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.
There is a fundamental psychological difference between Trump and me. I can’t imagine getting any joy out of a trophy I did nothing to earn
Putin, at least, I can kind of understand. It was a power play. He did it to prove he could rob someone of their most prized possession in front of their face, with zero consequences
What’s wild is every diatribe I’ve ever heard about participation trophies has been from a Maga voter.
