Just spoke to the King of Saudi Arabia who denies any knowledge of whatever may have happened to our Saudi Arabian citizen. He said that they are working closely with Turkey to find answer. I am immediately sending our Secretary of State to meet with King!

Either Trump has mistakenly referred to the Prince as the King prematurely, or he is purposely saying the King since probably the King did not have any involvement or knowledge, since his son the Prince is making the decisions now.

(14,918 posts)13. King Salman, who is in his 80s, has reportedly suffered from dementia for many years,
so he could plausibly deny knowledge of this atrocity (and just about anything else that has happened recently). I expect President Baby to look into this as sincerely and assiduously as he looked into the sexual assault charges against Justice Kavarape.

Who in the WH convinced Trump that Trump was taking a hit for his previous inaction.
This is all about Trump's image.
