So the Republican frontrunner for the presidency is hosting a lucrative golf tournament funded by Saudi Arabia this weekend? Seems like a good topic of conversation. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/05/24/trump-saudis-golf-republicans/

Why aren’t we talking more about Trump’s business with the Saudis?

The Republican front-runner is earning money from and promoting the Saudi crown prince's business.

@pbump DOJ is currently investigating a previous Saudi sponsored golf tournament held at a trump property. Trump Org has received subpoenas. Apparently there's a mole who worked at Merde-a-Lago assisting in the investigation.
Trump will keep holding these tournaments as long as he is permitted to. The financial rewards and his ongoing cultivation of Saudi royals are just too great to resist.
