Trump’s Core Strategy In the Middle East

There is an opportunity for the Middle East to be defined “by commerce, not chaos,” President Donald Trump said, speaking at the Saudi-U.S. Investment Forum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Tuesday. 

The president is using the universal language of economic prosperity as he visits Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates this week, reminding the Middle East it can “exports technology, not terrorism.” 

Trump has finalized a number of deals since the trip began, including “an agreement with Qatar to generate an economic exchange worth at least $1.2 trillion,” according to the White House. Trump also announced a $600 billion commitment from Saudi Arabia to invest in the U.S., mainly in areas of energy and technology. 

In addition to his economic strategy, Trump continues to remind the Middle East why Iran cannot be allowed to have a nuclear weapon and to call for a deal between the U.S. and Iran that not only prevents the further development of Tehran’s nuclear program, but also stops Iran from funding terrorism. 

Speaking in Qatar on Wednesday, Trump said Iran “must stop sponsoring terror, halt its bloody proxy wars, and permanently and verifiably cease pursuit of nuclear weapons. They cannot have a nuclear weapon.”

On this week’s edition of “Problematic Women,” we break down what you need to know about Trump’s historic visit to the Middle East and discuss if there is any hope for change in Iran. 

Also on today’s show, the far Left has a fashion issue: They don’t want to be mistaken as “MAGA” by what they wear. So, what to do? Dress sloppily instead, according to The New York Times.
