This had to happen sooner or later. I have no words. I kind of think it already happened. With Trump's stated support for violence against members of the media, with his constant denigration of reporters and framing them as the enemy of the people we had the murder of Jamal Kashoggi. (See that thread where I posit that MBS knew Trump wouldn't do a thing about his murder).

I really don't think the murder of Kashoggi and this idiot attempting this defense are even in the same universe, Mark.
I agree the Saudi's were emboldened because they didn't think Trump would do anything, but I don't think Trump's anti-press rhetoric had anything to do with it.
I see Kashoggi's murder more akin to Syria walking right across Obama's red line.
