He was a businessman, not a politician. No harm in doing business with them at that time.
You didn't mind that the other side took money from the Russians....
fake outrage
This is your best defense of the criminal?
That others have ALSO taken bribes?
This was during his campaign - he admits to taking millions from the Saudis. Today he said the opposite.
Lied to your face - but you cult members will not believe your lying eyes. Only believe in dear leader.

You cannot separate your - whataboutism - because you need to defend this criminal.
I don't care about any other politician - jail them all if they committed crimes - party be damned.
You cannot say the same. You are tied to this criminal and are complicit. You sell out your country at the first cult leader that brainwashed you.
You can only try to use your preferred defense - whataboutism.
No matter how many others did it - it does not excuse what the current fraud president is doing now.
Oh - and btw - he could have denounced his business interests once he became president - he didn't. He could have released his taxes - he didn't.
So - your excuse for him being a businessman - does not fly anymore.
Im all for Democrats going after Trump for Saudi
But this will be just a lukewarm attempt as Saudi money fills Democratic coffers as much as Trumps and his people
Face saving fake attempt by demonrats tbqh
(See ClintonFoundation donations by Emirati/Saudi killers)
Matter fact calling it nowdemocrats will do very little on this topic
Wow @ chalking up the murder of this journalist to "It may or may not have been something Saudi brass knew about, but the world is a dangerous place" - Combined with his verbal attack on his own critics in the media, basically the message that's being sent is that if you report news that is disparaging then you run the risk of being murdered for it.
Trump is dismissing his own intelligence's conclusion, yet if they came to him after catching wind of a plot to assassinate him or a member of his family he would of course believe every word they said.
Our world is ed.
Or if the intelligence community gave him a report of Hillary wrongdoing.
Think he'd believe them?
"I made $Ms off the Saudis, so I can't possibly put the USA's diplomacy, and WTF are ethics, justice anyway?, ahead of my own wealth"
iow, Trash is a cheap , for sale to anybody, no questions asked.
This is so high above the whole Hillary, US political race stuff though, that's a topic all on it's own..
Trump launched 60 something cruise missiles into Syria and used his "morals" and "religious compass" to make the call based on what he said. But here, combined with his impromptu interviews and the one Pompeo later echoed at his news conference, he's completely abandoned that sense of morality and flat out admitted that it's because it's best for business. I'm not asking for a military strike on the Saudi's of course, but god damn, this is pretty ed up.
*Edit - I just read that Khasshoggi was a resident but not a citizen, so it does lessen the severity somewhat. Taking place on Turkish soil is also to be considered. But either way, saying that "best for business" makes us look like the Saudi's . That's been his thing.. Bully a Justin Trudeau and crush his hand, but defer to the "gangsters" of the world stage. It's becoming really clear who he looks up to.

True. This is the message he himself put out there.. and now when CNN grills him on his comments/handling he'll just get angry and defensive and kick them out.
He seriously needs an advisor with him every time he goes on record![]()
we should all be grateful to DJY for cutting through the bull .
Isn't a few pennies saved at the pump worth it?

We have had a relationship of economic and military convenience with this group for a while, Even when they spread their Whabbi extremism. But this is clearly pumping it up a notch. This is going further than we need a counter to Iran excuse.
Really - that's interesting - almost mystical
Chris is obsessed with celebrities.
*whooosh
Considering the source, I'll conclude it makes no sense and you couldn't explain it anyway.
*whooosh
Yep, Chris fails again.
