Someone obviously put a bug in Trump’s ear to say the right thing, but no, there is nothing in Trump’s history to suggest there will be any significant consequences for KSA. Just the way he slow rolled sanctions on Russia, he’ll sweep this under the rug after the midterms.
This is the same guy penning in reporters at his rallies like a herd of cattle and calling them “enemies of the people”. You don’t get to just walk that back as if we have no functioning limbic system.
Fake news only comes from bad reporters so I don’t see why tRump would care about the man at all
going to be interesting watching him snivel his way through this episode considering he is the last guy on the planet who wants to slap the saudi prince for being a bad guy.
All bolivating gibberish tongue tied backasswards rhetoric to get out the other side asap.
right before the election no less
“There will be severe punishment…”
“… for whoever made up this FAKE story about a FAKE murder of a FAKE reporter.”
'glubble glubble tremendous…and the is it to bladdha bladdha big very me…gruh gruh good …watch next week for the exciting reveal…bblorrgghh"
I didn’t think he was missing anymore. I thought since he recorded his death and dismemberment that we knew what happened.
Trump, true to form, has TR’s “Speak softly and carry a big stick” backwards. He’s a dope and he doesn’t know how to negotiate.
Yes he is so over his head on this one.
But never one to miss an opportunity, he is trying to use this to pretend he cares about freedom of the press.
Trump has made his indifference plain for the world to see, with all the bad fallout it will bring.
The only people he will fool with this is his followers, who need something to latch onto to keep pretending he isn’t a horrible person.
Fake President says what?
I’ll believe in consequences when I see them.
And, believe it of not, the world is seeing it.
In the US, not so much.
Trump jr apparently thinks Kashoggi is still alive and free.
There’s more at stake here. Dumpster’s real estate deals and murder. Just another of the many reasons he cannot and should not be a potus.
Katy Tur, et al, will be really happy to hear that he’s seen the light.
Lindsey must have said something to him.
me right now
Lindsey is that likely someone…
Theres more at stake because Dumpy launders Saudis money . ( He gets commissions on ALL the worldwide money he launders ) .
Different audience, different story. But he has zero incentive to get into a conflict with MBS over whacking some guy. Whacking people impresses him, and MBS can help him with money. So that’s that. He’ll keep promising that just as soon as the facts are known there’ll be serious repercussions. And he’ll keep promising just as long as it takes for this to blow over.
