There isn't even anyone who remembers he was there.

And, if Trump thinks he has the political pull to get the King to do his IPO on the NY stock exchange, he's deluded. Even if it happens, it won't be because Trump begged him.

Kushner (not the sharpest knife in the drawer) who just visited.

This upheaval, with two dead princes now, just seems to be getting started, as if the world needs more upheaval in that region.

Meanwhile, in the USA, no one has enough context or awareness of what is happening in that part of the world to be able to realize the rest of the universe does not revolve around Trump. But that doesn't stop people from blabbing away with ignorant comments.
