Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado told reporters she presented the medal for her Nobel Peace Prize to President Donald Trump at a private White House meeting on Thursday, but did not say if he accepted it.

“I think today is a historic day for us Venezuelans,” she said after the meeting with Trump, the first time the two have met in-person.

    What a dumb bitch. I think after this the Nobel committee should retrospectively take it away from her, so that orange fuck can’t claim that he got it.

      She got the Nobel Peace prize. Do you know who else got the Peace prize?

      Henry Kissinger.

          If you think Obama is comparable to Kissinger then you might be a Trump voter.

            Hey, there’s multiple options. They could be a “stay at home and not bother” voter instead. They are the largest electoral demographic in the US after all.

      I wish they would, but they have publicly stated that it can’t be transferred, shared, or revoked.

        Given Trump’s relation with reality and mental age, the formalism are irrelevant: in his mind if he has the shinny thing then the prize is his.

      She’s giving up a piece of metal in the hopes that it’ll help her country. The country that she’s the rightful president of.
