Saudi Prince Alwaleed gives Trump benefit of the doubt

Saudi Prince Alwaleed gives Trump benefit of the doubt:
"Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal was trolling Donald Trump on Twitter earlier this year — now he is offering a handshake emoji to the US president-elect.

The two outspoken billionaires clashed in 2015 after Mr Trump called for a ban on Muslims entering the US. He also promoted a fake photo of the Saudi royal, prompting Prince Alwaleed to mock Mr Trump, saying he had helped bail out the real estate mogul twice in the 1990s.

“My spat with him came when he attacked my religion, Islam,” Prince Alwaleed said. “He is now taking a conciliatory note and wants to be more inclusive, so that is welcomed by me, the Arab and Islamic worlds.”"
