A recent Washington Post Article provides a summary of how Trump and Kushner have been financially enriched by Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) in return for saving MBS’ “ass” (Trump’s words, not mine). https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/02/12/after-helping-princes-rise-trump-kushner-benefit-saudi-funds/). However, the article omits some important details on the ascent of MBS and a number of reasonable conclusions, which may be not obvious to the general reader.
