Nobody Can Find the $300 Billion
The MOU explicitly includes a $300 billion redevelopment fund for Iran. That’s not in dispute, it’s written into the text of the agreement. When that became public, the Trump regime’s line was that the money would come from Gulf Arab nations, not American taxpayers. Secretary of State Marco Rubio traveled to the Middle East to meet with Gulf Cooperation Council countries, and when asked whether he had discussed the $300 billion with them, he brushed it off, saying that’s “way down the line.”
Now here’s the part that should embarrass everyone involved. GCC Secretary General Jasem Al Budaiwi was asked directly about the fund, and he said he has not seen anything about it, that it was never introduced to him or to any other GCC countries, and that they simply don’t know anything about it. He said it was never part of any conversation they had.
So to recap: Trump put a $300 billion commitment into a signed agreement, claimed it wouldn’t cost Americans a dime because Gulf nations would cover it, and the Gulf nations are now saying on camera that they have no idea what he’s talking about.open.substack.com - Sunday afternoon updates trump hitsMeanwhile- Trump is touring one of the municipal DC golf courses that he’s wanting to refurbish.
Given the disaster he precipitated at the Reflecting Pool, you’d think his handlers WOULD give him a good talking to.
I’d say he might want to focus on doing his job, but again- maybe it’s best that he’s puttering around a golf course instead.
The guy is just one big bundle of grifting disaster.
