2. She should require a very high price up front before he gets it

Trump has invaded her country and kidnapped the person who refused to concede an election. However, he has backed the VP and, to this point, has not called for elections. In addition, there are reports that the oppression by the regime has increased. Not to mention attempting to steal their resources.

She has something he dearly wants, even though if she were to "give" it to him, it is not the same as being awarded it. It reminds me of him accepting someone's earned purple heart after he said he wanted one. Her motivation would probably be that she may think she could gain something to make life in Venezuela better. If so, someone needs to explain how he throughout his life never honored his promises and commitments to others.

Not to mention, even if she gives him her Nobel prize, all he gets is a decoration. The honor is still hers. She is the official winner. Her name is there for history. He, in fact, will be seen as twisting arms of others to get peace prizes. After all, who would have thought a soccer organization would award a peace prize.
