Trump is literally putting Saudi Arabia first and sending a clear message to brutal regimes around the world—there will be zero consequences for violating human rights, murdering journalists, murdering your political rivals, and more.
Publisher Fred Ryan and Washington Post CEO, had some very strong words for Trump coddling murderers.
The wannabe dictator treats what happened to Khashoggi as perfectly normal, with a smarmy “what can you do about it?” attitude. This is a total disgrace.
Senator Jack Reed sums up the utter failure that is Trump and his foreign policy.
This is about the “president” putting his family business first, by not holding those accountable for the premeditated murder of Jamal Khashoggi. With this response, Trump emboldens autocrats, dictators and despots around the world.
As all this unfolds, we must never forget the deafening silence coming from the Republican Party, as once again they enable Trump every step of the way. They are complicit.
