  "account": "Commentary: Trump reaches the limits of his blackmailing in the Gulf states\n\nDonald Trump revels in the pose of the great patriarch, swaggering with the cane in hand and surrounded by vast wealth. He praises when the younger generation behaves properly, and draws the whip when they do not. And because he is the American president, he does not do it in a whisper, but in such a way that everyone hears. Yes, he does wish for that. His latest thug is Oman. He will bomb the beautiful country from top to bottom if it gets in the way of negotiating a good deal with Iran. He has already done so to this Iran. His leadership he described as reasonable, talking to them was possible. But then he called them crazy bastards. About the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, Trump said: \"He didn't think he had to grovel before me, but now he has to.\" At another time, he called the strong man of the kingdom, whom the CIA attributes responsibility for the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, a strong, well-looking type.",
