He's changed his tune now as he waits to "hear from the Kingdom" regarding a response to the attack on Saudi oil facilities.
Donald Trump insisted that Saudi Arabia “fight their own wars” — or “pay us an absolute fortune to protect them.” But that was in 2014, when Barack Obama was president. On Sunday he said the U.S. is “locked and loaded,” waiting to “hear from the Kingdom” about who was responsible for the attack Saturday on Saudi oil facilities.
Saudi Arabia should fight their own wars, which they won't, or pay us an absolute fortune to protect them and their great wealth-$ trillion!Saudi Arabia oil supply was attacked. There is reason to believe that we know the culprit, are locked and loaded depending on verification, but are waiting to hear from the Kingdom as to who they believe was the cause of this attack, and under what terms we would proceed!Trump’s supporters are backing his bristling war readiness, with Sen.
Sen. Mitt Romney said U.S. military action on behalf of the Saudis against Iran would be “a grave mistake.” And Sen. Brian Schatz tweeted that there is “no imminent threat and the U.S. military is not authorized to retaliate on behalf of another country.” Trump appeared to back off Monday from his locked-and-loaded pose. “Do I want war?” he said to reporters in the Oval Office. “I don’t want war with anybody.” But the president added: “We’re prepared more than anybody.” He also said that the Saudis are “going to have a lot of involvement in this if we decide to do something ... that includes payment.”
