    Remember that Obama got the medal at the beginning of his term.

      Are you suggesting that Obama is one of the Nobel Laureates negotiating to gift his medal to Trump? What do you think a former President wants from the current President?

        No. I am pointing out that Obama had received the prize in advance to make him bring peace instead of celebrating good deeds afterwards. In a way, they did already “turn over their medal for a favor from POTUS”.
