Anyone that still supports Trump after this is a confirmed traitor to this country.

Washington (AFP) - US President Donald Trump said Friday he found Saudi Arabia's explanation about the death of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi credible and termed it an "important first step."

Trump added if the US takes action, he does not want it to impact arms sales to the kingdom, which said Khashoggi was killed in a fight at its Istanbul consulate. Turkish officials pointed to a state-sanctioned hit. "I do, I do," Trump said when asked if he found the Saudis' explanation credible, adding: "It's early, we haven't finished our review or investigation, but... I think it's a very important first step."

"I would prefer, if there is going to be some form of sanction or what we may determine to do, if anything... that we don't use as retribution canceling $110 billion worth of work, which means 600,000 jobs," he said during a visit to Arizona, referring to a major arms deal with the kingdom.

Trump has sent mixed messages about Khashoggi for days, vowing a severe response but also saying that the United States wants to preserve its close relationship with the conservative kingdom.

Game Over, cucks.

Remember when Trump said he's going to be hard on Saudi Arabia?

Also, remember when he said we'd have a wall and Mexico would pay for it?

Trump supporters are such cucks lmao

I heard that it could have just been some rogue killers behind this. Many people are saying it. For all we know it may have been China or George Soros.

So why did MBS lie at first and say that Kashoggi was alive and left the consulate?

Name one time any US president, on either side (or independent), has actually stood up to the Saudis.

Don't get me wrong, it's absolutely shitty that Trump doesn't, especially after saying he would, but he's hardly the first to be letting them get away with anything and helping them cover it up.

The difference this time is that Saudi Arabia actually lied openly.

Also, Barack Obama has openly criticized Saudi Arabia in the past--
https://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/10/world/middleeast/obama-criticizes-the-free-riders-among-americas-allies.html

In a series of interviews with The Atlantic magazine published Thursday, Mr. Obama said a number of American allies in the Persian Gulf as well as in Europe were free riders, eager to drag the United States into grinding sectarian conflicts that sometimes had little to do with American interests. He showed little sympathy for the Saudis, who have been threatened by the nuclear deal Mr. Obama reached with Iran.

The Saudis, Mr. Obama told Jeffrey Goldberg, the magazines national correspondent, need to find an effective way to share the neighborhood and institute some sort of cold peace. Reflexively backing them against Iran, the president said, would mean that we have to start coming in and using our military power to settle scores. And that would be in the interest neither of the United States nor of the Middle East.

Mr. Obamas frustration with much of the Arab world is not new, but rarely has he been so blunt about it. He placed his comments in the context of his broader struggle to extract the United States from the bloody morass of the Middle East so that the nation can focus on more promising, faster-growing parts of the world, like Asia and Latin America.

Obama wasn't great when it came to Saudi Arabia but he was actually better than we had seen for a while. Saudi Arabia was somewhat cold to Obama, particulary because Obama wanted to break the wall with Iran

Ha Bernie Sanders been elected, we probably would have slipped even further away from SA. (Hillary likely would have been better than Trump but worse than Obama)

I don't get this. I often see people here complaining that Trump is "racist" towards brown people. Here, he's giving the benefit of the doubt WHILE AN INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING. Can Trump do anything that would satisfy people here?

Then why even conclude that it's credible when the "investigation" hasn't ended? He's already decided in his mind that SA isn't getting more than a slap on the wrist for this.

Seems now he doesn't believe the Saudi story but doesn't care enough to do anything about it because apparently economic sanctions against SA would hurt the US more than the Saudis.

So he won't consider sanctions on them for this

But Trudeau said Trump needs to be more responsible in his duties and it's okay to impose tariffs on Canada which actually cost the US more than it hurt Canada

If SA sending terrorists to slam planes into our buildings and killing almost 3000 of our own people won't cause the government to do something, then nothing will. Politicians want those bribes. They don't give a shit about what's right and wrong.

This doesn't make sense. We support him because he is making America great again. We're finally recovering from the recession caused by Obama-era policies and the racial divide he created.

There is no hyperbole.

MBS lied DIRECTLY to Trump's face. And Trump is taking it to the face like a true porn star.
