Sorry man, I attended a private university for both my Bachelors and the local state university for my Masters, but make all the snide comments you want, still a stupid claim. The man owns one of the nicest hotels in that area and one of the most expensive if you could afford it where would you stay.

Trump is one of the world's most easily recognized moguls...right up there with the Rockefellers and Anderson Cooper's family. When it comes down to it, the Clintons and the Bush's aren't exactly "down home folks" either-not by a long shot. The man's name is literally one of the most famous real estate brands in history... so, no disrespect, but I'm not sure how much this Sheikh's "26 nights" costing "thousands of dollars" at one of his hotels immediately equates to foreign intrusion into American policy abroad, let alone, "corruption". Now selling uranium to our number one peer threat while Secretary of State? That, I wonder about.
I will say that Iran has been an aggressor for over forty years. I've personally had their crap aimed at me while virtually a sitting duck, well inside of international waters, and felt my stomach turn watching American sailors have to "stand by" while they boarded us with no more difficulty than a traffic stop. I don't want to see us go to war with them if we don't absolutely have to, but neither do I think we can keeping asking the rowdy kids in the back of the class to "please sit down" and get anywhere.
As to the Sheik's correspondence, I could write the Administration all day about my concerns and get no response...maybe if I were a lower royal who dropped coins at Trump's place I might get an audience...but I don't expect I'd be telling them anything the CIA, NSA, or the Nightly News hasn't already reported on.

SSGt Stone-You say "aggressive" like it's always bad word. Unwarranted aggression? Ok, I'll agree with your there, but for the better part of the last century, the U.S. has been the major player on the world stage trying to prevent penny-any dictators, genocidal madmen, and over-zealous "revolutionary" governments from turning the globe into one giant war zone. We try to control the proliferation of nuclear weapons because we are among the nations least likely to use them outside our own defense...and one of the primary targets of would-be nuclear terrorism. Iran was once an ally, under a moderate, stable government...that was until violent radicals overthrew the Shah and set up an "Islamic Republic". Since then, they've been the one's poking the dragon, and ostensibly supporting any number of potentially hostile organizations.
I don't think every time we've gone to war it has been justified, or that even when it has been, that we've always fought our wars the right way. Still, I don't believe we can achieve peace through pacification.

A billion-dollar Indonesian property development with ties to US President Donald Trump has become the latest project in China’s globe-spanning Belt and Road infrastructure project – just as Washington and Beijing are tussling over trade. How is that for hypocrisy?

Trump rails against China during dinner with executives
The president also noted, without naming the country, that 'almost every student that comes over to this country is a spy.'
