Not the first trophy given away

If one walks through the Nixo museum, besides the laughable Watergate room where the museum tries to describe away Nixon's crimes, then one will find Carl Yastrzemski's All Star game MVP.

On April 13, 1971, Carl "Yaz" Yastrzemski presented his 1970 All-Star Game MVP award to President Nixon.

5. Well then it's OK that Trump got the Peace Prize as a gift.

These prizes and trophies don't mean anything anyway too the recipients . Might as well not give them out at all.

6. I think based all the evidence

She values being leader of Venezuela vastly more than the peace prize. She calculated giving Trump what he wants will get her that. While this is possible, it's more likely she bribed Trump, ruined her legacy, and will get nothing from it but the shame of being associated with Trump.

7. Yep, the prize committee has to vet these winners. Give only to people who value them.
