I think this argument plays both ways...
"TickTock: Right On! … … … We have given the Saudi’s pass after pass, have given them our military tech and design details, turned a blind eye to Saudi state sponsored assassination of a US resident who dared to speak out against them and we are helping them to destroy Yemen. What have we become? Where are our ideals? What do we stand for? I know trump was really happy about how much stuff the Saudi’s bought from us, and has mush-mouthed any potential condemnation. Is that it? Have our goals been reduced to just the next great deal? Are we willing to sacrifice our country’s soul for cash? Having principles is often pretty hard work. Supporting ideals, honoring Oaths and having ‘purpose’ is neither expedient nor easy, but it is necessary to win the future. It is hard, it takes long term commitment, it takes resolve to do what is ‘right’ because it is ‘right’ and it means passing up the next great deal- if it means sacrificing winning the future. The issue here lies with our official relations with the Saudi government and not in the details of how they helped their citizen’s escape American justice." -JimK
