Donalf Trump didn't win the Nobel Peace Prize in the end, but he did get a phone call from winner María Corina Machado, who apparently — according to Trump — told him she was accepting the award "in honor of you."

After sniggering at the clip of Trump recounting this, in the video above, Jimmy Kimmel reveals that this is one goal he's more than happy for the president to keep trying to win.

"So now Trump's focused on winning the prize next year, which is fine!" Kimmel says. "Let him keep trying to make peace. I'm fine with coming up with prizes and trophies to motivate him — give him the Nobel Re-open the Government and Leave Healthcare Alone Prize."
