Trump And Saudi Crown Prince Have Secret Talks




As reported in the New York f-ing Times, the Malignant Loser recently has held secret talks with the murderous Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin "Bone Saw" Salman. The corrupt potentate has been an adversary of the Biden Administration, notably cutting oil production and raising prices in the weeks before the 2022 mid-term Congressional elections to hurt Dems' chances. As a parting gift to the Malignant Loser's son-in-law Jared Kushner, the Crown Prince gave $2 billion to his investment fund as a way of hedging his bets that the Malignant Loser would return to office. From the Times report:

"It was unclear what the two men discussed and whether it was their only conversation since Mr. Trump’s departure from the White House. Neither representatives for Mr. Trump nor an official of the Saudi government responded to requests for comment.

But news of their discussion comes at a time when the Biden administration is engaged in delicate negotiations with the Saudis aimed at establishing a lasting peace in the Middle East, building on diplomatic ties between Israel and a number of Arab states forged through the work of the Trump administration.

If President Biden manages to clinch a trilateral megadeal — which would probably include a Saudi-Israeli peace agreement, an Israeli commitment to a two-state solution, a U.S.-Saudi defense treaty and U.S.-Saudi understandings on a civilian nuclear program in Saudi Arabia — he will need support from two-thirds of senators to ratify the U.S.-Saudi treaty. Mr. Trump, as the presumptive Republican nominee in firm command of his party, could potentially either block any deal or greenlight it for congressional Republicans."  (our emphasis)

If one thinks that the Malignant Loser would "greenlight" any deal that would help President Biden, we have dog doo wrapped in the paper's front page for your lunch. It's more likely that the Malignant Loser both asked the Saudis to drag their feet on a deal, and to part with some sweet petrodollars to line his pockets with, or to contribute to his legal defense fund. 

Along with war criminal Vladimir Putin, Bone Saw is looking for another Trump regime that would look favorably on his human rights crackdown, high oil prices, and perhaps even pursuit of nuclear weapons.
