US President Donald Trump says he has been briefed on a recording of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi's murder - but will not listen to it himself.
"It's a suffering tape, it's a terrible tape," he told Fox News Sunday.
The CIA has reportedly concluded the powerful Saudi Crown Prince ordered the killing but the White House is yet to endorse that assessment.
Even supporters in the US Congress have been pressing President Trump for a tougher response to the killing, but with Saudi Arabia a key partner in the Middle East this may be something Mr Trump is reluctant to do.
The US president said he did not have to, given he had been fully briefed on its content.
"I know everything that went on in the tape without having to hear it," he told Fox. "It was very violent, very vicious and terrible."
In his interview, President Trump said that Mohammed bin Salman had told him he had no knowledge of the killing.
"But at the same time we do have an ally and I want to stick with an ally that in many ways has been very good," he added.
what the fuck
Rejects the CIAs conclusion of the investigation
Actively rejects the proof given to him
Brilliant
The moron also said we may never know who killed Khashoggi.
remember, Trump's entire worldview is based on what he hears and sees and stuff he's been told that he agrees with. He's ignoring it on purpose
Why would he care a man was brutally murdered when there's money to be made and the guy worked for the Washington Post.
I sometimes wonder if Trump's entire MO for the presidency is predicated on just being liked. I don't think he wants to make the country better - I think he just wants to be revered by as many people as possible, hence him being so incredibly careful to not attack the alt-right amongst 9,000,000 other things.
if that's the case he probably wouldn't insult veterans as much as he does
he's probably just insane
I think he only wants to avoid listening to it because then he'll have to visualize how the blood may stain the tile. "You know, beautiful marble floor, didn’t look like it. It changed color. Became very red."
Trust me, he has no problem visualising that:

Let's not forget that he is more or less partial to the violent disposal of journalists who are critical of the government. He may as well high five Salman after acknowledging the murder.
