    For those that criticise @realDonaldTrump for joining a sword dance in Saudi Arabia you may be interested to know that he was actually in very good company since Prince Charles not only danced but did it in local garb 😊pic.twitter.com/EJmwoKRCQG

        You must be very confused if you think Americans want our leaders acting like the self-proclaimed royalty of old Europe.

        Your self-proclaimed monarch murdered an American journalist by chopping him into pieces with a bone saw and dissolving him in a tub of acid. We’ll be circling back on that after #ElectionDay. Don’t for a fraction of a second think we’ve forgotten.

        First, he’s not a US citizen. There’re 100,000s of Saudis who’re US citizens & who voted today, but the slain journalist is not one of them. Second, you’re too stupid to respond to. Go play with your dog.

        He was a permanent resident of the United States of America, working for an American newspaper, rendering him under *our* protection. Go play in the sand in your irrelevant backwater, and enjoy the 20 years of oil revenue before you’re back riding camels.

        You’re tweeting hostage videos at me like they mean something. Know this: We have an election today. Tomorrow the U.S. Congress will begin re-evaluating our relationship with the mad boy prince MbS. So enjoy the next 24 hours.

        By the way, what is the meaning/significance of that dance?

        It is a war dance. Arab tribes dance before they go to war. They take pride on being brave by dancing out before engaging in a battle.

        In the UAE, it seems they usually do it with a stick which looks like a camel stick to me. It’s very elegant. I have actually criticized Trump back then for not doing the dance more seriously.pic.twitter.com/pLhm7TG801

        I'm from the south. We do it with sticks. The people of Najed where the royal family from, do it with swords.
