As Twitchy told you yesterday, Donald Trump’s statement on Saudi Arabia and Jamal Khashoggi raised plenty of eyebrows. And understandably so, as it painted the failure to take a hard line on the Saudis as “America First.”
Former U.N. Ambassador Samantha Power took Trump to task for that statement, despite her own abominable record on dealing with hostile foreign powers. But if you thought Power was speaking out of turn, check out who’s calling Trump out today:
Hey @realdonaldtrump: being Saudi Arabia’s bitch is not “America First.”
