Letter to the editor: Trump doesn't deserve Nobel Peace Prize

It is preposterous that President Trump is being hailed as a peace-maker worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize. The current Israel/Hamas ceasefire is essentially the same as the ceasefire already in place when he took office Jan. 20, 2025. On March 18, 2025, Trump did not object when Israel reinvaded Gaza, killing hundreds of journalists, aid workers and thousands of civilians with impunity.

Trump doubled down on Netanyahu’s genocide by significantly increasing Israel’s weapons supply used to kill Palestinians and he outrageously encouraged war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu to “finish the job” and suggested that all the Palestinians should be removed from their Gaza homeland so the valuable Mediterranean seaside property could become the “Riviera of the Middle East.”

Domestically Trump continuously violates the First Amendment by calling any anti-Israel or pro-Palestinian protesters as antisemitic terrorist hate criminals and that all such speech must be prohibited, especially on any university campus.

Donald J. Trump, friend of despicable minor sexual predator Jeffery Epstein, is, in my opinion, a notorious narcissist, shilling con man and pathological liar who makes me embarrassed to ever been a registered Republican.
