Could the Germans Accept Trump with a Nobel Peace Prize?

NO.

It's likely not to be a topic with the national public TV news media.  I can't see them discussing this, or allowing anyone to bring it up.

Why the possibility?  Well....with the act of both North and South Korea staging a peaceful action, the likely end of the Korean War (at least on paper), and maybe some serious upgrade in life for the North Korean people.....the question would come around to how they resolved things, and there's Donald Trump standing there.  It's hard to avoid.

If the Nobel committee went this far and announced a threesome for the Nobel?  I just can't see them doing it.  They might go and just list the North and South Korean leaders.

But there's this problem laying there.  Imagine both showing up, and they gave great speeches.....laying the cornerstone to their whole situation due to the efforts of Trump.  Imagine the embarrassment of the Nobel crowd gathered. 

The comical side here is that unlike the Nobel that President Obama received in the first six months of his tenure.....there was never anything that could be listed except for him being the guy following George Bush (the most hated individual of all time, at least in 2008).

So you have roughy six month before the announcement of the award.  The odds here ought to be zero (at least the Germans would tell you that).  But can the Nobel committee stand to be embarrassed if the two guys get up and start chatting about their good friend....Donald?
