certain the saudis know and the rest of the world knows this america first foreign policy is not a blank check when it comes to violations of human rights. we cannot let allies act like china and russia. we can't let allies start killing people on foreign soil. that is not going to fly. so i think pompeo's message to the president should be that he needs to operate from a position of strength and demand answers and demand answers quickly. i think that it would go over very well for president trump if he let the saudis know if they don't come up with answers and if they are not for tthright an don't turnover recordings that he is willing to back the international investigation. >> a couple of interesting dichotomies. you elected a bully to push around other world leaders who seem to be played by mbs.
