A new low, even for #Trump :Jamal #Khashoggi was dismembered in a #Saudi consulate. The president says ‘things happen’ ... Critics of the ( Saudi) regime had roundly condemned the visit. But what was on display at the #WhiteHouse was worse than could have been imagined. Not only did Trump fete Prince Mohammed but he effectively rewrote history – and then blamed the victim. Prince Mohammed, Trump asserted when asked, knew nothing about the killing – in direct contradiction to what his country’s own intelligence services concluded four years ago. Moreover, Trump said: “A lot of people didn’t like that gentleman that you’re talking about, whether you like him or didn’t like him, things happen.”
Disgusting. #Politics #USPoli
