Trump says LIV Golf worth billions in publicity for Saudi Arabia, claims interest in Jamal Khashoggi murder has 'totally died down' in WSJ interview

"I do think that the publicity that they've gotten, more than anything, has been a great thing for them," Trump said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal. "I think the publicity they've gotten is worth billions of dollars. It's one of the hottest things to have happened in sports, and sports is a big part of life."

-snip-

"I can say that from the standpoint of Khashoggi, that has died down so much," Trump said. "It really seems to have totally died down."

Like they're attempting to do with January 6th? It doesn't take much of a Google search to know that most cons in Congress and the Senate are on the payrolls of Big Oil / Saudi Arabia.
