When President Barack Obama was reelected in 2012, a Saudi tycoon and his business associate sent hundreds of thousands of dollars to the U.S. to help pay for the inaugural celebration and get a picture with the president, according to court documents and an analysis of campaign finance records by The Associated Press.

U.S. election law prohibits foreign nationals from making those sorts of political contributions. But the donations Sheikh Mohammed Al Rahbani tried to send to Obama’s inaugural committee were funneled through a seasoned straw donor, the records and the AP analysis show.

That intermediary, Imaad Zuberi, agreed this month to plead guilty to making illegal campaign contributions to several American political candidates on behalf of foreign nationals. He is also set to plead guilty to concealing his work as a foreign agent as he lobbied high-level U.S. government officials.

And we partner with them in genocide in Yemen. Are you suggesting this was why Don's inaugural celebration was so poorly attended? No Saudi assistance? He's sure sucked them off while in office.
 
Now Saudis get to murder American based journalists.....fuck an inauguration party, chopping people up and getting away with it is so much more festive

Just thinking about all the crimes committed under Barack Hussein.
