Trump speaks with Saudi crown prince after calling off Iran strike

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

President Trump spoke with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to discuss Iranian behavior just hours after calling off a retaliatory strike against Iran at the last minute.

White House deputy press secretary Hogan Gidley said in a statement that the two leaders spoke over the phone on Friday about "the threat posed by the Iranian regime’s escalatory behavior" and "Saudi Arabia’s critical role in ensuring stability in the Middle East and in the global oil market."

Friday's call came amid escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran.

Iran shot down a U.S. Navy surveillance drone late Wednesday, with the two sides disputing where it occurred. Tehran has said the drone was flying over Iranian airspace, while American officials have been adamant the aircraft was in international airspace.

2. I'm to wonder if it's really true?

I have my doubts if he even called for a strike. I think it might be made up story to make trump appear to be doing something when in fact he's probably shitting his pants not knowing what to do when a country called his bluff. He doesn't have a clue what he's into.
