Speaking outside White House, Trump again goes out of his way to mention Khashoggi's immigration status

"I just spoke w/king of Saudi Arabia, who denies any knowledge of what took place with regard to, as he said, his Saudi Arabia citizen...these might have been rogue killers"

1. Yeah, rogue killers with diplomatic passports on government jets

sent by the crown prince on a special mission

[lagomorph777]

2. And operating inside the consulate.

Right.

[dalton99a]

6. Important point

[YessirAtsaFact]

15. The Saudi consulate really needs to step up their security

They shouldn’t have allowed those rogue killers inside

[lagomorph777]

20. Yeah.

They slipped in, committed a gruesome crime, and slipped out without anybody seeing them.

5. And this was done after Kushner gave tapes of him to MSB.

Kusher is an accessory to murder, that is one of many reasons drumpf is lying about this. He knows exactly who did it and why and that he's 100% complicit and totally approved of the murder of someone who worked for the WaPo. Bet your bottom $$ he's threatened Turkey with severe retaliation if they release the tapes to the public, and that he hasn't requested tapes for us because he doesn't want it confirmed to anyone in USA not already part of the plot that he and his sil are accessories to murder as payback for bribes and loans.

18. Doesn't that start

sliding down the slope into the pit of international espionage? If so, and if true, that pit is filling up with cheato's pals real fast.

3. Some People Say it was Rouge Killers-Who Knows?

[Little Star]

11. If you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you.

[lagomorph777]

21. Not eyeshadow killers though, so Huckster-bee Sanders is safe.

[JHan]

4. Like the 400 lb dude who hacked the DNC and Podesta right?

[Arkansas Granny]

13. Just what I was thinking.

[Wounded Bear]

16. Someone should have answered that one...

"The only 400 pound person involved is YOU, Mr Trump."

[lagomorph777]

22. Same guy! Got off his bed, flew to Turkey, and snuck into the consulate.

Very crafty dude.

[unblock]

7. it's the oj simpson defense. he's on the hunt for the "real killers".

[YessirAtsaFact]

17. And like OJ, he'll search every golf course in The world

[bdamomma]

8. another outright lie

he is saying. Of course he would side with the Saudis, he's getting big time money from them, Jared is not clean in this either.

[unblock]

9. notice the othering of khashoggi, calling him a saudi citizen rather than a u.s. permanent resident.

[Initech]

10. Except that he was tortured and murdered in front of the consulate!!!!

This was an act of war plain and simple. But Trump is more concerned with that fucking weapons deal than facts.

[Roland99]

12. Yeah. Some random rogue killers managed to infiltrate

the Saudi consulate

[erpowers]

14. Saudi Arabia's Puppet

So, not only is he Russia's puppet he is also Saudi Arabia's puppet. This seems like an example of why you should not elect someone with business ties to two rogue regimes to be President of your country.

19. Oh, so now it's no longer "he walked out and we don't know what happened to him?"

Now, it's "rogue elements" with proper documents to gain them entry to a Saudi Consulate. The Consulate, of course, just happened to have on hand the equipment to take apart a body to the point that what's left of it can be transported out of the consulate without anyone noticing. Right?

That's not a consulate they're describing, it's a sieve.

I hate to sound like a homicide cop, but I think the Saudis should come clean about what they did. They'll all feel much better having told the truth, which will come out anyway, sooner or later. The Turks already have the audio. Maybe they have the video, too, and just don't want the Saudis to know to what extent they have wired their facility. (Hey, for all I know, the CIA has a video, too, and doesn't dare let on).

23. Why doesn't it worry FOX fanboys that the president is making excuses for other country's

Trump really is everything the RW blamed Obama of being. Here Trump makes excuses for foreign powers. Why? because they bribe him and his family with $$$.

[Achilleaze]

24. Liars Vs. Liars. republicans got it all covered

sad
