Do you see any connection between Jamal Khasoggi and the MAGAbomber?

How much does Prince MBS admire Donald Trump? We know he is close friends with Jared Kushner but what does he think of Donald Trump?

In my opinion, part of the reason that Jamal Khasoggi was killed was because Prince MBS wanted to show Donald Trump how to handle his "enemies" in the press. He thinks of himself as a friendly rival of Donald Trump, in my opinion. He believes that he and Trump, the Saudis and America, are now in charge of ruling the world.

So, when a bomb shows up at CNN, what does it prove? Nothing, in itself, but the reaction of Trump to the bombs should not comfort any American. Trump seemed to agree with the way the Saudis took care of the "journalist"?

However conspiratorial this may sound, I think there may be a grain of truth in it.

1. I intuitively thought that MBS could be behind this because

of the Cyrillic style writing of "Get her Done" and the Playboy truck mat pin up girls on the bomb. Seems it would likely be his style.

2. At minimum, the reaction of Trumpists is opportunistic and exploitive in their desire to

change the subject and fight Democrats and the media instead of talk about Jared, Trump, MBS and Saudi Arabia.

So even without a causal connection, the right wingers certainly prefer to be talking about this instead of talking about that. And perhaps they are intentionally inflammatory in their response to the bomber to keep the attention on the post-bomb back-and-forth blame game instead of letting it drift off to other subjects.
