I mean it's right there in the headline. She beat him to the Nobel Peace Prize.

So they count being morally dead as a disqualifying factor too?
you said she beat him

I wonder what would happen if they gave the Nobel Peace Prize to Putin?

He'd say it's well-deserved. It's a different power dynamic than with Machado.

But does she have a FIFA peace prize?

The real answer is that she might have ushered in actual democracy. Trump doesn't want a change of government; he wants to control the one that's already in power.

As if he was a serious contestant. I saw an interview with one of the jurers and she was very clear Trump would never ever be considered.

Did Trump invade Venezuela because she was Venezuelan?
