      I object for the sole reason that Trump probably did this for the UAE.

        Just Trump doing it is enough to object.

          A lot of Arab governments and heads of state have no business existing, let alone being in power.

          We support them economically and militarily.

          If we stopped the gulf would be better for everyone.
