Trump’s remarks reflect apparent shifting strategies and views in the White House over its response and possible punishments toward one of its key Middle East allies.

As he boarded a flight to Montana for a political rally, Trump was asked by a journalist if he believed Khashoggi was dead.

“It certainly looks that way to me,” he said. “It’s very sad.”

He added that Saudi Arabia could face a “very severe” U.S. response depending on the results of the self-run investigation by the kingdom into the disappearance of Khashoggi, a Saudi citizen and Washington Post contributing columnist.

Saudi Arabia has been a horrible country doing horrible things and fake friends of ours for a long time, this isn't new.

This over the top faux outrage over it in the media is new however.

Where DO the dems stand in this? Are they supporting the Muslims here or opposed to them? It is all confusing.

Smart move to mollify the media. Then, just let the story die.

He doesn't, he's just sandbagging against the usual suspects that wants to blow up his strategy against Iran by driving a wedge in the Saudi-US relationship.

Washington Post

No doubt the Bezos-Post will stay neutral on this story concerning its own OBL/Muslim Brotherhood connected reporter.

How can anybody know for sure what really happened?

You can't, because if the turkeys wanted to create a false flag, and they actually have footage of the guy walking out of the Saudi embassy, They would be the only ones who have it, and they would destroy it.

The only thing which can be deduced from your post is that you are a supporter of the Palestinians who were an ally of the Nazis in WW2 and you agree with Hitler's "Final Solution" to the "Jewish problem".
