John Legend is cheering for President Trump to clinch the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize … but it’s not as straightforward as it seems.
The Grammy award winner took to Instagram on Saturday, expressing his reasons for supporting Trump’s bid for the prestigious award … detailing the significant changes he believes Trump must embrace.
The White House
John mentioned that while a peace agreement between Israel and Gaza would be a promising start, if Trump truly aspires to win, he must withdraw the National Guard from U.S. cities and halt ICE operations that threaten communities.
Moreover, Trump should cease authorizing missile strikes and address several other issues to be deemed deserving of the prestigious accolade.
John expressed that his experience as a parent has taught him the value of positive reinforcement over negative tactics. He believes adopting a positive outlook towards Trump now might yield better results, considering that previous methods like indictments and impeachments didn’t succeed.
While some argue Trump has already made sufficient contributions for the award, John insists there’s still much work to be done.
