Trump Has Never Won a Nobel. Here Are His Other Peace Related Honors
Trump has made no secret of his desire to win the Nobel Peace Prize. But as the prize approaches, he remains a Nobel outsider.
What the coverage shows
The coverage barely overlaps: Newsweek is alone in explicitly framing the item as Pope Leo’s chances of winning the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize, while The Independent’s pieces instead center Maria Corina Machado and Trump in relation to the prize. The Independent is the only outlet here to mention Machado’s 2025 win and to ask who could beat Trump, whereas Newsweek provides only a brief announcement-oriented setup.
