the Prize. There's nothing he could have done to get the support of a committee of European politicians and intellectuals with the taint of Trump on him.

And if somehow he did win (there probably is a price whereby it could be bought), it's not as big a deal as it once was. Back in the 90's, they made Arafat a winner, along with Peres and Rabin. Making him a laureate knocked some of the shine off the prize for me.
