  Speaker 1: I know you've been waiting for this. You have been
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: waiting so patiently. In just a few hours, we will
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: finally know who's won the Nobel Peace Prize, the world's
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: most prestigious award.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Everyone says that I should get the Nobel Peace Prize
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: for each one of these achievements. They should give me
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: the Nobel Prize for Rwanda. If I were named Obama,
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: I would have had the Nobel Prize give him two
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: in ten seconds.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so he really, really really really wants it bad.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: It's been going since nineteen oh one. A bunch of
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Norwegians basically sit around a table and sort through their candidates.
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: This year, there's three hundred and thirty entries. Four US
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: presidents previously won it. Obama, as Trump mentioned, Roosevelt Woodrow
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: Wilson won at nineteen nineteen. Jimmy Carter got it two
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: decades after he left office. But one man wants it
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: more than anyone else, and even in the last few hours,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Benjamin Nettinya, who has tweeted that Trump should take it.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: They won't give me a Nobel Peace bas because they
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: only give it to liberals. When you get the Nobel Prize.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Absolutely man he got the Nobel Prize for doing nothing.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: He's forgetting elected, but I got elected.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Two to the criteria, the prize goes to whoever has
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: done the most for fraternity between nations, whoever gets rid
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: of or reduces the size of armies, and whoever basically
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: promotes peace the most. Basically, who's really good at doing peace.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: It's up five nations from going to war, and somebody
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: else will get the Nobel Peace Price for their writing
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: about Donald Trump. Be big insult to our country. I
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: will tell you that they don't want it. I want
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: the country to get it.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Here's the bad news. Trump's not going to win this
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: three reasons. One they met and decided on Monday. That
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: was before this Gaza deal was announced. Two, it actually
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: isn't even for this yet. It relates basically to twenty
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: twenty four or prior. Trump wasn't even an office at
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: that point. The applications for this closed only a month
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: into his second term. And three he's pulled out of
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: the Paris Accord. He's pulled out of the World Health Organization,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: and they don't really like that. You know, they're not
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: really into that. So I may be proven wrong in
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: a couple of hours time. But my money is on
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: Trump not winning this thing. And if it doesn't happen,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: if he doesn't get his worsh if he doesn't get
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: his way, lookout because he'll probably declare war on for
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Old Norway. For more from Early Edition with Ryan Bridge,
