№ 478: Donald Defends MBS

If you think MBS
is a reprobate*,
you don't know
New York/New Jersey
real estate.
Jared and I,
we can relate.

However, others
are hard to convince
it's in U.S. interest
to stick with the Prince
and refrain from denouncing
murdering journalists.

Or his killing dozens, scores,
TEN THOUSAND civilians.
(Most of them Yemeni women and children.)
With made-in-America expensive munitions.
No disputation.
MBS is good for our nation.

And, did I mention
that in due course
together we'll build
Persian Gulf courses?
With these resources
Trump brand, Saudi money
in sandy Riyadh,
it'll be sunny.

(Until, that is,
the revolution
when Saudis apply
their Wahhabi solution
and we re-ally
with our old pal Iran
to contain
our Saudi friends'
Islamist plan.

And so it goes.
Keeps us on our toes.)
