Saudi Arabia & Qatar Flip Trump Off Over His Gaslighting Speech (Jimmy Dore)

Despite what Donald Trump may have said during his address to the nation on, fittingly, April 1, U.S. alliances with Gulf states are fraying, with Qatar moving to expel American forces and Saudi Arabia signing a defense pact with Ukraine while freezing out Washington.

Jimmy contrasts Trump's delusional boasts of allied support with the Iranian president's powerful address—reminding viewers that Iran has not initiated a war in modern history, while the U.S. has bombed Iran twice during peace negotiations.

Iran has only grown stronger under sanctions, with literacy tripling and infrastructure booming, while America sinks trillions into endless wars for Israel's benefit. The segment concludes that Trump's planned ground invasion is a disaster for the world and for his own presidency, as even his own party no longer believes him.



Trump said that the US would not let Gulf State countries be harmed, but they've been smashed by Iranian ballistic missiles and drones. Everyone knows that the US is doing Israel's bidding with little to no real concern about any other country. This seems to be too much for the leaders of the Gulf State countries to bear, or to sell to their populations, and it looks like they've had enough.
