      I'm old enough to remember when the US defended its alliances with appalling dictatorships on the grounds of regional security needs and/or the larger fight against a greater evil, not on the grounds of profitable arms sales.

      This might be one case where the argument "Trump is more honest" is true.

          Can simple personal economic interest be ruled out, though? If that's what's driving it then defending it on the basis of other Americans making money is hardly more honest than previous status quo (indeed, it would be less honest as previously it was admitted to be about oil).

          Here thinks he's being clever when what's he's being is dishonest. trump/kushner personal financial ties & this must be investigated:https://twitter.com/senblumenthal/status/1052885265252007937 …

          President Trump’s vigorous defense of the Saudi government in the face of the murder of Jamal Khashoggi raises questions about the Saudis’ role in helping Trump win the election.

          You've got to be kidding - you must know trump is not only lying about the arms sale (considerably less than he's saying), he's also lying about his & kushner's personal financial interests. Come on - be better.

          Also, this - the potential (likely) Saudi role in installing trump in the White House.https://twitter.com/senblumenthal/status/1052885265252007937 …
