The sword is worth of $ 200 million.

A small replica of Statue of Liberty but made with gold, diamond and precious stones will also be sent to White House soon.
Meanwhile, one of the major roads in Riyadh has also been named after Trump.
A 125 meter long yacht, which is worlds tallest personal yacht as it has 80 rooms with 20 royal suits, will also be sent through US navy to America.

. . . These gifts are usually eventually transferred to the Presidential Library of the President who received them. The Saudi King is smart. He knows Trump is going to have the biggest, bestest, baddest, greatest Presidential Library that will ever be in existence to display his gifts.
MAGA. :-)

My first wife sold jewelry to Arab potentates. I doubt if it’s inflated much.

sigh.... I really liked that gold sword.... I guess I'll take the 125 meter long yacht instead. I'll settle for the diamond. I can sell it for big bucks.

Unlike Hillary Clinton, President Trump and First Lady Melania will NOT be heisting these National Treasures when they leave the White House in 2025.

Yes, the US armed forces keep Iran at bay and let the Saudi’s retain power over their oil fields. $1.2 billion is a pittance.

I don’t understand it. You would think that in many ways they would have liked that he was giving away the store, and hating on Israel.
Evidently even our enemies like to see the adults in charge.

I hope President Trump will not put his library at Mar-a-Lago. It would be a shame to risk hurricanes (although, I’m a diver and I could with effort get a 25 kg gold sword back to the surface).

What would “minimal value” be for a billionaire?
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Just proves all prior presidents in our lifetime were already bought and paid for by the saudis.
Trumps Library is going to have lots of bling in it!

Of course the Saudis likes keep their biggest market open for their oil. Trump threatened it during his campaign so we get the Saudi charm offense.
To: 2ndDivisionVet
Correct me if my interpretation of Saudi culture is wrong, but it looks to me like the house of Saud is scared spitless and trying to earn their way into Trump’s good graces.

If the Philippines or Kenya had a bunch of money laying around they’d be doing the same thing.
