Campus Reform Asks Students If Trump Deserves Nobel Peace Prize and Why Obama Won His In 2009
WATCH: Campus Reform Asks Students Who Don’t Think Trump Deserves Nobel Peace Prize Why Obama Won His In 2009
On Saturday, Campus Reform uploaded a video in which Digital Media Director Cabot Phillips spoke with students at UC Santa Cruz about the possibility of President Trump being nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize.
Phillips began with a simple comparison and follow-up question:
Some of Trump’s supporters have said that President Obama won the Nobel Prize in 2009, and they think President Trump has done more, and so he deserves the award for the global peace that’s been brought about as a result of the seeming end of the conflict [in the Korean Peninsula]. Do you think there’s any validity to that claim?
The responses were...universally negative.
"Hell no, that’s a joke," one student replied. "What has he done for peace?" Another student said: "I think that’s crap."
Then Phillips asked the students if Obama deserved his Nobel Peace Prize, which is where the responses got truly funny.
PHILLIPS: Do you feel like President Obama deserved the award when he got it in 2009?
STUDENT: Yes.
PHILLIPS: What did he do to deserve it?
STUDENT: I...was it for his education – push on education, or was it for the Obamacare?
After listening to similarly ridiculous responses from other students, Phillips finally spoke with someone who asked the right question: "I think if Obama won it, why wouldn’t he [Trump] win it, right? ‘Cause I don’t know why Obama won it. I like Obama, but I don’t think there was any legitimate reason why he should have won it."
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

They really are producing an entire generation of idiots.

The university is so proud, their students have been told what their opinions should be, and they don't have any information or know why they have those opinions. Mindless idiots.
Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless.

After watching that video I once again return to my favorite word to describe this generation....Worthless. If that's the 'future' of this country, I'm very glad I'm an old person and likely won't be around to see it.

It would be interesting to see how these nimrods will function out in the real world. A Tech school grad probably would have more common sence and knowledge of the real world.

I went to UCSC for three years. Lots of commies pushing their BS on gullible back in the day, I doubt it has gotten better.
Angela Davis, after being acquitted in her part of a courtroom takeover, attempted escape and death of the judge, was then hired by UCSC to continue with her rant against everyone and everything.
Hard to believe our tax dollars go to that school. Oh wait, it is California, so not so hard to believe.
