María Corina Machado said in an interview on “Hannity” tonight that she dedicated her Nobel Peace Prize to Trump as soon as she learned she had been awarded it, saying she believed in him even more after Trump’s capture of Maduro.

Asked whether she had offered to give Trump the prize, Machado said: “It hasn’t happened yet, but I’d certainly love to be able to personally tell him that we believe — the Venezuelan people, because this is a prize of the Venezuelan people — certainly want to give it to him and share it with him.”
Machado added that international leaders should not trust Delcy Rodríguez, Venezuela’s interim leader, calling her “one of the main architects of torture, persecution, corruption, narco-trafficking” and an ally of Russia, China and Iran.
Machado said that she hopes to return to Venezuela as soon as possible but that for now she thinks she is more useful to her cause in exile.
