In late May 2017, Donald Trump arrived in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, bearing gifts of a $110 billion arms deal to challenge Iranian influence in the region, and support for the Saudis’ brutal war in Yemen that has killed more than 10,000 civilians and left more than 10 million without sufficient food and water. The Saudis lavished Trump with 83 of their own gifts, including swords, daggers, a robe lined in cheetah fur, and a portrait of the U.S. president. And Saudi Arabia and the UAE together pledged $100 million to a fund for women entrepreneurs proposed by Ivanka Trump.
