I really don’t see the Saudis as being upset with Brandon. They’re back to their market manipulating ways due to high oil prices and instability of reserves here in the US. Trump had managed our oil energy policy well, and the Saudis did not like that.

Trump would never make this mistake.

Name a world leader with respect to whom he harbored any visible animosity.

Brandon is practically flatlining mentally at this point.

Yup, because in his case the two are so intertwined that they have become one, inseparable.

I dunno. We were doing fine with Saudi under President Trump. We were on the way to bringing them into the Abraham Accords. And we didn’t need to beg them for oil.

Now—under biden—things have gone from bad to worse!!!! Horrors!!!!

Must say I really respect these views of MBS, who is not my favorite person at all.

Biden is a complete left wing idiot.

Remember when they told you Trump was an Islamophobe? The Saudis loved Trump.

So true. Back in mid 68 I commanded a company of 3 US SF NCO’s and 120 plus Montagnards. These yards were no different than any Saudi except for their customs. They will accept you if you earn their respect. Biden has made no effort to learn the customs of leaders from other countries.
