The news is that Donald Trump just scored a huge WIN. Suck on that.
President Donald J. Trump Secures Historic $1.2 Trillion Economic Commitment in Qatar
- Thread starter ziggy
- Start date
This story is from a very questionable source, and also Crazy Trump is well known for not telling the truth and exaggerating.

You're just regurgitating the exact response your thought-masters mandated. Foolish. The signing was televised. The world watched it. Qatar made the largest purchase of jets Boeing has ever had, and all purchased so that Qatar would be postured to assist the US in the region.
HUGE win for Trump. HUGE embarrassment for Democrats that they couldn't accomplish the same thing.
I dont know this, I have not seen what the guaranteed minimum purchase is.....the max number is irrelevant.

US President Trump's trip to the Middle East was in service of the "deep state," not Americans
President Trump helped cut deals for what is often referred for as the "deep state," massive unelected corporate-financier interests like Boeing, Cisco, Open Ai, and Blackrock who drive the very foreign and domestic policies crushing Americans at home and causing instability, death, and destruction abroad;
These deals will make billions for Wall Street and further entrench the deep state, not "fight against it" - it also further entrenches US primacy over the Middle East and all the chaos the US uses to divide and control it;
Nations need large businesses and industries, but ones that serve the interests of a nation, not hijack them - "MAGA" is simply another means of selling servitude to Wall Street to the average American;

Of course not. They only want their #TangerineTyrant to "make America great again." Doesn't count when -- as always -- a (D) does it without fanfare, bloviating, bragging, and bullshit.
So, are we to believe Qatar would not have purchased those planes if anyone else were President?

Trump ripping Hillary for taking money from a country that doesn't share our beliefs? You can't see how that is related to recent events related to.... let's see......Qatar and a jet?

First, you didn't write these words in your previous post, so this is the first time you are asking.
Second, Qatar acceded to the US' beliefs and has vowed to support the US.
Third, Boeing gets the money, not Trump. Don't you see the difference?

Qatar follows Sharia Law, which means they are far from being in line with our beliefs related to human rights.
Money laundering, to whatever degree it's happening, doesn't change anything.

There is no country that has the United States' legal system and laws. You should come right out and specify your position as stupidly asserting that no US company should ever do business with any other country. Either that or admit that you posted before thinking the matter through.
There is no money laundering. Is this your signal that you are forfeiting again?

Doing business with and islamist country is a debatable decision. Accepting gifts or donations from is the islamist countries should be viewed, at least by rational people, as unacceptable when done by federal employees.

Nope. That decision is made entirely by the President, based on the best interests of the United States. Obviously Trump scored a huge win in that area. I have no idea what you are babbling about.
Wait, are you once again presuming to be a better diplomat and negotiator than Trump? Are you pretending to "second guess" our President while you ask JPP to play make-believe that you are the definitive authority on international relations?
Great news! It's specifically outlawed in the Constitution. I hope that puts your mind at ease. If you ever had any doubts that the Biden and Obama administrations were completely corrupt and illegal, along with Hillary Clinton's tenure as Secretary of State, you now have solid ammunition to make your case.
US Constitution: Article I, Section 9
No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.
Claims that the $1.2 trillion claim does not pass the smell test:

No, even the sovereign wealth fund angle makes no sense. The most the UAE sovereign wealth fund has ever deployed in a year is $29 billion , and they have $1.7 trillion in total, most of it already invested.It's delusional to think they'd liquidate 82% of their assets, redirect it and essentially go all-in, with almost everything they own, on Donald Trump's America. Especially given the current context (remember what happened to Russia's assets?)No responsible leadership would ever consider liquidating decades of carefully diversified investments to make what would amount to the largest and riskiest gamble in history.
