Tweet: Did Erdogan threaten to blackmail tRump over his invovement in Khashoggi's murder?

Erdogan called to tell you if you didn’t bail on the Kurds and back away from Syria he would spill all the evidence about Khashoggi’s killing to the world press. This would implicate directly Kushner and his friend the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia in the murder.

But in the present political climate, is it really that far-fetched? We have a president who can be rolled by third-rate talk show hosts and remainder-box authors. One who believes everything he hears from certain quarters, and doesn't have the critical thinking skills to know when he's being manipulated.

And speaking of conspiracy theories, what would the Nitwit Brigade make of that photo of Trump laying hands on the Great Orb of Muslim Muslimicity if it was Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama? These are the genius dudes who created a child sex ring in the non-existing basement of a pizza joint, persuasive enough to send one of their ranks to said pizza joint and shoot it up.
