From the New York Post: President Trump on Friday described it as “very nice” that former rival Hillary Clinton promised to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize if he’s able to end Russia’s invasion of Ukraine without Kyiv being forced to give up territory.
“Well, uh, that was … very nice,” Trump told Fox News “Special Report” host Bret Baier, after a prolonged pause.
“I may have to start liking her again,” the president added of the former first lady, secretary of state and two-time defeated presidential candidate, as he traveled aboard Air Force One for a high-stakes meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska.
Clinton’s surprising offer to nominate her 2016 presidential election opponent for the illustrious prize came during an interview with the “Raging Moderates” podcast released Friday.

Clinton doubled down in a post on X, writing, “If Donald Trump negotiates an end to Putin’s war on Ukraine without Ukraine having to cede territory, I’ll nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize myself.”
“Trump should know by now that he’s not meeting with a friend of the United States today. He is meeting with an adversary who wants America’s destruction and the end of the entire western alliance,” she added.
