Trump here as he says he'd be honored to accept Mara Corina Machado's Nobel Prize if she wants to give it up to him:

* Trump can score The Hat Trick of Prestigious Awards if he can extort an Oscar and a Heisman Trophy out of a couple of chumps.



*I invite the BI MAGA peanut gallery to log in here. You have all had to become creative writing gymnasts in your attempts to justify and normalize his progressively Bizarro World actions. I'll be waiting.

The Nobel Prize itself cannot be transferred, shared, or revoked once awarded; the decision is final, though the prize money can be given to someone else. This rule was recently reaffirmed by the Norwegian Nobel Committee after Venezuelan opposition leader Mara Corina Machado offered her 2025 Peace Prize to Donald Trump, an offer the Committee stated is impossible under their statutes.

*If Trump won't take Machado's $1.2M in Nobel Peace Prize money in lieu of the hardware, the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo better gird its loins for some incoming.

"Trump to The New York Times, when asked if there are any checks on his global ambitions: "Yeah, there is one thing. My own morality*. My own mind. It's the only thing that can stop me."


"Thank God for this check on his power.

Going senile?

Called his own running mate INCOMPETENT.

Lmfao.

"……as history tells us, tyranny starts with public inattention.Americans have let themselves become so immune to Trump's methodology of lies, the window of acceptance has gotten wider and wider. Forget hoary whoppers like his epic rewrite of January 6th, or his wild claim that he's secured $18 trillion in investments in the U.S., or that he's ended eight foreign wars. It wasn't even of note when Trump threw out en passant on Friday at the White House convening of top oil execs, "I won Minnesota three times in my opinion." (And only his. He lost Minnesota three times.)

After Exxon CEO Darren Woods said at the meeting that Venezuela is "uninvestable" as an oil prospect in its current corrupt state, Trump later showed, with Caligulan caprice, that Woods would be punished for truth-telling. "I will probably be inclined to keep Exxon out," the Almighty pronounced on Air Force One.

Now, Trump's gone after Fed chair Jerome Powell, supposedly for the cost of the Fed renovation overruns, but actually for the transgression of adhering to monetary policy independence. Swap him out with a sock puppet!"

At a minimum, something worse. The man is a complete a-hole.

Donald Trump just sank to a new moral low.

The room that fell completely silent, Trump mocked President Biden by coughing and groaning, Biden who has cancer. No one laughed or clapped. They sat frozen.

He didn’t humiliate Biden in that moment.

He humiliated himself. pic.twitter.com/XbG9Q2FhjE
