Maybe some now will see the strategy in playing ball with Iran.

Maybe Obama was on to something.

And to Trumps credit...he is not really playing hardball with Iran yet.

It does seem that we have long believed in the need to kiss a lot of ass in the oil rich part of the world. Doesn't matter which party (Bill, Geo. W, Obama, Donald, etc.)

The Iranian mullahs scored some baskets during the 1980 campaign, but credit Jimmy Carter with a few assists lol

Trump seems to think we need the Saudis!

Probably paying them back for all the money laundering he allowed them to do...

Actually he pissed the Saudi's off by allowing all the waivers on Iranian oil. They feel played and are going to try and get the price of oil back up.

If they had the goods on Trump, they would leak it now to counter the bad press from the Kashoggi murder.

If I were one of the Princes designated hitmen, I would ask him the next time he orders me to kill someone if I was going to go on trial for murder and then he was going to hang me and disavow me like he might have done on this Kashoggi murder/accident.

Maybe he could get you a job at one of Trump's properties

I don't need a job - I hire people as legitimate employees and pay their matching SS and MCare taxes, unlike some people who cheat the system by illegally classifying employees as contractors, in direct contravention of the laws of these United States.

I believe people like that are assholes - what do you think?

I certainly wouldn't work for the Saudi Prince and get the death penalty for doing the Prince's dirty work..

You have to keep paper work on your EMPLOYEES don't you? Unlike most "house builders" who look the other way and screw the government out of taxes while facilitating the illegal entry of workers from South of the border.

Not sure what this has to do with the OP but if you'd like to start a thread on "house builders"...I'll gladly school you in how very little you know about the subject if this post is any indication

No matter what you call them if they do an employee's job, you must keep the paperwork and hire legitimate American citizens, and pay their employment taxes.

Lots of assholes don't do that. Those assholes don't deserve to keep their citizenship anymore than the Saudi's need to seek the death penalty for their version of James Bond.
