Middle East alignment to fight radical Islam - Trump
We'll see - at least we got a very pro-business deal from Saudi Arabia with Trump's recent trip and work to consolidate the Sunni response to radical Islam.
Like a lot of Trump's accomplishments, this one is not true.
Last month, President Trump visited Saudi Arabia and his administration announced that he had concluded a $110 billion arms deal with the kingdom. Only problem is that there is no deal. It’s fake news. I’ve spoken to contacts in the defense business and on the Hill, and all of them say the same thing: There is no $110 billion deal. Instead, there are a bunch of letters of interest or intent, but not contracts. Many are offers that the defense industry thinks the Saudis will be interested in someday. So far nothing has been notified to the Senate for review. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency, the arms sales wing of the Pentagon, calls them “intended sales.” None of the deals identified so far are new, all began in the Obama administration.
Word of the day: Trumpware.
