Although he does not deserve the accolade, they only accepted nominations for this year's recipient through January 31st of this year. He'd only been president for 11 days and had already failed to end the Russian war against Ukraine on the first day, like he promised. Not many people, including Trump and his posse, seem to realize he doesn't qualify for this year's win in any way at all.
Congratulations to Maria Machado, brave defender of democracy.
