Saudis Mistake Their Alliance With Trump for an Alliance With the - Bloomberg:
Last week my Bloomberg opinion colleague Eli Lake asked whether Democrats want to maintain the alliance with Saudi Arabia. This question should also be posed in reverse: Does Saudi Arabia want to maintain the alliance with the U.S. rather than just Trump administration?
The Saudi government is not doing enough to protect the relationship. It’s drawing bipartisan criticism such as the recent congressional vote to end involvement in the Yemen war. But worse, it’s becoming a partisan issue between Republicans and Democrats.
That's incredibly dangerous. The U.S.-Saudi relationship has been resilient precisely because it's indispensable.
