Crown Prince Mocks Biden As Mentally Challenged Amid Crashing US-Saudi Relations Just when you thought the Saudis couldn't humiliate the Biden administration any more, the Wall Street Journal reports that Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman is reportedly talking massive trash about the US president behind closed doors. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the kingdom’s 37-year-old day-to-day ruler, mocks President Biden in private, making fun of the 79-year-old’s gaffes and questioning his mental acuity, according to people inside the Saudi government. He has told advisers he hasn’t been impressed with Mr. Biden since his days as vice president, and much preferred former President Donald Trump, the people said. -WSJ What ever would give MbS that impression? Then, after refusing to speak with MbS for over a year (teleprompter issues?), Saudi officials present at a July meeting in Jeddah indicated that Biden clearly didn't want to be there, and was not interested in policy discussions. As the Journal further notes, the US-Saudi relationship has been strained for years, but the animosity between Biden and MbS has 'deepened the tension, and it is likely to get only messier.' "Rarely has the chain of broken expectations and perceived insults and humiliations been greater than they are now," said veteran US Middle East diplomat Aaron David Miller, who now works at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. "There’s almost no trust and absolutely no mutual respect." In perhaps the biggest 'f-you' to the Biden administration, the Saudis led OPEC+ in a production cut despite the US asking them to delay the decision until after midterms - which the Saudis revealed in a scathing letter nearly two weeks ago.

And according to Steven Cook, a Middle East expert with the CFR, "When you’re dealing with a country that’s basically run by five people, it has to be on a personal level."
