Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

Our totalitarian race-despot regime is going to be sending death squads into churches to attack Christians while they celebrate the birth of the Christ child
