Trump, Pompeo, and Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman continue to blame Iran for the drone attacks on Saudi Arabia’s oil refineries, although Yemen has admitted it was their decision, and Iran denies any involvement.

Sunday evening Trump placed American forces under the control of bin Salman.

Never forget, George W. Bush and Dick Cheney attacked Iraq under false pretenses. Will American forces once again go to war with the wrong nation? And yes, you read correctly. In an act of pure treason, Trump is willing to turn over America’s armed forces to an enemy of our nation. Why? To pay the royal family back for bailing him our of a very probable bankruptcy in 1995.

I claimed that Saudi Arabia is our enemy. Why did I do that? We must never forget that 15 of the 19 terrorists who attacked America on September 11, 2001 were Saudi nationals, and Osama bin Laden was a member of the royal family.

Trump declared that our military would take orders from bin Salman who would decide who we would attack and how. Does anyone believe that Trump should not be impeached? He is taking orders from Vladimir Putin and surrendering our military to bin Salman. I wonder how our generals and admirals feel about taking orders from the leader of one of our enemies?

Trump tweeted that the Saudi oil supply was attacked, and that “we know the culprit” and “are locked and loaded,” awaiting verification. How is America to get that verification? According to Trump, he is “waiting to hear from the kingdom as to who they believe is the cause of this attack, and under what terms we would proceed.”

Once again Trump is disrespecting and ignoring our security agencies. He is willing to accept the word of our enemies and discount the CIA, NSA and the DIA. Who the hell does he think he is? I can answer my own question. He believes that he is King Donald.

I have an idea. Moscow Mitch McConnell would refuse to try Trump in the senate if he is impeached. Maybe Trump should be removed by a military coup. I can’t believe that they will allow a draft dodger and a traitor to surrender to a country which has proven that they share the rest of the Arab world and believe in the chant, “death to America.”

We deserve an American president. Trump must be punished for both his acts of treason, and for his leadership of white supremacy in America.

“The truth lives here.”
