The United States does not have an extradition treaty with Saudi Arabia. So Trump would have to move heaven and earth to get this guy back.
But Trump should try it anyway! Most people would applaud the move. It would show the world that yes, we do value the lives of American citizens. And as an added bonus, it would embarrass Saudi Arabia.
So does Trump have the moxie to give it a go?
Side note to Mr. Trump: Don’t ask yourself “What would George W. Bush do?” Ask yourself “What would Teddy Roosevelt do?”
Trump knows enough about the Saudis that he could get him back tomorrow morning.
