We all saw this coming when Trump bragged about his multi-hundred billion dollar arms deal with the Saudis, shortly after taking office.

I hate to say it, but the U.S. has sadly been complicit in what has been described as the world's worst humanitarian crisis in Yemen.
In May, Trump signs a "tremendous" $110B arms deal with Saudi Arabia. #YEMEN

In December, it's being described as a genocide... #YEMEN

Later in December, reporting shows how the Saudi air campaign targets Yemen's food supplies. #YEMEN
This June, the U.S. considers widening its role... #YEMEN
#FTR: The Obama Administration also sold $115B in arms to Saudi Arabia.

HOWEVER, as the death toll and human rights violations in the Saudi-led war on Yemen began to rise dramatically, Obama BLOCKED precision-guided munitions.

Trump overturned it. #YEMEN
