Trump Wants the Nobel Peace Prize & expects Machado to give it to him when she comes to

[riversedge]

So much is so wrong and dangerous about Trumps comment--not the least is that our
country is being run by Trump's big dangerous and greedy EGO!



YIKES! Donald Trump says that he wants the Nobel Prize that’s belonging to Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado and expects her to give it to him when she comes to DC next week.

1. If there was a Nobel prize for mediocrity he would deserve it more than anyone else.

[Wiz Imp]

26. Hell no. I'd kill for mediocrity at this point.

The only prize he would legitimately win is for being the worst human being on the planet.

[Solly Mack]

2. The man created fake magazine covers honoring himself. He doesn't care how he gets a "prize" because he'll tell the

lie he wants to tell about how he got it.

In his warped and very disturbed mind, it belongs to him anyway.

[underpants]

3. Don't fall for it Maria. He'd take it and you'll get nothing

You’d have no real authenticity or support. You’d be lucky to see next Christmas. Maduro’s henchmen are still everywhere there.

[Wiz Imp]

27. She's every bit as evil as Maduro and Trump.

The Nobel committee mad a ginormous mistake in giving her the prize.

[niyad]

30. Thank you. Having read about her after the announcement, I could not

understand what the hell the Committee was thinking.

[ms liberty]

4. This is what the whole thing was about for him.

His cabal of evil minions have wider plans, but the widdle man-baby just wants his gold attendance trophy.

[cbabe]

5. Give him a dollar store trinket. On a pretty ribbon. He won't know the difference.

[RedWhiteBlueIsRacist]

6. He's going to grab her by the Peace Prize.

[Irish_Dem]

9. Well played.

[Kid Berwyn]

7. Trump can't earn it, so he steals it.

There was no Nobel Prize for Crime until now.

[Irish_Dem]

11. Imagine thinking you can steal a top notch award and pretend it is yours.

[Kid Berwyn]

17. Only puerile, twisted and sickened minds would entertain such a thought.

[Irish_Dem]

19. What age child thinks you can steal an award and pretend you won it?

[Kid Berwyn]

20. Only those with a sickened mind -- probably planted by a NAZI parent.

Does kleptomania often begin in childhood? Per the Google A.I.:

Kleptomania often begins in childhood, adolescence, or early adulthood, with studies showing 35% of cases starting before age 11. While it can manifest early, it is most frequently diagnosed in late adolescence or early adulthood, sometimes triggered by stress, anxiety, or trauma. It is distinct from typical childhood stealing, as it involves an irresistible, tension-relieving urge.

PS: If you want to see a heck of a film noire on the subject:

While several years later, I'd bet a lot of the MK/ULTRA came from the premise of "a man making a woman do what she doesn't want to do."

[Irish_Dem]

25. I believe he has stolen quite a bit of White House and other American artifacts and treasures.

[Kid Berwyn]

35. Top Secrets, too.

George Will, of all people, reports doc missing from Merde-de-Lardo popped up for sale in Dubai. Bidding started at $2.5 million.

[Irish_Dem]

36. Yes his thefts are the biggest heist in US history.

[Srkdqltr]

8. Idiot

[Amaryllis]

10. Does he have no clue that it is meaningless if he didn't get it from the Nobel committee? (Rhetorical quesion.)

[Irish_Dem]

12. He probably thinks he can steal Miss America's crown and become the reigning beauty queen.

[maveric]

13. Perhaps Jon Voight can give trump his Oscar from 1979?

Why have to earn anything?

[Hugin]

16. I have a pinewood derby trophy from 1972 he's been trying to grab for years...

Also, my good eater ribbon from a stint in daycare.

[PikaBlue]

22. Not your "Good Eater Award".

That one is irreplaceable!

[Hugin]

14. Instantly turning every Nobel Prize ever awarded to...

Shit.

Hey, that’s what he does. It’s his talent.

[UTUSN]

15. There's info out there it can't be passed, but we're in lawless KRASNOV territory.

[Initech]

18. He can shove his stupid fucking Noble Prize right up his ass!

[dalton99a]

21. NEXT: Trump demands an Emmy, an Oscar, and an Olympic gold medal - "Cough it up or prepare to suffer"

[Wounded Bear]

23. Just like the Purple Heart some deranged MAGA Vet gave to him...

Stolen valor is the only valor he has.

[dalton99a]

24. +1

[niyad]

29. I was beginning to wonder if I was the only person who remembered

that insulting travesty.

[niyad]

28. JFC, even if she hands him her prize, he still hasn't been awarded it by the

Nobel Committee. This would have no more significance then when that idiot veteran gave krasnov his purple heart, an insult to every other person who has ever been a recipient.

31. They should dissolve it in aqua regia to stop him getting his hands on it, like Bohr did with Nazis

When Germany invaded Denmark during World War II, the Nazis were ready to confiscate the gold Nobel Prizes of German physicists Max von Laue (1914 recipient) and James Franck (1925 recipient). After jailed peace activist Carl von Ossietzky had received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1935, the German government prohibited citizens from accepting or keeping any Nobel Prize. Max von Laue and James Franck sent their 23 karat gold medals to Niels Bohr’s Institute of Theoretical Physics in Copenhagen, for protection.

The Nazis had gained power after the German federal election held in March 1933. A month after this election took place, the Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service ordered the dismissal of all Jewish civil servants, along with sympathizers and Nazi opposition party members – this included Max von Laue and James Franck. Franck was exempt from this new law, due to his prior German military service, but regardless, resigned from the University of Gottingen in April of 1933. Before leaving Germany in November 1933, Franck assisted English physicist, Frederick Lindemann, in finding dismissed Jewish scientists work overseas. In December 1933, Laue was let go from his position as advisor to the Physikalisch-Technische Reichsanstalt (PTR). Laue and friend, German chemist, Otto Hahn, secretly helped persecuted colleagues emigrate from Germany.

When Germany invaded Denmark on April 9th, 1940, Niels Bohr knew he had to hide the medals entrusted to him, or else the prizes would be seized. After discussing the option of burying them, Bohr and Hungarian chemist, George de Hevesy, decided instead to dissolve the gold medals in nitro-hydrochloric acid, also known as aqua regia. Both awards liquefied into an orange colored substance and were placed inside a flask stored on a laboratory shelf in the Niels Bohr Institute. De Hevesy fled Copenhagen for Sweden in 1943, leaving the flask behind.

After the war, De Hevesy returned to find the solution of aqua regia undisturbed. He then precipitated the gold out of the acid. He sent the gold to the Nobel Society. The Nobel Society was able to recast the prize medals. These recast medals were presented to Franck and von Laue in 1952.

My husband majored in military history at the Air Force Academy. I'll have to see if he knows about this.

34. Nobel Committee Says Peace Prize Cannot Be Transferred After Machado Says She Wants to 'Share It' With Trump

This award is not transferable

The Norwegian Nobel Institute said that a Nobel Peace Prize cannot be transferred or shared with another person, responding to comments by Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado, who said she wanted to "share" her 2025 Nobel Peace Prize with U.S. President Donald Trump.

"A Nobel Prize cannot be revoked nor transferred to others. Once the laureate or laureates are announced, the decision is final," said Erik Aasheim, a spokesperson for the Norwegian Nobel Institute, which serves as the secretariat for the Norwegian Nobel Committee. Aasheim added that while the prize itself is not transferable, laureates are free to dispose of the prize money as they see fit.

The statement followed remarks by Machado during a Fox News interview on Monday, in which she praised Trump's actions that led to the capture of Venezuela's former president, Nicolás Maduro, and said that "because this is the prize of the Venezuelan people, certainly we want to give it to him and share it with him." Machado said she had not spoken directly with Trump since October, when she dedicated the award to him after it was announced.
