“The Trump Administration’s repugnant response to the Jamal Khashoggi disappearance has further diminished America’s moral standing in defense of human rights and press freedoms. By refusing to consider canceling arms sales to Saudi Arabia, Trump has basically put a price tag on our nation’s moral credibility. Similarly, Trump’s ugly comments at a political rally last night not only defended, but encouraged criminal, physical violence against journalists. This outrageous and dangerous behavior will further endanger the ability of a free press to do a job that is absolutely essential to a functioning democracy. Patriotic Americans of all political stripes must come together to defend democracy and human rights against Donald Trump.”
