  • Donald Trump got an honorable mention but didn't feature in the placings. I suppose he will claim that the voting panel are all leftists, considering he's such a gracious loser.

  • Congratulations, you turned this into a Trump discussion on post two.  Well done. 

  • What? She's in hiding. Maduro wants her killed. How on earth does this make my comment wishing her ill? I literally said "Let's hope she has a long life to enjoy it." Get a grip. BTW my comment has no

Let's hope she has a long life to enjoy it. The narco dictator Maduro won't be happy and will increase efforts to have her killed.

It is well mannered to congratulate her and not wish her ill will. Is this a kissing up to Trump behavior?

Anyone who is trying to take down the vicious dictator Maduro is OK in my books. Well done and well deserved.

Some have the syndrome so bad it doesn't matter what the article is about. "Asteroid Hurtling Toward Earth". "Trump's fault".

Someone's busy with the thumbs down. I get a thumbs down for saying Muchado is right wing. She is right wing. Just goes to show that someone on here has zero clue and/or is simply spamming the thumbs down. Looking at the above posters there's a definite front runner.

  • Popular Post

Had to search for her name. But she does sound like a brave person and well deserving of the prize. I hope this generates support across Venezuela for ridding the country of Maduro.

Fair point - I see her described as everything from Centrist Liberal to Far Right - it will certainly give her further credibility

As others have pointed out, Machado is no lefty.

 

Your misplaced sense of grievance knows no bounds.

Never heard of her.

She's not in the news because she's in hiding within Venezuela. She refuses to leave.

Trump shouldnt be anywhere near the nobel peace prize ...is this some kind of sick joke?...he should be behind bars for numerous reasons.

Which I believe Trump will state it was his 💡 for her to win!

I will confess, Venezuelan domestic politics doesn't happen to be one of my strong suits... 🙂

 

But I see that her efforts, even prior to today's prize, had earned her quite an international reputation.

 

And she does come from something of a right-wing political view, which makes her appealing to the Republican figures with ties to Central and South America.

María Corina Machado is a worthy winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. Commiseration to the loser.

I'm not expecting Trump to take the loss graciously... But, who knows... we could be surprised....

 

With him, invariably, it's always about HIM ... to the detriment of pretty much everyone else who might get in the way.

What do you mean?

 

Any totalitarian leader that orders drone strikes against private vessels in international waters without warning on the basis of secret memos, then has the drones circle around to double-tap the survivors is deserving of a peace prize!

Yes, never heard Trump and his minions mention her.
