Donald Trump is a massive outsider for the award at 175/1

Former US President Donald Trump is the biggest outsider with bookmakers at 175/1 to win the award which will come as no surprise to anyone.

Trump though has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize before with Norwegian Christian Tybring-Gjedde putting him up the award back in 2021 for helping broker a deal between Israel and the United Arab Emirates.

This was not the first time that Tybring-Gjedde nominated him for the award with the Norwegian also doing so back in 2019 for his work with North Korea according to Reuters.

The latest betting market puts him bottom of the pile as the biggest outsider to win this year's award and it's unlikely that he'll receive a nomination this time around.
