That’s how the Saudis buy our politicians to do their bidding.
We have no national interest in Syria.
The Saudis do and that’s why Rubio, Graham and McCain were arming their jihadists.

I wonder if both McCain and Romney were AFRAID to be bold, because of the political glass houses in which they lived.

It took the rise of an outsider, Trump, to see the problem exposed.

The Saudis had been ‘quietly’ buying American real estate since at least the 1970s. Then they realized the way to truly ‘own’ us was by buying our politicians. Scratch just about anyone of them and you’ll strike Saudi gold.

Any politician’s non-profit is, perhaps not originally organized as, but certainly run as, a repository for bribes.

So did McCain disclose this as he encouraged war in Syria?
