Well let's see how the Dems twist this as a bad thing since Trump advised Mnuchin not to go.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said Thursday he has decided against attending a conference in Saudi Arabia this month, amid the uproar over the the presumed death of activist Jamal Khashoggi.
“Just met with @realDonaldTrump and @SecPompeo and we have decided, I will not be participating in the Future Investment Initiative summit in Saudi Arabia,” Mnuchin tweeted.
Mnuchin has been facing calls to cancel his plans to attend after Khashoggi vanished two weeks ago during a visit to the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul. Turkish officials allege Khashoggi was killed and dismembered inside the consulate.
The Future Investment Initiative summit is scheduled for Oct. 23-25 in Riyadh. A number of high-profile people – including leaders from the World Bank, Google and Uber – have also announced plans to drop out.

it's great that our strategic interests must be guided by liberal lunatic emotion, uproar and outrage.

Will be interesting to see how much more damage this will do. They really hoped it would've been brushed under the rug......nope

No twisting here. This is a good thing and a no-brainer.
I'm glad Trump is taking this seriously.

That's a good way to send a message of disapproval without getting involved in their internal affairs.

No need to twist anything. I don’t like Trump but he made a good decision here if he advised Mnuchin to stay home.

As anti Trump as the left is, we'll see. No doubt they will find something he isn't doing right.
