Hello again, JREF.
My own opinion, in answer to the thread topic, is yes.
The most recent example I can think of is Trump's supporting Saudi's crown prince in the face of the CIA's assessment that the prince was responsible for the gruesome murder of the Saudi journalist.
Trump's motives, as usual, are transparent. He says Saudi Arabia is too important to US economic interests, including a grossly-exaggerated figure, "$400 billion," per year in arms sales. So Trump's overriding interest is making money for the US, morals be damned.
Now I've done it, probably skewed the thread-question answers by tendering my own opinion. But most of you folks in other countries have more important opinions than my own, in answering the thread question, since I live in the US.
