Trump contradicts CIA on killing of Khashoggi, says agency ‘had feelings’ but did not firmly place blame on Saudi crown prince

By Washington Post Staff November 22 at 11:08 AM

Speaking to reporters at his Florida resort, President Trump said the CIA had not come to a conclusion that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ordered the killing of Washington Post contributing columnist Jamal Khashoggi.

Trump brushed aside the intelligence community’s assessment that the crown prince had ordered the killing and reiterated that Saudi Arabia was too valuable an ally to lose over the incident. “I hate the crime…I hate the coverup. I will tell you this: The crown prince hates it more than I do,” Trump said.

This is a developing story. It will be updated.

1. So let's hear it from the lips of the CIA.

I'm pretty sure they documented what they told Trump, and when they told him.

To the Saudi consulate in Turkey. Never to be heard from again.

3. The crown prince hates it more than I do," Trump said.

Trump has to know that the CIA has MSB on tape ordering the hit.

13. Ah, that old song comes to mind...

Feelings, nothing more than feelings,
Trying to forget my feelings of love.
Teardrops rolling down on my face,
Trying to forget my feelings of love.
Feelings, for all my life I'll feel it.
I wish I've never met you, girl; you'll never come again.
Feelings, wo-o-o feelings,
Wo-o-o, feel you again in my arms.


Each day I find myself wondering where the f*** our country went so astray as to have this imbecile who can't put together a coherent sentence running our country.

5. I heard a former CIA agent on TV

say that if they learn intelligence that someone is about to be harmed, they are bound by law to inform that person that they are in danger.

I want to know if Trump told the CIA not to warn the journalist.

6. Trump: Maybe the world should be held accountable because the world is a vicious place.

8. It is obvious that Saudia Arabia has threatened trump & family with not giving them more $$$

This is about the money that SA gives the trump family, mainly to Jarred & Ivanka, and that is what the man-child wants to protect.

There is treason and then there are the trumps...why can't people see that?

9. I know that the UAE used an American firm to rent out his (Jared's) building in NYC for 99 years...

.... order to pay off the 1.3 billion $ note that he owed on it but I wonder if some of the money
the UAE used started in Saudi Arabia.

10. Yes, enforce the emoluments clause...it is very clear that rump and family are enriching them...

selves and harming the country's (USA) reputation and our role as the world leader as the voice of freedom and
morality. rump has proven that people w/ money like he supposed has, lean towards those things that enrich them and their families.

12. Trump goes way back with SA.

When he was going broke from one of his casino bankruptcies it was a Saudi who bought his yacht for 20 million.

The Saudis bought an entire floor at Trump tower which keeps it in the black.

11. "The crown prince hates it more than I do"??

You evil, lying, thieving, son-of-a-bitch!

14. Trump is acting like a guilty person

I think Trump is involved somehow. I think he held a grudge against Khashoggi for criticizing him 2yrs earlier.

15. With time, no doubt we could learn he has been responsible for many destroyed lives.

I read about his long-burning grudge against Khashoggi, also.

He probably has NEVER ever just "let it go" and he is undoubtedly too small and stupid to ever forgive, or capable of seeing beyond his most greedy, amoral self.
