Trump: Saudi Arabia another case of 'guilty until proven innocent'

President Trump on Tuesday criticized people blaming Saudi Arabia for the disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, saying they are prejudging the case.

"Here we go again with, you know, you're guilty until proven innocent. I don't like that," Trump said during an interview with The Associated Press.

The president likened the global outcry against Saudi Arabia to the controversy surrounding Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who was accused of sexual assault during his confirmation process.

"We just went through that with Justice Kavanaugh and he was innocent all the way as far as I'm concerned," he said. "So we have to find out what happened."

His narcissism does not allow him to accept that he can be wrong either. The man is an idiot who thinks that he is smart. I think that he is a lost cause and can only await his self destruction.

He doesn't give a damn how his friends deal with a rogue journalist. On the contrary, it's the type of gangesterism he admires.

Jeff Bezos heads up a $1T corporation that owns the media outlet that employs Khashoggi. He has the means to start fighting back, and should do so.
