(7,422 posts)Does the rule also apply to the Noble Peace prize or FIFA peace prize?
Can Orange Julius sell them to the highest bidder of acquired or earned?
This only proclamation covers the Nobel Prize, not the Noble the idiot scribbles on crayon about.

(175,025 posts)This award is not transferable

"A Nobel Prize cannot be revoked nor transferred to others. Once the laureate or laureates are announced, the decision is final," said Erik Aasheim, a spokesperson for the Norwegian Nobel Institute, which serves as the secretariat for the Norwegian Nobel Committee. Aasheim added that while the prize itself is not transferable, laureates are free to dispose of the prize money as they see fit.
The statement followed remarks by Machado during a Fox News interview on Monday, in which she praised Trump's actions that led to the capture of Venezuela's former president, Nicolás Maduro, and said that "because this is the prize of the Venezuelan people, certainly we want to give it to him and share it with him." Machado said she had not spoken directly with Trump since October, when she dedicated the award to him after it was announced.

And his Foxnews addled cult of nimrods will eat it up. And more merch will be sold and the grift goes on with a recharge.

He thinks all he has to do is show God that he won the Nobel peace prize and God will overlook all the horrible misdeeds and bad behavior in his life and let him into heaven.
He actually believes this.

llmart
(17,327 posts)Everything about him is a fraud, so no, he doesn't worry about going to hell. In fact, he probably believes he IS God.
You have it correct that he is only guided by his very base instincts, none of which are Christian.

(546 posts)Obama got it, he was overseeing two wars. I think the Nobel committee was hoping that by giving him the award, Obama would stop the wars.
It didn't work.
For those who say Obama didn't deserve it, they're right. Even Obama said he didn't deserve it.

malthaussen
(18,404 posts)Considering some of the clowns to whom the committee has awarded it, it's value is proportional to the worst recipient. It's a lot like the various Halls of Fame in that, or sports awards like Golden Gloves and MVPs. Some of the choices just suck.

It would just end up being auctioned off to pay one of Old Colostomy's obligations after he croaks, so I hope she'd be cool with that

Maybe Trump will try that . . . and at his age . . . this could be just what we need.

(4,201 posts)She should give him one of those chocolate medallions in a gold wrapper, and write "Peace Prize," on it with a Sharpie. He's so brainless he won't know the difference.

AverageOldGuy
(3,364 posts)She desperately wants to kiss his ass and get his endorsement for election as President of Venezuela.
He desperately wants a Nobel Peace Prize.
If she gives hers to him, in the minds of reasonable, intelligent people it will be an empty, stupid gesture.
In his mind its an honor; in her mind it gains her some important support; in the minds of 35% of the US electorate it makes him a Nobel laureate.
Neither he nor she gives a rats ass what reasonable, intelligent people think.
