The Saudi dude sees what is going on in Europe. No matter how much the US tries if a county doesn't have the nuts they will be destroyed.

He means that the global economic shiate show is entirely caused by Trump's poorly conceived decisions. Trump's tariffs, ham-fisted military action, disregard for allies, and absence of clarity has caused real damage to the world. Saudi Arabia is suffering due to Trump, just as we are.

He is saying that Trump has totally blown it.

Thanks for that clarification. The timing matters.

Ok though to be clear…we can agree that if Saudi Arabia is thinking of replacing the petro-dollar… that would be a bad thing, and something to be concerned with.

Clean up Iran yourselves or STFU. So easy to say this after we destroyed Iran that was lobbing drones into the luxury bread basket.


Tucker will be doing an interview soon.

He doesn’t mean any of that because he didn’t say it.
I fricked up by not paying attention to the comments below. I shouldn’t have posted it my bad.

The quoted statement doesn't match the video or any verified reports from Prince Faisal bin Farhan's recent remarks.

In the speech (from an Arab League-related event), he actually said Saudi Arabia sets policies based on its own interests, remains open to dialogue with all partners "West and East," and seeks mutual benefits "not only with China but with America" too.

No mention of Trump, the US "era ending," or inability to protect. The claim appears to be a mistranslation or fabrication circulating on social media.

It would definitely be a bad thing and something to be very concerned with.

So y’all want to disregard the Saudi Foreign Minister’s comments as meaningless bluster.


So you want to cry about it... or celebrate his comments as a rebuke of Trump? Go ahead, TDS f@g. No one is stopping you.

Nobody is crying or whining. You’re just acting juvenile.

Point being - no American wants the Order to be re-arranged, or the petrodollar to be replaced.

We don’t want any countries in the ME to be leaning in that direction either.

Grok:
English transcript of the video (Prince Faisal bin Farhan, Saudi Foreign Minister, speaking in Arabic):

"The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia — and as far as I know, all Arab countries — do not set their policies based on the interests of others, but rather based on their own interests. We will pursue our interests, and we will continue to formulate our policies based on those interests, regardless of other viewpoints.

At the same time, we will remain open to dialogue with all our partners, both West and East, to ensure there is full understanding of what we are doing and to pursue shared benefits. These shared benefits are not only with China, but also with America and others.

We seek our interests, and we find them in the West and in the East, and wherever we find them, we will work to achieve them."

The video is a short clip (about 51 seconds) from an official event. He is seated at a podium with Saudi flags, later shown in a wider shot alongside other Arab officials in front of multiple national flags.

There is no mention of the United States "era" ending, Donald Trump, or any inability to "protect" anyone — those claims in the original post do not appear in the speech.

You could always edit your original post, delete the content and state that the information was fake propaganda.

They don’t want this. Trust me. We would give them more than they would ever want to handle.
