I wouldn't be surprised if Trump, at least, approved Khashoggi's murder in advance...

...and maybe even initiated it. Yes, yes...this is, for now, unsupported speculation. Yes, this is a "conspiracy theory". Is there a single person here at DU--or anywhere else--who thinks it's impossible, or even unlikely? If that interview on Egyptian TV is anywhere near correct, Khashoggi just might have had goods on Trump that makes the whole Mueller investigation look like a tiddly-winks game. Nothing is impossible in Trump's America.

since this happened. Almost looks like he sent Pompeo to prepare a cover story.

We need to get to the bottom of this. What did Trump know and when did he know it? Was Kushner involved?
