Please explain your comment that the Iranian election was more fair than the US one?

Well, for one thing, unlike the New Hampshire elections according to Donald Trump,  busloads of Democrats from Massachusetts weren't transported to vote in the Iranian elections.

During Trump's visit to Riyadh, the U.S. sealed a $110 billion (85.34 billion pounds) arms deal with Saudi Arabia

 

Turns out, not really:

 

Last month, President Trump visited Saudi Arabia and his administration announced that he had concluded a $110 billion arms deal with the kingdom. Only problem is that there is no deal. It’s fake news.

 

I’ve spoken to contacts in the defense business and on the Hill, and all of them say the same thing: There is no $110 billion deal. Instead, there are a bunch of letters of interest or intent, but not contracts. Many are offers that the defense industry thinks the Saudis will be interested in someday. So far nothing has been notified to the Senate for review. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency, the arms sales wing of the Pentagon, calls them “intended sales.” None of the deals identified so far are new, all began in the Obama administration.

There is literally nothing that this administration hasn't lied about.

 

Yet Trump supporters just keep lapping it up like some special breed of BS foodies.
