Not surprising. Trump doesn't trust intelligence in general - anyone following the Russia stuff knows this.Trump is saying he trusts Saudi Arabia more than our intelligence agencies.
Cool.
He's almost like he's anti-intelligence. And I mean that in every way you can imagine.moleculo said:Not surprising. Trump doesn't trust intelligence in general - anyone following the Russia stuff knows this.
Buncha bombs in the air...Does anyone think right now, if put on the spot, that Trump could correctly recite the National Anthem? Not sing it, just say the words out loud and in order.
Saudi Arabia is Radical Islamic Terrorism....Additionally, Saudi Arabia has agreed to spend billions of dollars in leading the fight against Radical Islamic Terrorism.
Can I enter this into evidence (as item #7108436) of why this clod has no business hijacking the Presidency of the U.S.?Statement from President Donald J. Trump on Standing with Saudi Arabia
America First!
The world is a very dangerous place!...
Jesus Christ. This is disgraceful.Statement from President Donald J. Trump on Standing with Saudi Arabia
America First!
The world is a very dangerous place!
The country of Iran, as an example, is responsible for a bloody proxy war against Saudi Arabia in Yemen, trying to destabilize Iraq's fragile attempt at democracy, supporting the terror group Hezbollah in Lebanon, propping up dictator Bashar Assad in Syria (who has killed millions of his own citizens), and much more. Likewise, the Iranians have killed many Americans and other innocent people throughout the Middle East. Iran states openly, and with great force, "Death to America!" and "Death to Israel!" Iran is considered "the world's leading sponsor of terror."
On the other hand, Saudi Arabia would gladly withdraw from Yemen if the Iranians would agree to leave. They would immediately provide desperately needed humanitarian assistance. Additionally, Saudi Arabia has agreed to spend billions of dollars in leading the fight against Radical Islamic Terrorism.
After my heavily negotiated trip to Saudi Arabia last year, the Kingdom agreed to spend and invest $450 billion in the United States. This is a record amount of money. It will create hundreds of thousands of jobs, tremendous economic development, and much additional wealth for the United States. Of the $450 billion, $110 billion will be spent on the purchase of military equipment from Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon and many other great U.S. defense contractors. If we foolishly cancel these contracts, Russia and China would be the enormous beneficiaries - and very happy to acquire all of this newfound business. It would be a wonderful gift to them directly from the United States!
The crime against Jamal Khashoggi was a terrible one, and one that our country does not condone. Indeed, we have taken strong action against those already known to have participated in the murder. After great independent research, we now know many details of this horrible crime. We have already sanctioned 17 Saudis known to have been involved in the murder of Mr. Khashoggi, and the disposal of his body
Representatives of Saudi Arabia say that Jamal Khashoggi was an "enemy of the state" and a member of the Muslim Brotherhood, but my decision is in no way based on that – this is an unacceptable and horrible crime. King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman vigorously deny any knowledge of the planning or execution of the murder of Mr. Khashoggi. Our intelligence agencies continue to assess all information, but it could very well be that the Crown Prince had knowledge of this tragic event – maybe he did and maybe he didn't!
That being said, we may never know all of the facts surrounding the murder of Mr. Jamal Khashoggi. In any case, our relationship is with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. They have been a great ally in our very important fight against Iran. The United States intends to remain a steadfast partner of Saudi Arabia to ensure the interests of our country, Israel and all other partners in the region. It is our paramount goal to fully eliminate the threat of terrorism throughout the world!
I understand there are members of Congress who, for political or other reasons, would like to go in a different direction - and they are free to do so. I will consider whatever ideas are presented to me, but only if they are consistent with the absolute security and safety of America. After the United States, Saudi Arabia is the largest oil producing nation in the world. They have worked closely with us and have been very responsive to my requests to keeping oil prices at reasonable levels – so important for the world. As President of the United States I intend to ensure that, in a very dangerous world, America is pursuing its national interests and vigorously contesting countries that wish to do us harm. Very simply it is called America First!
I just heard a Republican Congressman: President Trump’s statement is “very unfortunate.”I’m sure we’ll hear shortly from the usual sources of Corker and Flake and Paul Ryan being “gravely concerned” by this statement. “Greatly troubled”, “deeply regretful”. But of course nothing will be done.
He is a coward, but I think this is more a case of being a greedy *******.Start with the overt cowardice. Trump's the biggest coward I've seen on the national stage in quite some time.
Then move onto the fact that love of money has completely replaced his sense of empathy, justice and decency. As stated above, he is garbage.Start with the overt cowardice. Trump's the biggest coward I've seen on the national stage in quite some time.
I think you are both correct.He is a coward, but I think this is more a case of being a greedy *******.
It can be both. I mean, look Sinn Fein, the world is a scary place!He is a coward, but I think this is more a case of being a greedy *******.
Oddly enough, weren't there reports recently that Mueller has been looking into interference connections outside of Russia, including Saudi Arabia?Might as well merge this thread with the Russia Investigation thread...
woah...that's nuts. Maybe they'll follow with an "it's disturbing" or even a "I don't agree with the President"...haha, I know that's ridiculous and would never happen.....I just heard a Republican Congressman: President Trump’s statement is “very unfortunate.”
Oh yeah.Oddly enough, weren't there reports recently that Mueller has been looking into interference connections outside of Russia, including Saudi Arabia?
Nader and Zamel have both been questioned by the Special Counsel’s Office and are reportedly cooperating with its probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 election. Nader has been questioned about his ties to high-level officials in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, his relationship with Zamel, and his interactions with the Trump campaign. Mueller has questioned Zamel about his role pitching top campaign officials on an influence operation to help Trump win the election—which could have broken federal election laws.
Mueller’s interest in Hannah’s communications and interactions with the two suggest the special counsel’s probe is broader than previously understood.
it's really nauseating....SA is one of the mean nasty parts of this world as evidenced by the brutal murder of a journalist and then a month long cover up in coordination with the US but hey we sold them some guns so they can continue murdering Yemen's so all is good.Pompeo speaking now: “It’s a mean nasty world out there. We have to look after American interests first!”
Don’t forget the Philippines. And hey maybe North Korea if things go well...it's really nauseating....SA is one of the mean nasty parts of this world as evidenced by the brutal murder of a journalist and then a month long cover up in coordination with the US but hey we sold them some guns so they can continue murdering Yemen's so all is good.
Imagine what our traditional allies think about this? Our new allies are Russia and SA, two of the most corrupt brutal authoritarian countries on the planet but hey they have money that they'll funnel to Trump and his businesses!
Millions of jobs. The king promised millions of American jobs.how is this putting America first? This is CLEARLY putting SA first...he should be impeached for this alone.
No big deal, just cozying on up to the country that brought us 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers as well as their primary source of funding.it's really nauseating....SA is one of the mean nasty parts of this world as evidenced by the brutal murder of a journalist and then a month long cover up in coordination with the US but hey we sold them some guns so they can continue murdering Yemen's so all is good.

Of course not. There should be a thread with a list of stories that the right wing "media" fails to report.I wanted to see how conservative sites were responding to the news but guess what? I can’t find it. It’s nowhere on Fox, it’s not on Free Republic, nowhere.
