pull that off, if President Trump were the architect of that, I’d nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize."
"I'm dreaming that for whatever combination of reasons, including the elusive Nobel Peace Prize, President Trump may actually stand up to Putin on behalf of not just Ukraine and its democracy and its very brave people, but frankly, on behalf of our own security and interests," Clinton added.
Social Media Reactions
Clips of the podcast were splashed across social media, and users across Instagram, X, and TikTok had a field day with it. "Brilliant," one person wrote on Instagram. "What true leadership looks like. Knowing your opponent. Thinking outside of the box. For the greater good of the world."
"She knows he'll never make that happen," another person wrote. "Well played, Hilary!"
"I'll double down on Ms. Clinton's offer," one comment reads. "If he achieves what she claims, I will vote for him in 2028."
"If someone told me this in 2016 I would've thought they were crazy," said another person, referencing the 2016 presidential election showdown between Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump."
"It's all words...he'll never be able to negotiate this," a final person wrote. "He'll probably stretch this out until he's out of office and then blame someone else for it."
