#1 While you at that, Mr President, tell cats to become vegetarians - why don't you?

#2 Well, maybe not cats, but dogs. Seems to be a big commercial selling point now is that a lot of brands of pet food at chocked full of grain.

In New York parlance, when the 'Don' advises you to do something, you'd better pay attention.

#5 A Dose of Reality In Riyadh

That's how I see it, too. And a signed contract and performance perameters against which the 50+ Muslim heads of state will be measured, not the usual meaningless diplomatic dance they've done since oil became a critical resource sometime in the 1930s. If President Trump can stay the course, this will be game changing. But if not, even China is now looking at fracking their own, I've read, so the Muslim Middle East will soon enough run down their bank accounts... and then the criminal side enterprises of the jihadis will be all they have.

#6 Saudi Arabian oil money is drying up. They will need friends (or a place to flee) pretty bad in a couple of decades. Trump could make a lot of hay by promising that if they end Islamic terror before his second term is out he'll do something to shut down fracking.
