  1. USA is trying to set as they represent a perfect morality. U guys use sports washing to avoid focusing on school shooting, police brutality against black people, targeting minority, inforce LGBT agendas on kids, increasing poverty, health issues, and the list goes on. You leave that n talk about Saudi???? How hypocrite are you.. we are living our Saudi dream right now not the American dream. We are standing with our government. Much love to king Salman and MBS❤❤❤ 🇸🇦 🇸🇦 🇸🇦 🇸🇦 🇸🇦 🇸🇦 🇸🇦 🇸🇦
