Even the Trump admin is subject to international pressure



Why do I feel like there's some catch?

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.

UPDATE 10/22:



Mnuchin had already planned the visit as part of a weeklong trip to the region before Khashoggi’s death. He had been set to address Tuesday's investment conference, billed as “Davos in the desert,” as part of Prince Mohammed’s Vision 2030 plan to modernize and diversify the Saudi economy. But after a deluge of withdrawals from high-profile investors, media outlets and other international leaders, Mnuchin followed suit. Still, the US Treasury secretary kept the rest of his itinerary intact, pointing to the need to attend a terrorism financing summit this week.
