There was none of the Obama apologizing for the United States, blaming the United States and Israel for the problems of the Middle East, and none of the blather that the United States cannot call terrorism what it is because we once had slavery in our country.

Ping!

Ah, for the under 40s, that’s not how they’d watch the speech anyway.

Liberals created facebook and twitter and they were ruined by it :)

Boy that feels great :)

Yep if it was a bad speech, then it would immeaditly been all over the news.

Instead we have silence, and can’t find it?

In the meanwhile Geore Soros Media Matters combs through it to give anything their friends in the media.

It was a great speech! I especially liked it when President Trump said that all people want justice and peace but did not say that all people want freedom. We know now that all people do not want freedom in the way that Americans do.

At least c-span carried it. I remember when GWB gave what may have been the best speech of his presidency from a former Soviet Union country (maybe in Prague or Budapest). C-Span did not even cover it. When questioned, they said that they didn't have the funds to go everywhere. LLPOF. Now we have the internet.

TheBaltimore Sun has a bigger article on "nut job" than on the Saudi Arabia trip. I could only read a couple of paragraphs before my joy at the speech began to dissipate. The Sun used words that President Trump never said to make the speech sound less than it was,which was masterful!

It was a great speech, and the agreement reached with the Arab states is momentous! It is extremely significant! The media refuses to acknowledge it, and concentrates on petty things, and won’t let go of impeachment.
Meanwhile, the lying media didn’t tell the American people that bammy just got back from a vacation in Italy. What? you didn’t hear about it?

And he sealed it with the hands on the globe....which was like ball players doing hand on hand....we're all in this together and we want to win.

That globe was for the opening of a world wide initiative to stamp out terrorism.

Trump’s Saudi Speech: Pretty Good
But one speech does not a policy make; it must be the beginning of a consistent approach in battling Islamist ideology.
By Daniel Pipes — May 21, 2017

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/447835/trump-saudi-speech-pretty-good-must-begin-consistent-approach

In Riyadh, on the first stop of his tri-monotheism tour that will take him to Jerusalem and Rome (sorry, Mecca was not available), Donald Trump gave a major speech on a wide range of topics: the Middle East, jihadi violence, Iran, an “Arab NATO,” and Islam. It’s a mixed performance, but overall positive.

First, what’s wrong with the 34-minute speech: It was incoherent, jumping from topic to topic and then back again. It was neither eloquent nor insightful (as in, “Terrorists do not worship God, they worship death”). In places, it consisted of Obama-like euphemisms, such as the statement that history’s great test stands before us, one goal that transcends every other consideration: “to conquer extremism and vanquish the forces of terrorism.”

And it was farcical to announce the opening in Riyadh (the headquarters of Wahhabism) of a Global Center for Combating Extremist Ideology. I bristled at Trump calling Saudi Arabia “sacred land.” I gagged on the warm praise for King Salman, someone implicated in contributing tens of millions of U.S. dollars during the 1990s to finance jihadi violence in Bosnia and Pakistan.

The context of the speech is acutely worrisome: U.S.–Saudi agreements totaling over $380 billion grants a tyrannical regime added influence over Americans. The $110 billion Saudi purchase of U.S. arms makes a vast arsenal available to a government whose goals differ profoundly from those of most Americans.

These not inconsiderable reservations aside, it was a good speech that signaled a major shift in the right direction from the Obama years — particularly with regard to Iran and Islam. Most important was Trump’s willingness to point to the ideology of Islamism as the enemy. This matters exceedingly for, just as a physician must first identify a medical problem before treating it, so a strategist must identify the enemy before defeating it. To talk about “evildoers,” “terrorists,” and “violent extremists” is to miss the enemy’s Islamic core.

Whether the bigot-press recognizes him as a great president, or not, the press is behaving like something I scrape off my shoe when I come in the house.

They just outright suck. Immature, biased liberal POS’s. Trying to brainwash the masses and feed hatred towards our president, one who cares about putting us back on track and being prosperous and safe etc. I just don’t get it. There must be some evil people behind them pulling strings.

We Americans would do well to heed these words of advice!
