Nobel Peace Prize is not transferable

The winner of this year's Nobel Peace Prize, María Corina Machado, is to meet Trump next week.

There is an effort by some for her to give the prize to Trump.

Even if she did, it would be a meaningless gesture.

Nobel Institute says that Nobel Peace Prize is neither revocable nor transferable, once awarded.

What a pathetic man is in the White House.

He'd accept the trophy from Machado and gloat about it to his dying day.

the Nobel prize. Kind of like those gold colored resin statuettes that vaguely look like Oscars - you can get them at most any dollar store or craft emporium.

And think that made him part of the winning team and brag about it.

The man is quite literally delusional.
