Neither ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel nor Comedy Central’s The Daily Show host-of-the-week Ronny Chieng are foreign policy experts, but on Tuesday, they did try to play one on TV. As President Trump welcomed Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to the White House, Kimmel suggested it was all part of a get-rich-quick scheme involving Eric and Don Jr. while Chieng suggested it was part of Trump’s Saudi Arabia First policy.

Earlier, on The Daily Show, Chieng was showing a newfound respect for Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene amid her transformation from Trump fan to Trump critic, “And how dare she? How dare she imply that Trump serves foreign countries? The president is out here every day thinking about America first.”
Following a brief clip from Fox Business’s Liz Claman, Chieng continued, “Okay, look, sometimes America First means Saudi Arabia First. But so what? He rolled out the red carpet for MBS. It's not like Trump is endorsing everything he's done.”
