If the stories are correct....roughly thirty being held....billions likely to be confiscated from them....torture, etc....then I’d suggest the following.

Relatives of those being held will seek to move their cash way outside of the Kingdom. For the Saudi government, they may think this effort will help fund the government but it’ll create a shortfall in investment funds over the next five years.

Second, relatives will probably go and fund ISIS to come into the Kingdom and start up a civil war. The Kingdom is NOT prepared for this, and would literally have to go and beg Trump for assistance. Trump would say give them a quote....probably a billion per week, to get US troops.

Finally, if ISIS did achieve the war status...what happens to gas prices? Massive escalation. Iran would get a chance to really pump oil hard and fast.

Thank you for the breakdown.
THIS is what the media needs to be talking about.
NOT LaVar Ball, NOT, what shoes Melania chose not to wear today, NOT Jamie Dimon predicting Trump would only be a one term president.
