Honestly, if there's one royal family that I wish had a little more influence over US politics, it's the Qataris. Still doesn't bode well how openly corrupt he is, as stupid as he is it does show how confident they are that no one will stop them.

Why would you want the Qatari royal family to have more influence over US politics?

It might help to have some influencers who aren't genocidal wackos.

Yeah the Qataris might be a little more progressive as far as their stranglehold on other Qataris goes but they've done some pretty horrific things to people who aren't. The whole world cup stadium construction thing is pretty abhorrent.
