While receiving bipartisan backlash over a Tuesday statement in which he ignored the intelligence communitys assessment that Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi was murdered at the order of Saudi Arabias crown prince, President Donald Trump received what was perhaps the strongest rebuke from a sitting Democratic member of Congress on Wednesday.

Hey [Donald Trump]: being Saudi Arabias bitch is not America First, Representative Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii said on Twitter.

Rather than condemning the Middle East country for the journalists murder, the president issued an extraordinary statement filled with exclamation points that praised Saudi Arabias business ties to the U.S., bashed other Middle East countries, boasted of the administration's "America First" policy and sided with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salmans claim that, contrary to U.S. intelligence officials, he was not involved in the murder of the journalist.

King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman vigorously deny any knowledge of the planning or execution of the murder of Mr. Khashoggi, Trumps statement said. Our intelligence agencies continue to assess all information, but it could very well be that the Crown Prince had knowledge of this tragic eventmaybe he did and maybe he didnt!

Democratic and Republican lawmakers were swift to offer condemnation. Outgoing GOP Senator Bob Corker said he never thought hed see the day a White House would moonlight as a public relations firm for the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia while GOP Senator Rand Paul said he was pretty sure this statement is Saudi Arabia First, not America First. Im also pretty sure John Bolton wrote it, he added.

Even Trump-ally and Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said it was not in our national security interests to look the other way when it comes to the brutal murder of Khashoggi.

The president's statement started by saying, "America First! The world is a very dangerous place!" Trump said he believed the "crime against Jamal Khashoggi was a terrible one, and one that our country does not condone." He also mentioned the U.S. sanctions against 17 Saudis involved in the killing, an involvement that Saudi Arabia originally denied but later admitted to.

But a few sentences later, the president appeared to contradict himself.

"We may never know all of the facts surrounding the murder of Mr. Jamal Khashoggi," Trump said, appearing to ignore the continuing investigation by U.S. intelligence agencies. "In any case, our relationship is with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia."

Speaking to reporters Tuesday on the White House lawn shortly after that statement, Trump said the U.S. was "with Saudi Arabia" and "we're staying with Saudi Arabia."

"This is about 'America first.' They're paying us $400 billion-plus to purchase and invest in our country," Trump said. "I'm not going to destroy the world economy, and I'm not going to destroy the economy for our country by being foolish with Saudi Arabia."

He went on to claim that he has "no business whatsoever with Saudi Arabia." While the president may not own property there, Trump does have a long personal financial history with the Saudi government that equates to tens of millions of dollars.

Those transactions from the Saudis to Trump include a $20 million 282-foot yacht and a stake in his Plaza Hotel in New York to a billionaire Saudi Prince in 1991, the 45th floor of the Trump World Tower in 2001 for $12 million and a $270,000 payment from a Saudi public relations firm after a trip to Trumps D.C. hotel.

When it began to appear in October that Khashoggi had been murdered, 11 Senate Democrats demanded that the president divulge his past and current financial ties to Saudi Arabia.

glitteringfairy used to be funny with his deeding gimmick but now he just jumps Trump's leg to try and get attention. There's no real nuance to his "views;" he's just trying to rile people up so you're better off ignoring him.

On topic, no one is surprised that Trump is Arabia's bitch.

If Im an effort to own Trump there is more mainstream criticism of Saudi Arabia that would be great. But please spend more time talking about their much greater crimes.

The rebels used chemical weapons and nobody cares. Assad used them when the rebels needed him to use them most, which isnt suspicious at all.

People did care actually, also this idea that there was no reason for Assad to use them is totally false.

Here's an article explaining why it was in Assad's interest to use chemical weapons. He's fighting a fanatical and entrenched opponent in urban warfare.
