President Trump says the US is 'locked and loaded pending verification' of who is responsible for the crippling attack on a Saudi oil field

Washington President Donald Trump on Sunday evening tweeted that the US has"reason to believe that we know" who is responsible for an attack on a Saudi Arabian oil field and the country is"locked and loaded depending on verification" following the crippling strike.

"Saudi Arabia oil supply was attacked. There is reason to believe that we know the culprit, are locked and loaded depending on verification, but are waiting to hear from the Kingdom as to who they believe was the cause of this attack, and under what terms we would proceed!" Trump said. On Saturday, coordinated strikes on key Saudi Arabian oil facilities -- among the world's largest energy production centers -- disrupted 5% of the daily global oil supply.

Hes surely the king of eloquent and appropriate language in ALL situations!! LMAO! Were all probably going to die before he's done fighting everyone, everywhere, every day because he's unable of being mature, thoughtfully calculating the weight his words BEFORE speakin/tweeting

Looks like Iran is going to get a taste of freedom shortly.

Always fun to be locked and loaded. Problem is, you need a target.

We cannot afford another war. And Trump does not have the authority to take this country into war.

Now everyone is scared 😱 😂😂😂When his mouth opens he’s lying 🤥

“Locked and loaded” the only locks Commander Bone Spurs is familiar with are those on a PVC S&M suit.

Reminder: America popularized drone strikes. Shame when it comes to roost.

US empire must stop its wars for oil. We need a GreenNewDeal

It was the Israelis Mr. President.

Locked and loaded? The man needs a mental health check

He hasn’t got a clue who did it. He and his Secretary of State were quick to accuse Iran

Saudi Arabia and it allies have been bombing Yemen for the past 4yrs now, the United States didn’t have issues with that, the partial n bias super power.

Why the best part of being energy independent is we don’t have to deal with these desert rats any more. It’s up to Saudi’s to respond or not.

We shouldn’t trust the Saudis , they want the US to fight on their behalf...they should defend themselves

Considering they are an Ally... this is no surprise. Whether or not we should be an Ally is a different question.

So why cant Saudi Arabia handle this themselves?

Ur t president of America only.remember that

Ouuuu Weeeeee!!!!!

Excuses for starting a war

Pardon me, but isn’t it the Saudi’s who should be locked and loaded? What the hell are we looking to get involved in another shooting war for? Let them choke on their oil

The point of these Saudi claims, as in May 2019 might be: “There is no clear evidence of the alleged attack on the Saudi oil vessels off the UAE coast, but oil prices rose on speculation regardless.”

Oil ! Americans don’t joke with it 😀

Love having a strong leader in the WH.

Would Anyone B Surprised IF this Attack Was By a Clandestine Person/Group Who WANTS (the U.S. In) THIS WAR WITH IRAN?! Given POTUS Ran on ENDING WARS He Seems Hell Bent on Starting One With Somebody?! He he standing 2 Profit with this War as well?

IRAN HAS BEEN BEGGING FOR AN ASS KICKING! Blew up tankers, US drone shoot down and attack Saudi oil fields!

What happened to the billions of dollars worth of weapons sold to SaudiArabia why can’t they take care of their own country’s defence and be the ones “locked and loaded” let them sort their own messes out! billmaher TulsiGabbard

This has nothing to do with US. Let Saudi Arabia take care of it.

Let the Saudi’s handle it!!!!!!!

The deranged anti-Trump cult losing their minds in 3... 2... 1..., oops too late.

Don’t like this.

He loves to say “locked and loaded”. It’s almost as if he has never served 🙄

When have we heard that line before? Trump thinks this is reality tv.

realDonaldTrump is dangerous, a menace, and has to be stopped. TrumpHatesMilitaryFamilies TrumpIsAWhiteSupremacist TrumpIsADisgrace ImpeachTrump

People are so stupid and they listen to media it is not crippling Saudi it’s going to impact USA 🇺🇸 whe get most of our cheep oil from Saudi so expect higher prices coming soon

Its Saudi Arabias problem not ours

Sounds like Trump is putting his John Bolton on

I am sure Iran is worried. Empty threat from a coward draft Dodger. Remember his threat to KJU who proceeded to test a Hydrogen bomb and got Fat Donny to send love letters. Coward!

That pig is taking are family’s to war with Iran. He needs to go 2020

Now if only the rebels in Yemen hadn't publicly declared that they were the responsible folk so that he could get his pet short victorious war off the ground. Eh?

He may already know what happened

Time to make Iran & Syria a parking lot!

Great another war. Lead by u no who the Americans hooooo rasasasa

President orange man says the US is 'locked and loaded pending verification' of who is responsible for the crippling attack on a Saudi oil field

So we defend a criminal country that murders Americans 🤷🏼‍♀️ go figure.

He shouldn't speak that way

Saudi has one of the highest military budgets in the world let them defend There selves

Y MEANING OF Y 7:24 R ENE EGIRGOS FOR LOCK LOAD BB GOT 7:25 LEFT TO RED ON 878 28 NOW IS

Trump says they're ready to nuke the hurricane !

Who benefits most from the loss of Saudi oil output? The US.

Ugh

NO NO NO WAR WITH IRAN DAMMIT 😡😡😡 realDonaldTrump

I totally believe that Trump has been waiting to use the term 'locked and loaded' for the past 3 years. Like it's a role in a reality show. He just wants ego filler......even at the loss of American lives.

Trump thinks a war will get him re-elected, that Americans will be fearful of changing presidents in the middle of a war. It won't work, because too many of us will remember who got us into it.

Saudi Arabia bombs Yemen with American weapons and we sit silent. Saudi Arabia's oil gets hit and we become apoplectic.

realDonaldTrump does this help you feel big and powerful This isn’t a game. It’s real life. Come back down to earth and resign ImpeachKavanaugh take the other sexual assaulters with you.

so the US gives weapons to Saudi Arabia to attack Yemen is OK but if Iran gives drones to Yemen and they use them to attack Saudi Arabia to force them into stopping their attacks, that is bad? doublestandard

Trump will not initiate significant military action. Hes too much of a coward and military force would take away from the press he prefers for himself.

Oh,he's loaded. Definetely.

Wagging the Trumpian Dog?

There is no valid reason for war with Iran. None.

let me guess... Israel is going to provide the verification and is going to point to Iran... sarcasm

Shame on you for having Liz Cheney on to talk about the U.S. confronting another country with war lingo. Her dad got us into Iraq and she needs to take a seat and just stop pretending to have knowledge on the subject.

Iran denied having anything to do with the attack. If given a choice between believing the Trump administration or anyone else, I’d believe anyone else.

Doesn’t Saudi Arabia have their own military to deal with this?

Remember YOUR CHILDREN defend America, NOT HIS.

So,Trump Is “Locked And Loaded” To Go To War For Saudi Arabia....

Yes he needs to protect the murders that run that country. Kinda just like himself.

Wonder if it's the same people responsible for 9-11?

The only thing that is: 'locked and loaded' is the big mouth of The Orange Seditionist.

Locked & loaded for what? What has Congress authorized?

Ok RAMBOTrump

Commander Bone Spurs is afraid of stairs

The MAGA 2A crowd had a joint orgasm, measuring 45 on the Richter Scale.

Russia sponsored drone attacks..

In sorry but trumpie has no idea what that means. He must have overheard a cartoon.

So the Saudis can't protect themselves?

So what country will we now attack for Israel?

What does that mean?

We do have protection treaties with them and it would give Trump a war to run on.

They did so they can raise the prices

The secret code Alabama

Fuck

So this basically means realDonaldTrump has some good shares in the Saudi oil! Why is he so investigative!! Terrorism is on the thrive!

You missed the important part...waiting for the Saudi’s to tell us what we should do....

All that garbage abound ending foreign wars, but he sounds giddy about triggering another one.

Of course he is; Netanyahu needs a win on Tuesday & the thing in the WH needs the truth to go away

'Adelson's balls ain't gonna lick themselves … that's my job!' - DJT

Let the Saudis handle it themselves.

As usual, doofus is acting before he has all the facts. Talk like that is dangerous. How is this protecting America as he swore to do.

I would be speculating or surmising Iran, does anyone remember the stealth drone Iran conveniently managed to hack during the Obama Administration, then there was the electromagnetic pulse device big enough to simulate a magnetic pulse of a nuclear explosion, I've seen enough!

So they are just ignoring that the Saudis say it was Yemen. Are we going too ignore real intel, to get into a other war in the Middle East?
