In a breathtaking display of headshaking ignorance of what is really going on in The Middle East, Trump has stated that he would consider stopping purchases of Saudi oil if...and get this...Saudi Arabia doesn't invade Syria to take out Daesh!!
AN EPIC, EPIC AND VERY DANGEROUS FAIL!!
WTF are he and Alex Jones discussing? Three months ago Trump appeared on Infowhores and Jones and Trump agreed that they would be speaking to each other a lot.
It is Saudi Arabia who unleashed the terrorists onto Syria in the first place! This was reported years before it happened by Seymour Hersh in an article entitled The Direction which was published in The New Yorker Magazine in March 2007.
Syria does not need Saudi troops on Syrian soil. Syria needs the USA to stop its support of Daesh and to force nations like Saudi Arabia to stop their support of Daesh too, and then to provide assistance (logistics, intelligence, weapons, etc) to Syria to defeat Daesh and then finance for the reconstruction of Syria.
Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump has said he would consider stopping US oil purchases from Saudi Arabia and other Arab allies unless the Saudi government provide troops to fight Islamic State.
Trump made the comments in a lengthy foreign policy interview published by the New York Times on Saturday in response to a question about whether, if elected president, he would halt oil purchases from US allies unless they provided on-the-ground forces against Islamic State.

“The answer is, probably yes,” Trump said, according to a transcript.
