The race to the bottom continues as the hapless frump and the gormless machado partake in a tasteless ceremony
where the undeserving recipient of the prize gives the medal to the even less deserving nominal head of the War Party
currently killing women and children in Somalia, Yemen, Syria, Gaza, Venezuela, Iran etc etc etc.
"...Political leaders in Norway have condemned the Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado’s “absurd” decision to present her Nobel peace prize medal to Donald Trump, accusing the US president of being a “classic showoff” who takes credit for other people’s work.
The Nobel laureate gave her medal to Trump at the White House on Thursday “in recognition [of] his unique commitment [to’] our freedom”. Several hours later, Trump wrote on Truth Social that Machado “presented me with her Nobel peace prize for the work I have done. Such a wonderful gesture of mutual respect.”
The Nobel Peace Center said on social media that “a medal can change owners, but the title of a Nobel peace prize laureate cannot”. The organisers of the prize, the Norwegian Nobel Committee and the Norwegian Nobel Institute, had already said that the prize “cannot be revoked, shared or transferred” when Machado first revealed her plan.
When Machado was awarded the prize in Oslo last month after making a dramatic, secret journey from Venezuela, the Nobel committee celebrated her long struggle for democracy against Nicolás Maduro’s “brutal, authoritarian state”. Since then, Trump has invaded Venezuela and removed Maduro, handing power over to Venezuela’s vice-president, Delcy Rodríguez.
Kirsti Bergstø, the leader of Norway’s Socialist Left party and its foreign policy spokesperson, said: “This is, above all, absurd. The peace prize cannot be given away.”
Trump’s recent threats to invade Greenland, she said, demonstrated why he was not a worthy recipient. “Trump will no doubt claim that he has now received it, but it cannot be transferred, and Trump’s repeated threats toward Greenland clearly demonstrate why it would have been madness to award him the prize,” Bergstø said.
