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.
Thank you Trump for attacking the brave people of Venezuela like I’ve been asking the US and Israel to do for years before I got this Peace Prize. Socialism is the work of the devil, and I claim to be a progressive!
If anyone still thinks the “opposition” is not entirely subservient to western interests at this point, they will never learn otherwise.
What an embarresment for the Nobel Institute.
The Nobel institute was already kind of an embarrassment with what they’ve been doing for the past decade.
The Nobel peace prize is just a sad affair
All Nobel prizes should just sell them on Ebay to show how little value it has.
I get that she probably realizes he’s a simpleton and you can get a simpleton to do what you want if you give them gifts.
But still. Have some self respect.
From my talking with someone who grew up under a nation with a corrupt regime, self respect is a luxury that people under such a regime cannot afford when dealing with the government.
Small, petty, corrupt government personnel are a way of life and people just accept this sort of stuff as mundane fact of life.
So such folks are uniquely emotionally prepared for this sort of interaction.
She also loves Israel, go figure.
Not sure what this nobel peace prize is supposed to mean at this point.
What a cheap whore
Another Dunning-Krugerrand for the pile
Low hanging griftard…
“You can grab them by the peace prize… They let you do anything”
Literally this
this is so embarrassing for everyone involved, yikes.
Even for the Nobel Price Committee to some degree. I will be interested in what their reaction will be.
They already said that the price is given in the moment and cant be regifted or removed because later acts.
So in a way Trump is just as much nobel price winner as much as my cousing is Olympic ski jumping gold metalist. He bought the metal from auction, but it does not mean he earned it.
…she just gave and regifted it.
I tought my olympic medal anectode would be good enough. Or do you think that if Michael Phelps gave you you one of his medals it would make you a better swimmer?
Even the Nobel Prize committee? You mean the ones who
gavesold it to her in the first place?
I gotta say, solid contender for most pathetic image of 2026.
Washington’s up there like, “Told you fuckers political parties were a problem!”
It would be funny if she got a chocolate medal to gift him. Like this if you have not seen those medals with chocolate inside.
It’s beyond parody, it’s apocalyptically stupid, it can’t be ridiculed because it’s self-ridiculing in a way that’s never been done before. Merely looking at this image makes you dumber. It’s a vortex, a black hole of stupidity and hubris.
Your words are like poetry.
This will age as well as this picture:

And it’s just mid January…
It STILL hasn’t been a year since that fetid piece of pig shit assumed office!
Yeah, I’ve had to remind my friends since roughly late November of this whenever they would gasp and say a variation of, “An there is still three more years of this left”.
Yeah, it feels very disorienting honestly, like we just lived through a year in 2 weeks, heh.
By 2027 I’ll be a decade older. Or dead. Probably dead.
Before: bribes done in secret, big scandal if journalists found out
Now: bribes are given in front of hundreds of journalists and photographers and the receiver is smiling like a toddler getting a box of Lego Duplo
Dumbest bribe ever
fuck I swear this is pathetic enough to cause an integer overflow or something
So pathetic for the both of them
