Play of the Day: The Potential American Response to Attacks On Saudi Oil
President Donald Trump tweeted about conferring with the Saudis about potential reprisals.
Septuagenarian Democratic 2020 contenders Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden both committed this week to releasing their medical records soon during the primaries. Jimmy Kimmel joked about the news, saying that men that age love talking about their health problems and that both strike him as the men in the gym locker room who want to hold naked conversations.
President Donald Trump tweeted that the United States is “locked and loaded” after Saudi Arabian oil installations were attacked over the weekend. Late Night's Seth Meyers joked about the phrase, saying that "locked and loaded" for Trump just means he's ready to tweet some more. Meyers also noted that Trump has ties to the Saudi royal family going back to the glowing orb photo, while Late Show's Stephen Colbert noted the potential emolument-related news about Saudis use of Trump hotel rooms, joking that U.S. military power is part of Trump Hotels' "Rent 500 rooms and get a free war" loyalty program.
