Kirsten Fontenrose, then the director of Gulf affairs at the National Security Council, shares the kind of cruelty that was a hallmark of the Trump regime in multiple calls with the Saudi King and Crown Prince, the instigator of the killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi in Turkey. Because Trump is always about the cruelty.
Trump...became fixated on the conclusion by U.S. officials that the Saudi-born journalist's body was hacked up with a bone saw.
"I mean, he would go back to it and back to it and back to it, trying to press them and telling them, you know, 'This will change everything, you guys. We've got to know. We're with you. We're standing behind Saudi Arabia ... but we've got to get to the bottom of this. 'Was there a bone saw? Was there a bone saw?'" Fontenrose said.
Trump turned at one point to then-secretary of state Mike Pompeo, and joked again, which drew a chuckle from the Cabinet official.
"'Have you ever had to take a bone saw into negotiations?'" Trump said, according to Fontenrose. "'No Mr. President, ha ha,' and pressing, pressing, pressing, and every time, 'No, no, no, Donald, we didn't know anything about it. We're still trying to get to the bottom of this.'

Trumpists love their Dear Leader in no small measure because of his talent for unapologetically engaging in abject cruelty.
Whether he was mocking a disabled reporter's affliction and delighting in Hillary Clinton's health travails on the 2016 campaign trail or separating migrant children with Down syndrome from their parents and ridiculing Joe Biden's son's struggle with drug addiction during his time in office — Trump supporters can't get enough of the Dear Leader triggering the libs, or really anyone with a conscience.
To his fervent supporters, Trump's callous viciousness is funny. It's the humorless politically correct scolds and loser Never Trumper conservatives who need to lighten up, they say.
