WTH? Let the Saudi's defend themselves. We have enough to keep our military busy.

Unknown numbers.. Defensive purposes only.. With more cuts to the Military next fiscal year budget, 3.9 billion for his wall.

I'm still not clear when Saudi Arabia became one of our allies, that we need to defend militarily.

I'm still not clear when Saudi Arabia became one of our allies, that we need to defend militarily. When they started giving lots of money to Trump.

We have been allied with the Saudis for a long time. I used to work for OPM-SANG, which is tasked with helping to modernize the Saudi Arabian national guard. It’s about oil and Iran. This isn’t new or Trumpian.

Correction to the OP’s title... “The USA is sending military troops to protect trump’s personal financial arrangements with their buddies MBS, as well as create a diversion for trump’s corruption on his request that the Ukraine investigate his political rival.”
Trump thinks everything that the American taxpayers fund is at his personal disposal for revenge, spite, bullying, power trips, vengeance.
And no republicans are trying to reign him in. They are all corrupt.

We have always ignored the Saudi's shortcomings. We ignored their links to Al-Qaeda and other terrorist organizations. We have given them weapons that they turned around and gave to terrorist groups and the list goes on. Trump has just raised the level of support for the Saudis to a new level and is more open about it.

This isn’t new or Trumpian. I’m going to agree with this. Trump’s verbal diarrhea just makes it all so transparent. Other presidents kept it more in the shadows…
