Selling weapons to a murderous regime that has funded terrorism within the United States? Maybe he should be a bit more discerning than that.

I'm honestly surprised you're ok with this, Alde... Bah! What am I saying? No I'm not.

I'm sure people say the same thing about the United States. Haven't you ever heard of us being called The Great Satan, and similar things? Ever heard the accusation that we conquer other countries for their oil (even though we never end up with it, and now drill for our own)?

You're not serious. I don't believe you're honestly equating the moral standing of the United States of America to that of Saudi freaking Arabia.

I mean, have you any self-respect, man? Is 'trolling da libs' that high of a priority for you that you undercut your own nation like you just did? This presidency has completely degraded your moral conscience if you honestly believe what you just typed out.

For the record, I don't believe you do.

You might want to try re-reading my post. I thought it was clear that I was telling you what people have said. That's why my sentences began with words like, "I'm sure people say", and "Haven't you ever heard"?

It was quite clear that you're equating the very real and verified facts about Saudi Arabia and their ties to worldwide terrorism to criticisms of the United States in a painfully obvious effort to elevate the moral standing of a terrorist sponsoring Islamic theocracy that is backed by our president.

I was giving you the benefit of the doubt in saying you're not serious in saying that but your doubling down leaves me wondering.

You do not have to look to outer space to find a black hole. A good example is our Congress. Things enter and disappear

Iran is acting out and with the support of China would gladly annihilate America.

We need to supply other countries willing to fight on the ground so that we can supply air support! America has fought too many wars losing American life.

.Sell them guns and let them take control of their own safety.

Only idiots or dems would disagree.

Why do we need to do anything here? Let these Muslims have their spat between themselves and leave American weapons, money and lives out of it.
I really don't get how the 'America first' crowd could ever get behind this.

Only idiots or dems would disagree.
Selling weapons to terrorists has worked out so well for us in the past! Only an idiot would think that's a bad idea. Or a dem.

Iran will destroy America first chance it gets.

Saudis will help keep that from happening
.I say ... More power to them!
Back in reality, the Saudis have *literally funded a terrorist attack on American soil* while the Iranians are still feeling the effects of our literal coup we orchestrated on their duly elected government.

Personally, I don't trust any of these people or the ones sticking up for them. The 3000 lives lost, two endless wars fought, millions of displaced civilians and trillions spent dealing with them has sorta left a bad taste in my mouth.

You know how it is with these people:

Donald can do no wrong.
Donald likes the Saudis,
therefore the Saudis can do no wrong.

You say the "Saudis will help keep that from happening..."

I ask: why would they do that?

Oh my, a country the size of Alaska is going to annihilate the USA?

Is it difficult living in fear all of the time?

Yes, the size of the country determines how dangerous it is, that is why Canada the second largest threat to world peace and must be subdued.

I have a “don’t debate Poe-ple” policy. Sorry.
(If this is a serious query, please so indicate).

What you refer to as "doubling down" (Nice try!) was me trying to explain to you what I said. I guess I should have known that you already had your mind made up to condemn me no matter what I said.

They spent $8,000,000,000 on this purchase. It helps American companies and workers and brings more money into our economy. If it will also help us in the middle east if another confrontation happens there, then so much the better.

Cuba is quite a bit smaller than Alaska or Iran, and yet we were very close to having nuclear war because of the nuclear missiles that Russians had there. But it was a democrat president who dealt with it and was not labeled as a fearmonger for doing so.
