Nobel for Trump: María Corina Machado, Venezuela's opposition leader and the most recent Nobel Peace Prize recipient, decided to hand over the prize to President Donald Trump during a meeting at the White House yesterday, knowing he'd long coveted it.
The Norwegian Nobel Committee, ever the hall monitors, quickly clarified that the prize is not transferable. Who cares? If Machado believes this is strategically smart, in order to garner influence over Trump during this tenuous transition period in Venezuela, then it makes a lot of sense that she'd try to give him the thing he believes was taken from him.
