Joe Biden earned major points during his campaign for calling out Saudi Arabia for its laundry list of abuses at home and abroad. So, @mehdirhasan asks, how can the now-president justify visiting the kingdom he once called a “pariah”?

.@mehdirhasan asks of President Biden's meeting with Saudi leaders: "Whatever we're getting form this meeting, maybe, maybe a slight fall in gas prices, is it really worth selling out the family of Jamal Khashoggi, the people of Yemen, and our own moral authority and values?"

One criminal called another criminal. And now they are friends again. The US can't be trusted. No president of the US was trustworthy. All of them lie to the nation and once they win the elections they would do the total opposite thing.

I dare you to talk the same way about Iran, I agree with what you say about the Saudi monarchy,but, let’s be honest you are also very bias sometimes. You give off that feel that you should someday work for PRESS TV.

Biden needs oil prices down. The Saudis can help with that. That does not make the Saudis any less a pariah, it just makes sense. It’s not as if Hunter recvd 2b for a hedge fund he has no business running. Keep your Eye on the prize.

Simple the Dems are desperate because they understand how truly incompetent Biden is. They call him Sleepy Joe for a reason.
