This whole thing is like, so messy

! I mean, Marรญa Corina Machado's idea of sharing the Nobel Peace Prize with Trump just shows how desperate she is for attention

. And now the Nobel Institute is all up in arms about their "rules" not being broken... yawn

. It's like they're trying to protect Trump from some kind of bad publicity, right?
But what really gets me is that Trump is using this as an excuse to attack Machado and undermine her credibility

. I mean, if he's so confident in his own ability to handle the crisis in Venezuela, why does he need a Nobel Peace Prize to prove it?

It's just another example of him trying to manipulate public opinion through PR spin

.
The real question here is: what kind of message are we sending when we allow politicians like Trump to use prestigious awards as leverage? Are we really saying that diplomacy and pressure can be achieved through backroom deals and PR stunts?

I think not. We need leaders who will take concrete action, not just tweet their way out of every problem
