  Trump: May I see?

  Machado: Ho ho ho, see with your eyes, not with your hands!

  Trump: Please, we are all amigos here!

  Homer: Maria.. I think we can trust the president..

  Machado: [hands it to Trump, and waits a couple of seconds.] Now, give it back...

  Trump: Give what back?

What a spineless sellout.

Useless too, as the elections in Venezuela are a long way ahead, 90% after he's gone , if they'd be held at all.

Trump and people like him (bullies) can only thrive in a world of spineless individuals.

Trump is an evil authoritarian but I think this is (sadly) a smart play by Machado. If her flattery gets him to change his mind and put her government in charge then it's a major (and easy) win.

It's a disaster for the Nobel Peace prize. It wouldn't shock me if they try to rescind it; I'm sure they don't like seeing it be used as a bargaining chip. Everything Trump touches really does die.

Is there no end to the conga-line of sycophants abasing themselves before the petulant godzilla in Mar-a-lago?

Truly, we are living in the era of people revealing their true self. No fig leafs, no pretences, no affordances to civility, nobility, morality or ethics.

Proof that she never deserved it in the first place.
