Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, April 22, 2026

Donald Trump is considering a financial bailout for the United Arab Emirates (UAE), an autocratic state experiencing a severe economic downturn due to the illegal and costly US war against the people of Iran which is being fought on behalf of Israel. If the Trump administration does use public resources to rescue the UAE, it will be assisting a non-democratic country that has partnered extensively with the Trump Organization and members of the Trump Crime Family (TCF).

"Trumpf junta apparatchiks appear to be open to the idea of giving away hardworking American taxpayer dollars to fat-cat oil oligarchs in the Middle East. National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett, one of Dummkopf Trumpf's idiotic economic advisors bleated:

"The UAE has been an incredibly valuable ally throughout this effort, and I'm sure the good-for-nothing multimillionaire hypocritical homosexual Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will make every effort to help out the wealthy oligarchs in the UAE with American taxpayer dollars should that be necessary."

The UAE has not been that helpful. In January 2026, the UAE announced that it will not allow "its airspace, territory, or territorial waters be used for any hostile military actions against Iran."
