There won't be any bowing to their king either.

quote:

America’s first lady has not been “ordered” to dress conservatively in Saudi Arabia, the country chosen by her husband as his first official overseas destination. Along with meetings on the US president’s itinerary, there will also reportedly be time for entertainment in the lavish Arab kingdom.

While the choice of the first country to be visited by Trump as America’s 45th president has been widely discussed in the media, a question has arisen whether there is a chance to see the US president’s wife covered in a traditionally strict Muslim attire.

Women in Saudi Arabia, including foreign visitors, are typically expected to wear a floor length dress – abaya, and a head scarf. However, when asked whether the US first lady would have to dress accordingly, a Saudi Arabia official said Riyadh “usually doesn’t demand” a specific dress-code, but rather “accepts suggestions.”

“We welcome any style in clothing,” Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Minister, Adel bin Ahmed Al-Jubeir told the media on Thursday, as cited by RIA Novosti.

America’s First Lady Melania Trump will not be required to wear the hijab as Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton were forced to do.

They were outraged, not because of the whole woman thing, but lets be honest, wouldn't you rather see moochelle covered up than not?

I'm a little surprised Barack wasn't forced to wear a hijab.

They're seriously rolling out the red carpet for this visit.

Then she decided to blaze the trail for next First Lady, despite the outrage. Somehow the OP manages to make Michelle look better.

so essentially they want us to fight their war vs. Iran, so they are treating him like royalty and feed into his ego

well, they at least watch the news over there in SA... they know which buttons to press to get on his good side

They said the same for Michelle.

If he bows down before them, it's a massive "frick you" to the American people. The Saudi Royal Family is the scum of humanity, and to be quite frank, I think it's disgusting he's meeting with them as his first foreign visit. The reason I want to invest in alternative energy has first and foremost to do with not giving them another dime. I hope all we need oil for is so we don't do business with these assholes anymore.
