Sh-h-h... Don't tell the Trump supporters...

But Donald Trump is getting ready to sell nuclear materials to Saudi Arabia, the country that donated 17 terrorists for the attack on the WTC on 9/11.

They have no need to know that. It might make them question their loyalty to their Supreme Leader? That would not be good for their mental health. We must continue to treat them like baby mushrooms.

The Senate failed to over-ride his veto from a previous vote and the deal is now on. Someone might wish to make a list of those Republicans that voted with Donald Trump on this deal with Saudi Arabia?

It doesn't look good and it really stinks!

on edit:
(Also, it might be a good time to put in your own man as the Director of National Intelligence?)

scary, but spot on, "baby mushrooms" still growing in dark, damp cellars across America.

Trump people are meeting secretly to sell SA blueprints how to make the bomb. Can you imagine MBS with the bomb? How do I know that, I don't, it's a guess because it's all a big fucking secret, I have to assume the worst.

Maybe I'm just worried over nothing? Maybe MBS will only use his nuclear technology for peaceful purposes?

What do you think?

You know, all of these meetings that are held in secret, the meetings with Putin with no note takers are grounds for impeachment in my book.

We should have impeached the day after the Mueller report came out.

3. I think this deal was in the making before Trump became president?

I think these were maybe the negotiations opened by people like Carter Page.

And continued by people like Erik Prince in the Seychelles.

Trump and the Russian oligarchs have been negotiating for some time. There was a lot of money to be made in the Middle East. And their money has no scruples.

To exhange their souls - the Saudis for weapons and Trump for a hotel. Note that Trump is smiling because he has none to fork over, and King Salman just realized that. Or possibly, Melania's hand is somewhere to ensure his full cooperation.

5. Ask them if Saudi Arabia is a friend of Isreal or opposed.

Ask them if we should be selling "nucular" technology to a Moslem country.

Typically they think Israel can do no wrong. Expect and encourage a knee-jerk reaction and then set it in cement. Let their bigotry and racism tie themselves up in knots.

He's rolling in Saudi dough now. Until he goes to jail, that is.

As though nuclear armed, arch enemies India and Pakistan weren't enough. We're headed straight for nuclear armed Iran and Saudi. Both have close ties to terrorist organizations. What could possibly go wrong?
