One of the nominators said:

"Trump has broken a 39-year-old streak of American Presidents either starting a war or bringing the United States into an international armed conflict."

How low is your bar for peace medal worthy efforts? If not starting wars is an achievement there’s a bloody long line of heads of state ready to receive one. And yes I do realize the bar was set low by the previous president.

Sorry the discussion is about the commenter not agreeing with any previous policies of the president. If you don't think this quote marks an important shift in American policy I'm not sure you follow American policy.
