In an unexpected turn of events, Hillary Clinton, a two-time unsuccessful presidential candidate, has expressed her willingness to nominate Donald Trump, her former political adversary, for a Nobel Peace Prize.
This surprising endorsement comes with the condition that Trump successfully brings an end to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine without surrendering any territory to Russia.
According to Gateway Pundit, Clinton's sentiments were echoed by John Brennan, former CIA Director under the Obama administration. Brennan, who was instrumental in propagating the Russia Collusion narrative that sought to undermine Trump's presidency, also stated that he would back Trump for the prestigious award if he manages to resolve the Ukrainian crisis.
Clinton, in conversation with host Jessica Tarlov, stated, Honestly, if he could bring about the end to this terrible war, if he could end it without putting Ukraine in a position where it had to concede its territory to the aggressor, could really stand up to Putin something we havent seen, but maybe this is the opportunity if President Trump were the architect of that, Id nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize. She further emphasized her position, stating, Because my goal here is to not allow capitulation to Putin.
Meanwhile, on MSNBC, Nicole Wallace, a known critic of Trump, questioned the feasibility of Trump's efforts. However, Brennan, despite his evident disdain for Trump, conceded that there might be a slim possibility of success. I think the odds are probably one out of 100 at best, Brennan admitted, adding, But I would second a nomination for a Nobel Peace Prize if in fact that happens. Brennan, however, couldn't resist reiterating the long odds, stating they were one out of 100.
In the full transcript of the conversation, Wallace questioned Trump's negotiation skills, stating, "Trump has never negotiated something this complex, and he certainly never asked Putin to give something backto give back occupied territory and negotiate a ceasefire."
Brennan responded by expressing his skepticism about Putin willingly relinquishing the territory he has gained in Ukraine. He also questioned Trump's ability to influence the situation positively, given its complexity.
Brennan expressed his hopes for Trump to remain firm in his negotiations, advocating for a comprehensive ceasefire, not just in the air, but also on the battlefield. However, he remained doubtful about Putin's willingness to withdraw from the territory he currently occupies.
Despite his skepticism, Brennan reiterated his support for a Nobel Peace Prize nomination for Trump, should he manage to bring about a peaceful resolution to the conflict, though he maintained that the chances of such an outcome were "next to zero."
