I don't pretend to understand all the forces at play. I will say I expect the President to keep his fucking word.
From the November 21, 2019 Democratic Debate -
MITCHELL: Mr. Vice President, the CIA has concluded that the leader of Saudi Arabia directed the murder of U.S.-based journalist...
The report was supposed to have been released back in 2018. The Former Guy blocked that. Then, he did his best tom call into question the results of the report - "Maybe he did it, maybe he didn't."
Quite a bit of daylight there.
For the record, President Biden is dead fucking wrong on...
I don't recall your concern regarding The Former Guy's administration and what they did with the report.
In fact, he ran interference for MBS. "I saved his ass. I was able to get Congress to leave him alone. I was able to get them to stop."
Is this an example of "telling it like it is"?
Trump told biographer Bob Woodward of the crown prince, "I saved his ass." Woodward wrote in his book "Rage" that in January 2020, Trump also boasted that "I was able to get Congress to leave him alone. I was able to get them to stop."
