Trump said, “Just so you understand, I don’t make deals with Saudi Arabia, I don’t have money from Saudi Arabia, I have nothing to do with Saudi Arabia I couldn’t care less and I will tell you, as most of you know, being president has cost me a fortune and that’s okay with me I knew that a long time ago.
