Trump's 10 whispered words to Saudi crown prince exposed by lip reading expert

Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman arrived in Washington for a rare White House meeting with President Trump, marking one of the most high-profile state visits of Trump’s second term. The event was staged with lavish ceremony on the South Lawn, complete with a military band, a procession, and even a flyover of F-35 and F-15 fighter jets.

According to reports highlighted by Express US, a professional lip reader observed the brief exchange between Trump and the crown prince. Her interpretation suggests Trump warmly welcomed him with comments about how different the setting looked compared to previous visits, while pointing out the elaborate display arranged for his arrival.

This visit is particularly notable because it is Prince Mohammed’s first trip to the White House since the 2018 murder of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi a killing that U.S. intelligence agencies concluded he likely approved, a claim he has repeatedly denied. Despite the unresolved controversy, both governments used the meeting to signal a renewed push for deeper military, economic, and political cooperation.

The timing of the visit is no coincidence. It came just one day after Trump announced his approval of a major arms deal involving advanced F-35 fighter jets for Saudi Arabia. The White House entrance was lined with a long red carpet and rows of U.S. military personnel holding Saudi flags, underscoring how important this partnership remains for both sides.

Inside the Oval Office, the talks reportedly centered on security guarantees, access to emerging AI technologies, and ongoing discussions about a civilian nuclear program. Trump publicly thanked the crown prince for committing to massive U.S. investments, joking that the $600 billion figure might even climb toward $1 trillion. Prince Mohammed responded by emphasizing Saudi Arabia’s confidence in America’s economic future and reaffirmed plans for long-term investment.

The visit illustrates how Washington and Riyadh are attempting to strengthen ties despite lingering global scrutiny, especially over human rights concerns and regional instability. As always, the geopolitical stakes from defense contracts to energy markets remain enormous.
