Lmaoooooooooooooooooo

Dumb woman. Trump will never forgive you from stealing the Nobel from him, and he has already struck a deal with Rodríguez anyway. Get fucked bitch.

Damn it feels good to be a gangster

President Donald Trump’s administration will keep the money generated from the sale of Venezuelan oil across multiple bank accounts, the largest of which is located in Qatar, according to a report.

Senior officials told Semafor that the U.S. has now completed its first sale of the South American country’s oil in a deal worth $500 million.

They justified the decision to hold some of the proceeds in the Gulf state, rather than in U.S. banks, by pointing out that it is a neutral location from which the funds could be freely and safely moved without risk of seizure.

Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the ranking Democrat on the Senate Finance Committee, hit out at the strategy and said: “There is no basis in law for a president to set up an offshore account that he controls so that he can sell assets seized by the American military.

“That is precisely a move that a corrupt politician would be attracted to.”

Trump’s friendly relationship with Qatar was previously placed under the spotlight last May when he was heavily criticized for accepting a $400 million Boeing jet as a gift from the country.

And all she got was a gift bag.

LoL, what a fucking retard. Trump has no interest in democracy just trying to pilfer Venezuela.

So now Trump has TWO peace prizes! The first person in the world to have that? One from FIFA and one from Nobel.

he has the piece of metal... (possibly two if he's grabbed Roosevelt's which is in the White House too)

it's engraved w/ her name... hard to say if he'll change it... given he's such a pathetic child shitbag he just might

Trolling aside, this was a pathetic move by her.

The Nobel peace prize has played out its role. It has lost its value. Might give someone a chewing gum instead.

"And all she got was a gift bag."

The only thing in the bag was knee pads.

God, how humiliating for Trump.

To be offered, but then actually enthusiastically accept a participation Trophy.

They awarded her the prize as she was encouraging Trump to bomb and invade her country. The prize has been a joke for a long time.

Rugian:

Cynical perhaps, but her goal is to restore democracy to her country; and if abasing herself to Trump might do that, it's just a certificate and a medal.

Far more pathetic is for Trump to accept (and your reaction also). It's displays a total lack of all the classical values of manhood, and those of a desperate needy child.

"Cynical perhaps, but her goal is to restore democracy to her country"

How did you arrive at this determination?

It's what she's spent the last few years doing, including standing in opposition to the Chavistas in a way that's pretty dangerous. If she just wanted power, she'd have aligned with them.

How do you determine otherwise?

"It's what she's spent the last few years doing, including standing in opposition to the Chavistas in a way that's pretty dangerous."

Is it? She appears to still be alive and in good health, and does the previous US tools Juan Guaidó and Pedro Carmona ... who literally tried to overthrow the Chavista government.

So maybe not so dangerous.


"If she just wanted power, she'd have aligned with them."

If she had aligned with them, she'd be nobody just like everyone else that aligned with them.

Have opposition figures been rounded up and executed in Venezuela as a result of Maduro's capture?

So fucking embarrassing that he would accept it. No normal person would. Maga is such utterly tasteless trailer trash.

On the topic of Nobel, his best friend was a peace activist who was not pleased with him inventing dynamite. She is often noted as having a lot to do with giving him a guilty conscience and leading to his decision to initiate the Nobel peace prize.

At the time, he defended his invention with the argument that it would end wars because who is going to use something as devastating as dynamite against an enemy if the enemy also has dynamite?

Yeah, that M.A.D. argument worked well.

The end result of so obviously pandering with the award.

What a truly laughable display of personally exchanging medals, and the committee feeling the need to rebut on social media.

This timeline will never recover

The pathetic part is Machado presenting the award to Trump, clearly in the desperate hope that it would cause Trump to pivot to supporting her claims in Venezuela.

That train left the station as soon as Trump cut a deal with Rodriguez. She humiliated herself for nothing.

It was my Great Honor to meet María Corina Machado, of Venezuela, today. She is a wonderful woman who has been through so much. María presented me with her Nobel Peace Prize for the work I have done. Such a wonderful gesture of mutual respect. Thank you María!

Oof. He gave her absolutely nothing.

(Other than the swag bag. She should hold on to it - it might be worth a few grand as a collector's item one day)

she did what she could (& it's not like it was her idea, it was repeatedly suggested to her)... it's a piece of metal that may possibly gain her some influence w/ the lil boy king

if they ever have legit elections, now he -possibly- won't undermine her as he did when announcing our plan to plunder their oil (oh, & that we captured Maduro)

(though he probably still will... if the remains of Maduro's regime keep playing ball on oil, he'll just want to continue w/ that relationship)

It's never for nothing. He may appoint her to the board he's forming to praise him as he governs Gaza.
