Donald Trump has said it would be “an honor” take Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado’s Nobel Peace Prize if she offered it to him, as he prepares to meet the exiled politician next week.
Machado has been in hiding due to persistent threats on her life, emerging only briefly in Oslo after a three-day mission in which she was smuggled out of the country with the help of the U.S. military for the Nobel ceremony.
It’s fair to say that if that happens, the whole Nobel Peace Prize thing will become worthless.
It became worthless in 1973 when they awarded it to Henry Kissinger
Kissinger was a war mongering piece of shit. Untold number of people died horribly violent deaths because of him. Small pox is more deserving of a peace prize than Kissinger, because at least it kills everyone equally. Kissinger targeted the poorest and most vulnerable
I look forward to someday pissing on his grave
Giving up a peace prize to end a war sounds eligability for a new peace prize.
It already was when they gave it to Obama while he was drone striking civilians.
I mean, any US president winning it would invalidate it.
It wasn’t giving it to Kissinger for his work on the Vietnam war that did it for you?
Hell, they gave it to Henry fucking Kissinger.
Well the fact that they gave her one of the first place means it’s kind of worthless, hell they gave one to Kissinger. It’s always been worthless.
She better hand it over, or she’s gonnaa get peace’d right into prison.
Read up on Machado. She’s a real capitalist enabling cunt. She probably had a role to play in all that’s happening.
A true traitor of the people. Par for the course of Nobel peace prize winners. Kissinger won one, for example.
- Wins the prize.
- Sees tRump whining about not winning it for being the worst thing since Hitler.
- Offers tRump the peace prize medal to remove Maduro.
- tRump does the removal.
- Visits later on and returns home with a new Nobel medal.
I swear, if I’m right I will shit my pants live on social media…
Man, I hope she’s fucking with him…
Why would she be? She’s a huge fan of Trump.
That’s not how prizes work though…
This is some Michael Scott move
😂. Oh wait, this isn’t The Onion?!?
Didn’t you know that Nobel prizes were bearer tokens?
I mugged Syukuro Manabe the other day and found the a Nobel Prize for physics in his wallet. I’m super smart now.
How’s did the horrible person even win this? What a fucken joke
Conservatives:
“Oil industry’s chosen candidate happy to swap worthless bauble for entire country”
that’s not how it works, lol… he wants a nobel peace prize with the name Machado on it?
Sounds like a threat to me…
Imagine what could happen if she wouldn’t give it to himHow could she transfer the Nobel prize? Sure, prize winners get a medal, a diploma, and monetary award, but what’s really important is the recognition and the honor of being a Nobel laureate. A lot of them give the prize money to charity, and…
…oh lord, it’s the gold medal. [REDACTED] is such a toddler that he’s captivated by shiny, gold baubles.
He wants every single cent and the clout. Just like the biggest shit on the face of this planet (ever) would
Donald “Smaug” Trump
[REDACTED] is such a toddler that he’s captivated by shiny, gold baubles.
Hey what the fuck man?
Spit out our coffee hahaha 😂
No no, you see…the brackets imply it’s optional. You are not optional. You are EXPECTED!
Honestly, if I could buy the reign over my country with a medal, I would try
I mean, Trump stole the soccer Club World Cup trophy and put it in the Oval office, leaving the actual champions with a replica.
He doesn’t give a shit about the accomplishment, only about the prize.
He’s a malignant narcissist. He’s literally crazy. It wouldn’t surprise me if all of the actions he’s taken against Venezuela since the Prize was announced comes down to this attempt to literally start a war to steal it and then scream “Nah nah nah! I’m as good as Obamna! No! Better! The best!”
All we’ve needed this whole time is a raccoon trap.
It’s like the Purple Heart all over again.
Though at the same time, it’s not really that much of a surprise, is it? The man loves gold-coloured things.
So that’s what’s truly behind the invasion. Oil is just a cover. He just wants that Nobel price.
Honestly, seeing how crooked, petty and deranged he is, I wouldn’t be surprised anymore if this would actually be true.
pretty sure the nobel prize is a cover for the oil/subjugation, actually I’m convinced his entire personality is a cover really
it gets people talking and stops them from worrying about the things that actually move money and resources in this world
I’ve talked to people who voted for Trump. I asked why they voted for him. Their answer: “I don’t agree with him on any level, but he talks in a way I can understand and other politicians I agree with more I don’t understand, so I just voted for him.”
Honestly, what the actual fuck.
Facts and logic are of the past somehow. The dystopian world portrayed in the movie Idiocracy became a reality, although that movie was way too optimistic: they listed to the smart person.
that’s really interesting and sad, I wonder how much of that is them actually not being able to understand vs them being convinced they can’t understand
kinda feels like the worst type of a feedback loop where people just start rejecting external information
Politics are getting more extreme. Screaming people, far against each other, no middle area, etc. Many just don’t have the energy to follow all that bullshit. Going back and forth. They just want something clear instead of difficult choices. It drains me too, but I can’t vote on something I do not support and I need to know which politicians are full of shit and spread fake news.
It matches his malignant narcissism.
I would be honored if Michael Phelps gave me all his gold medals from Beijing. Then I’d be the best swimmer of all time.
I see some Trumpie is going to a pull a Putiny.
