CNN host Michael Smerconish said that there’s no “character” requirement to win the Nobel Peace Prize, as he advocated for President Donald Trump to win the prestigious award next year if peace holds in Israel and Gaza.
The Nobel committee announced Friday that this year’s prize went to Venezuela’s opposition leader María Corina Machado, who went on to dedicate her award to Trump. This came despite a flurry of last-minute lobbying from the president and his allies, who were calling for him to receive the award after he announced the first phase of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas earlier this week.
