There go our last three allies. Sayonara, folks.

(I wonder what happens to jared's millions now... lol!)

Catherine Beck's avatar

Small correction: BILLIONS

kdsherpa's avatar

Apparently he "manages" $5 B, but "only" makes a few million a year. (Just learned that.)

Robot Bender's avatar

"Only?" I'd love to earn "only" a few million dollars a year.

kdsherpa's avatar

Joking! For a drumpf minion, it's chump cash.

robby robinson's avatar

So that means Ivanka gets 2 pair of Louboutins instead of 30? 👠👠😭

kdsherpa's avatar

Yeah, like the little girls who only get 2 dolls for Christmas instead of 30.

Delia Wozniak's avatar

Billions, not millions!

The Saudi $55 billion dollars leveraged buyout of Electronic Arts gave Jared $2.75 billion to grease the wheels z!

Let’s see what happens next!

Ken Smith's avatar

Jared does know what MBS is capable of directing......just saying...!

Donna's avatar

No one connected to IT or ITS, is capable of thinking beyond the $$$$ they see. They are so fvking stupid, and the ENTIRE World knows it! I'm just waiting for these tRumps to find out, just what's coming for them...

Randy Stokes's avatar

You mean Billion$

robby robinson's avatar

I never understood why someone with that much money cant get his eyebrows right 🤔

Catt woman's avatar

Is it too late for the

Catt woman's avatar

This old woman proved the iPad is smarter than she is. Guess I hit the wrong button!

Lalla Ward's avatar

Yes indeed, re Jared’s millions (billions?)

L.D.Michaels's avatar

Is this man a moron, or what?

Claire Read, PhD's avatar

A demented one. And scary.

Nancy Reike's avatar

yeah,with senile dementia too

Donna's avatar

Frontal lobe dementia, which is much worse, and more dangerous. Not to mention, malignant narcissism, pedophilia, rapist, draft dogging...well as you know, the list goes on.

Nancy Reike's avatar

:) indeed it does

Lalla Ward's avatar

Do you really have to ask???!!!

Whineboy's avatar

Unfortunately he is our moron (and calling him a moron is an insult to ordinary morons).

Tung no's avatar

Yes and also a narcissist. He cares nothing for what happens to his followers.

John Michael's avatar

Great reporting Dean. As always, something the rest of the world is ignoring or shoving under the carpet. Zelenskyy knows how to dance, good for him, honestly. It’s good time he is seen as a leader with something to offer. Now, MBS, mmmmm…..I wouldn’t want to be the guy to fuck with him. People disappear when he gets pissed and that sure sounded like something he won’t forget. Oh Shitler, you are such a fool! 🤮

Punkette's avatar

My hat is off to Zelenskyy. He’s a brilliant strategist and negotiator. Well played, sir! Ukraine doesn’t need the mango monster anymore and that makes me giddy. Revenge is sweet! Thanks, Dean, for this eye-opening analysis.

Martha's avatar

Yup. Jared could end up in a suitcase at the Riyadh International Airport lost luggage warehouse.

Niki~🚫 Hope 🚫💲⏰💣🇨🇱's avatar

Poof, I wish MBS would make 🍊🤡🎃👹💩🦨 diaper donnie disappear!

Lalla Ward's avatar

Isn’t this seriously one of the most staggering stories so far this week - totally amazing. Where does it leave Jared Kushner, I wonder? And could someone please let King Charles know before he hobnobs with Trump at the end of this month, or whenever it is.

Ken Smith's avatar

The Kings intention to visit is so disgusting..!

Lalla Ward's avatar

Totally agree. That’s kings for you.

Matthew Marshall's avatar

He doesn't really have a choice. Blame the British government that has put him in this position instead. Most Brits would prefer that he didn't go, but generally understand that protocol demands it. On the other hand, if Trumpstein misbehaves during the visit it will make it easier for the Brits to put a much greater distance between UK and USA.

Pamela Ewing's avatar

Most staggering story I have come across but of course not mentioned on American television🤨

Lalla Ward's avatar

I honestly had to check the date to be sure it wasn’t an April Fool joke.

chev_chelios's avatar

here is a despicable excuse for a human being that has, without a doubt, serious mental problems... that was elected by 49.9% of the country and given the keys to power.....this is beyond fu*king belief.....

.....tRUMP proves each and every time he opens his mouth or posts on his broken down Truth Social site....that he's completely insane.....

Noel Wright's avatar

Is it time to invoke the 25th Amendment yet?

kdsherpa's avatar

WAAYYYYYY past time.

Mary Kellogg's avatar

chev_chelios: please don't give T a larger number than he got. 1/3 of the voters didn't turn out. He got about half of the 2/3 of the votes - or slightly more than 1/3 of the registered voters' votes. Nowhere near as impressive...

chev_chelios's avatar

no...I'm not giving him a larger number...49.9 % is the percentage of the vote he received from everyone that did vote....that number doesn't reflect the amount of people that could, but didn't vote...tRUMP won the election but without a majority or a mandate of the people...

Noel Wright's avatar

You’re exactly right! He got a plurality; certainly far short of a landslide! Why can’t his supporters get something so very simple and, basically?

Noel Wright's avatar

Perhaps: do we have any way of doing a national “no confidence” vote in the Donald J. Humpty Trumpty Administration? Apparently, not.

PJ Schuster's avatar

Oh, we absolutely can!! At least one of the latest polls was of regular people, not confined to only those registered to vote. The percentage of those who approved of T’s job performance was 33%.

I’m hoping that with this stupid war continuing that number will fall below 30.

Mary Kellogg's avatar

I think his people would rather word his results as they do because it seems more impressive.

John Kendrick's avatar

Elect a convict, and you get gangster government.

Jay Jay Eh's avatar

Only +1.6% of the voters in America who got off their asses & voted that day!

— not -1/2 of ‘the country’. 1/3 of voters stayed home.

chev_chelios's avatar

again...that 49.9 % reflects the number of [all] the people that DID vote for tRUMP....that number doesn't reflect the entire country and those eligible voters that did not vote ....guess I'll say it again....tRUMP received 49.9 % of the vote of everyone that did vote in the election...that is a fact....not hard to understand...

Dana Devalera's avatar

Unfortunately he was not elected by 49.9 percent of the country. That would make him legitimate. He was elected by 49% of actual voters. A large percent of adults did not vote and votes were stolen by Musk and disappearing ballots. Big difference.

chev_chelios's avatar

you are misunderstanding my comment....my original statement, tRUMP was elected by 49.9 % of the country, was a reference to the total number of people that actually voted and means he won without a majority or mandate by the American people.....that should have obvious that the entire country doesn't vote.....

for everyone that doesn't understand that, a simple Google check will enlighten you...

Dana Devalera's avatar

It was the way it was written. It wasn't clear. Excuse me if I misunderstood and don't need to be enlightened. Thank you. Maybe just say total # of those who voted to make it more clear and have some grace no one was going at you.

chev_chelios's avatar

I also repeated myself several times, which you and others failed to read, to make clear I was referring to the eligible voters who cast their ballots for tRUMP...which in my original post I used the word country instead of the popular vote....not in any way was it the entire country nor did I mean it to be....I'm guessing that would have been obvious ....but apparently not....though it seems I needed to post what the meaning of 49.9 % was since no one understood....

Dana Devalera's avatar

Yeah okay just keep going

Friedrike Merck's avatar

Hell of a post. Thank you for clearly laying out this extraordinary, new dynamic. And isn't that physically diminutive, modestly dressed Zelenskyy a fucking genius.

Ken Smith's avatar

He makes me smile with pride every time I see him, from Canada..!

Friedrike Merck's avatar

Absolutely. Makes me want to become a Ukrainian citizen.

kdsherpa's avatar

(Not all good. A friend with relatives fighting on the front lines has learned of some extremely disturbing behavior by some of the military leaders. Pretty sickening in three different situations about which I know.)

Friedrike Merck's avatar

I'm sure not all good. Imperfection is a fact of life but I'll take the imperfect Zelenskyy any day.

PJ Schuster's avatar

That really does bother me; I’d like to believe that the Ukrainian soldiers would be better than what we learned about the Russians, especially in Bucha.

kdsherpa's avatar

Soldiers good. Some leaders bad. (Said to be working for pukin.)

Catt woman's avatar

Is it too late for the Saudis to pull back their funding of Jared?

Noel Wright's avatar

Not at all, supposed to be reviewed later this year…. FUGGETABOUTIT!

Mary E.'s avatar

The latest 5 or 6 BILLION Boy Blunder has practically demanded hasn’t been “approved” yet, and I’ve seen some detailed reporting that MBS is very hesitant about it. Very possible it’ll never happen.

Niki~🚫 Hope 🚫💲⏰💣🇨🇱's avatar

🫰🫰🫰🫰🙏🙏🙏 for diaper donnie to keep the insults flowing!

Karina Christopherson's avatar

I couldn't believe Jared/Trump received anything the first time!

Douglas Mackay's avatar

Who could have guessed that the US would be on the outside looking in, with its tail stuck between its legs? Such a downfall. Such a turnaround. All thanks to Trump, a moribund Congress, and a feckless Cabinet. Actually, Trump made the latter two moribund and feckless so it’s all on Trump. Hard to imagine the US ever being able to get back its lost ground and soul.

Ken Smith's avatar

Yes Douglas, and I hope the Russel V and the Project 2025 get their wings clipped, or more!

kdsherpa's avatar

45 years ago when I studied History in college, I was always amazed at how insane things were in this country when the robber barons were in control. "How primitive!" I would think. In a million years I never could have dreamed that what has happened/is happening in my country could be like this. It's so far beyond astonishing that I simply have no words for it.

PJ Schuster's avatar

Don’t forget a big contribution to this horrible mess is the corrupt, purchased 6 on the Supreme Court.

Catherine Beck's avatar

MBS is utterly despicable. There is no doubt about that --- and no way to dislodge him as an absolute monarch and ME power broker either.

Therefore, I must be very glad for all Ukrainians that a NEW way of potentially smashing Putin's oil sales is opening up! That is the best Easter present possible, even better than a huge Laura Secord Easter Egg. Slava Ukraini!

---- Thanks for making that clear in this post, Dean!

"If (MBS) decides Russia is actively helping Iran kill Saudis, (the long-term Saudi-Russian) relationship ends. And if Saudi Arabia floods the oil market to punish Moscow’s war economy, the pressure on Russia to negotiate in Ukraine increases dramatically. The Ukrainian-Gulf security pact doesn’t just change Middle Eastern defense architecture. It potentially changes the economics of Russia’s war."

Patricia Poohkay's avatar

Only Zelenskyy could have seen that way out for diminishing russias war. Bravo!!

Ken Smith's avatar

Gives me hope for the potential just end to Ukraine's fight for freedom........your lips to God's ears.

Susan Macaulay's avatar

Wow. This is HUGE. Trump's incredible arrogance is bringing him (and the United States) down at an accelerating pace - finally! Too bad the whole world is having to pay the price for his recklessness, crudeness, narcissism, ignorance and stupidity.

Penelope Lane's avatar

The deeper problem is that Trump is a case of arrested development: he never grew up emotionally, but remained at the level of a nine-year old. His tiny hands with undeveloped fingers betray this, and it's confirmed by all the data about his vicious criminal father.

This is worse than simply being a criminal, hateful adult, because there is no adult ego in Trump to respond sensibly to events or to change himself. That is why every possible means has to be brought to bear to get him out of office. Urgently.

Friedrike Merck's avatar

Just like a family run by narcissistic parents predictably getting ruined, a country run by a narcissist will get pretty much destroyed.

Lyn M's avatar

Everything Trump touches, dies. Look around him. Look at the people in this administration are aging rapidly.

Trump assumes everyone will bow to his demands. Wrong.

Thomas Locatell's avatar

It was only a matter of time before Trump's racism overuled the debatable reasons we were Saudi backers to begin with.

Noel Wright's avatar

Yes! We all knew that Humpty hates all Muslims; heck, even MBS knew that.

Darlene Bobik's avatar

I sit here this a.m. wondering what caused the 49.1% who elected this man, a man so narcissistic, a man who holds no real ideals with the exception of how can I enrich myself, a man so racist & full of imagined grievance it prevails in everything he says & does I would ask them all, what did you really expect from this term? So many of us who were on social media were repeating the warnings & not subtly I might add. Too many of them forgot what damages he caused the people, the economy & yes to the vast relationships between allies. This is what happens when your partisanship overtakes your better judgement. You may think you're voting for your "dear old party" but in the end you're voting for a man. Trump's past should have spoken for itself. They made him into some sort of distorted image of an idol who is so undeserving of anyone's devotion it would be funny if the ramifications of doing so weren't so dire in the end. I'm afraid this will takes years of careful thought amongst all of our countries and true allies before this mess can be repaired, if at all possible.

Was ever a man so consistently wrong in every undertaking? Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. Not so Trump. It's obvious why he was a failed businessman and a bankrupt despite everything handed to him.

Even Putin might decide he's outlived his usefulness and is proving more of a liability than an asset after this. We can hope. Still, he's got his friends and fellow human rights abusers on his Board of Piece of Sh*ts, so that should be a comfort to him as it all goes to hell in a handbasket.

Emma Ray's avatar

Good one.....about the stopped clock being right twice a day!!!

Wendy Shelley's avatar

Felon did the sword dance with MBS, but apparently thinks they still remember that. Oh, maybe they do! As Rick Wilson says, ETTD. Never thought it would be MBS, but here it is taco time! Right now we are circling the drain.

Noel Wright's avatar

It would be great if Saudi Arabia suspended all arms purchases from the U.S.! Also, if the U.S. stopped giving vast amounts of taxpayer funds and weapons sales to both SA and Israel! Hey, some 17 U.S. bases in that region have apparently been rendered uninhabitable, and the host countries’ desalinization plants, oil facilities, hotels, etc. are being destroyed despite our “protection” of our allies there.

RandomHuman's avatar

Wow. Thank you for watching pResident Pimp speak so I don't have to. Krasnov lives (in the white house and Marashlocko).
