So Saudi Arabia is just like every other country in the region except they have the most wealth. Trump probably sees them as the lessor of two evils (Iran) to have the most control in the region. Let them keep killing each other but I’d prefer we stay out of it, including canceling the arms deals. Let them kill each other with Russian or Chinese weapons
Mattis and Pompeo face bipartisan pressure following Khashoggi briefing
To be clear, these senators aren’t just accusing the administration of missing the point on Khashoggi; they’re saying they feel misled and that the administration has obscured the truth. […]
Questioning Trump is not unprecedented for Republicans in Congress; the fact that they are going there on Pompeo and even Mattis, who is perhaps the most bipartisan figure in the administration, shows the severe degree of concern about the lack of consequences. These senators are serving notice that they won’t back down without a fight – a fight that could tar both Pompeo’s and Mattis’s legacies. No one who agrees to be associated with Trump comes away unscathed. Mattis and Pompeo face bipartisan pressure following Khashoggi briefing | MSNBC
Pompeo and Mattis are just two more LYING Trump BUTT-KISSERS!
They had their marching orders: deceive the Senate and the American people.
The Republican senators should be furious. They know it's OK for Trump to mislead his Trumpie followers, understandably ... but it is NOT OK to lie to themselves.
