"... Trump would make them pay the AMERICAN PEOPLE back."

Riiiight. And how much are we getting from Iraqi oil sales ?

The Saudis are an integral part of keeping the dollar as the world reserve currency. Screw with them about much of anything other than taking orders for weapons and they'll start taking payment in gold which would collapse the dollar in a heartbeat.

Until the US pays off the $22 trillion in debt we've run up no one will pressure the Saudis about anything. Our whole government worked overtime to cover their asses after 9/11 when we didn't even have half as much debt.

Put the pipe down, pal, you're definitely one toke over the line.

Being the world's reserve currency gives us a flexibility - and besides the Chinese already tried dumping Treasuries. It didn't work. Trump's NOT Clinton...
