Trump reveals Saudis paid $450bn for his 2017 visit and he’d go again for $500bn
US President Donald Trump has revealed that he could make Saudi Arabia the destination for his first foreign trip during his new term – but only if Riyadh agrees to purchase American products worth up to $500 billion. He revealed that a similar arrangement was agreed for his controversial 2017 visit.
Wow. Just advertising he’s for sale, right out in the open like that. So glad there is a human with such moral integrity in our highest office. What a piece of shit.
Not that I'm defending Trump, but you understand that the $450b in 2017 didn't go to Trump, right? Because that would make Trump the richest man in the world, and he's certainly not that.
By saying “as president I will only come to your country if you buy $x from my country” he is effectively selling the office of the presidency. He isn’t speaking on a book tour, he’s not a college lecturer. He is the fucking president of the United States. And to my knowledge, no other president has extorted a country like this.
His kids get it instead
Well it sure as shit didn't go to anything that actually helped people.
I wonder if Jared's $2 billion from the saudis stems from this though... Plus the saudis paying Trump to use his golf courses for their golf league. Not all of it had to go to him, but there's a lot of "American products" that could benefit him if purchased.
Lol yeah... This is the very first time in his life that he's done something to help other people without any benefit to himself. Sure thing.
