For the sake of the

Nap and cac are tied for WOAT and you have the tiebreaking vote.

Who you got?

I can't choose between the lesser of two evils.

we gain nothing. it's about keeping the status quo or losing

and at this post. my view is from watching every american president since i can remember bow for the fukkin saudis. is that not the reality we live in now? you've gotta be shytting me

And what are we losing if we sanction them? You still haven't proven that.



Considering the response from congress and republican leadership, sanctions would be the status quo response.

we RISK destabilizing and paying more for gas. as opposed to taking zero risk by not putting this sanction down

if you want to pat some smug cocksucker like bob corker on the back for 'sticking it to the saudis for this murder', as he looks the other way on all the murders the american military commits, knock yourself out

And we Risk maintaining our geopolitical position by doing nothing.

Which could also lead to your gas prices increasing.

Or us being dragged into another war to reestablish our standing.

If only @the cac mamba kept this same energy when we slapped tarrifs on half the developed world for alleged national security concerns.

i do. the tariffs are a fukking disgrace and his 'trade war' is an utter failure

I think that we've reached the point to where we can say that this is the straw that broke the camel's back. This is different, this is hellafied different. This is a clear and simple example that trump sold out the USA for his pockets. With the house being in Democrat hands next year, shyt is going to be crazy and everyone is going to be gunning for his head. Let's keep that energy for 2020.

Which had led to multiple bailouts on our dime.

So the logic that risking an ally or trade partner they've given is bullshyt. And you're supporting their bullshyt.

NPR literally shutting down your whole argument and backing what @thatrapsfan was saying to you about KSA and oil production / pricing.

Even took it further that KSA is expected to benefit from sanctions we're putting on Iran.

They basically have no leverage here with regard to oil.

why do conservatives act like oil is the only source of energy on the planet?

wouldn't it make sense to maybe start investing in alternative energy instead of signing blood pacts with terror states and risking the lives of our troops over oil?

It's comical how hypocritical you trump stans are. You muthafukkas are as stupid and inconsistent as Cheetoh is:

There will be handshakes, hugs, and smiles galore. We will be expected to forget how Trump blasted the Saudi royals for being freeloaders and threatened them with an economic boycott. Speaking to the New York Times last year, Trump claimed that, without U.S. support and protection, “Saudi Arabia wouldn’t exist for very long.” The real problem, he continued, was that the Saudis are “a money machine … and yet they don’t reimburse us the way we should be reimbursed.” Asked if he would be willing to “stop buying oil from the Saudis” if they refused to pull their weight, Trump responded: “Oh yeah, sure. I would do that.”

We will be also expected to ignore the fact that Trump slammed the Saudi government for executing homosexuals and treating women “horribly.” In the third presidential debate last October, Trump attacked Hillary Clinton for taking $25 million from the Saudis, from “people that push gays off … buildings. These are people that kill women and treat women horribly and yet you take their money.”

Perhaps above all else, we will be expected to brush under the carpet the fact that, twice in a single day, Trump accused Saudi Arabia of being behind the 9/11 attacks. “Who blew up the World Trade Center?” Trump asked his pals at Fox and Friends on the morning of February 17, 2016. “It wasn’t the Iraqis, it was Saudi — take a look at Saudi Arabia, open the documents.”

Donald Trump Said Saudi Arabia Was Behind 9/11. Now He’s Going There on His First Foreign Trip.

meaningless grandstanding

i'll tell you this breh; if we hit the saudis with some hard hitting sanctions and they just sit there and take it, i'll eat my words in here. we can bookmark it and add it to the pink panther's thread :jaymelo:
