The Trump administration does deserve credit for the normalization of reationships between Israel and two additional Arab countries. The press has been at times hesitant to give full credit for these achievements. Donald Trump and associates have made that difficult however by their general lack of credibility. After all, why would people separate this "Wonderful achievement" from Trump calling his management of the pandemic also a "Wonderful achievement". I recall Jared Kushner on the PBS News Hour toting the Emirates deal but he himself diminished its value by surrounding it with unrelated guff overflowing with fiction.

You can't have one puddle of credibility in an ocean of incredibility.

As far as Nobel Peace Prize is concerned, attributes such as commitment, motavation and even understanding come to mind. In the case for Donald Trump these are most questionable.

The press is mixed and lumping it all into one bag achieves little.
