13. Maybe they really like him. I wonder why. Because he's mean and corrupt? Corrupt is good for them?

Maybe corrupt IS good for them. He can be bought.

BTW, I've read that Saudi Arabia is one of the countries that loaned the Don millions, when he couldn't get loans in the U S and elsewhere after his bankruptcies. So he's indebted to them big time. So no surprise to learn that we will be giving S.A. a lot of money, if what I read is true.

The Donald loves spending OPM (Other People's Money), as he has said.
