Why do Democrats care more about Khashoggi than they did about Mollie Tibbetts?

Who cares......for a thousand, Alex.

The OP cares
He asked why there is not the same level of outrage over Mollie Tibbets

People get outraged over abuse of power by a government. When it includes kidnap, torture and murder......it becomes international news

The murderer of Mollie Tibbets was captured and will face decades in prison

It looks like those who ordered the killing of Khashoggi will get off Scott free......hence the outrage
Those that ordered it are most likely in Riyhad, please make all inquiries and protests there.
I am sure they will promptly deal with your outrage.
Which is what we want done

Make Riyhad pay for its abuses

Again....wrong. The left never cared about the abuses at benghazi. Faux outrage.....noted and then laughed at.
Again wrong. We cared very much. We wanted to know what happened, could it have been prevented was anyone criminally responsibke and most important, how can it be prevented in the future.

That isnt what the right cared about. All they cared about was how to use it as a political attack. You think I am wrong? Compare the degree of attention and politicizing spent on Benghazi and the amount soent on the embassy/consular attacks under Bush. At that time, we were unified in outrage and the investigstions were not politically motivated.

I don't think the left ever cared. They tried to blame the whole thing on a grainy video but decided they'd go get them a ringleader and all would be forgotten. The left spent four years politicizing bush war. I don't see anything wrong with that or repubs blasting dems for their inactions in benghazi.
 
The OP presents a false premise. There was quite a bit of interest in Molly Tibbets during her disappearance up until that disappearance was resolved. We know what awaits the perpetrator of her murder. There yet are many unknown issues about the journalist's death. The story presented by the Saudis seems far fetched, where is the body, what is a proper response by the Turks and Americans?

The outrage is over abuse of official power to kill a man who dared to criticize the Government

The Bush wars deserved to be politicized
They were wrong and resulted in 8000 deaths
 
The Liberal media and Democrats are calling for Saudi heads....they’re absolutely livid and outraged about this FOREIGNERS death which happened on FOREIGN soil.
Remember, the Tibbetts murder couldn’t be swept under the rug fast enough by the same groups. Weird huh?
I hope Republican politicians running for office are paying attention and adding shit like this to their campaign narratives.
Tibbets was a tragedy for a family.
Kashoggi is a tragedy for the nation.

WTF....haha, are you serious?
That’s the spin?
You sure you want to roll with that shit?
Freedom of the press is vital to a free country.

Yes, I know you don't really want a free country but the rest of us do.

Haha...is this shit all new to you or something?
You didn’t know that people considered to be propagandists by foreign governments are killed daily? Where have you been bud?
And this means it's ok?

He was killed in a pisshole Middle East country by a barbaric backwards Middle East country, neither of which has a free press.

Trying to pin this on America or Trump is simply weak and pathetic.
He made it seem ok to you. That's the problem.

Standard operating procedure of the region.
Send your outrage here where it belongs...
Embassy of Saudi Arabia in Ankara, Turkey

Maybe ask them about women's rights and gays while your at it.

Former DEA and FBI associate Robert Levinson apparently went missing in Iran in 2007. Obama could have demanded an account of his whereabouts when he showered two freaking billion dollars on the regime but he was afraid to anger them. Nobody in the criminal conspiracy in the MSM seemed interested. Obama could have demanded that Cuba turn over convicted Cop killer Joanne Chesimard when he opened relations with Cuba but he was afraid and the criminal conspiracy in the MSM wasn't interested.
 
If President Trump abdicated in favor of the liberals this morning, no one would care about Khashoggi on Monday.

This is all about trying to embarrass the President, not because any liberal gives a shit about this character one way or another.

You didn't hear anything about the Norks and US resident and citizen Otto Warmbier during the Obama Regime. Obama didn't care less, and figured it was Un's business.
If Trump abdicated to liberals, we would not be running interference for the Saudi Royal Family and making excuses for torture and murder

We would also not be running a smear campaign against the victim

Actually, this whole story would be forgotten instantly if Donaldus left the scene. We didn't hear about anything bad about the Saudis when Obama was prostating himself to the Saudi monarch, kissing his feet. There wouldn't have been a story here at all, if Trump wasn't around to smear.
What atrocities did the Saudis commit while the Great Obama was President?



Plenty of atrocities, as documented in wikipedia- and Obama did not cut off relations with them. In fact, little was said about it by the media.

The idea here isn't what happened to Khashoggi, the libs could care less. But instead its about trying to make President Trump look bad.

President Trump is making himself look bad by excusing torture and murder
When did he excuse torture and murder?
 
it sets a precedent for future actions if nothing is done. Kashoggi was a legal US resident who's children are US citizens. He was a dissudent and a journalist. As a nation we have typically opposed killing and jailing political dissidents and imposed sanctions, or ither actions. Now, under the Trump regime, we instead smear the victim and reward the agresser.

A lot of people DO care, but you're right it is being emphasized so much to make Trump look bad.
We have to care when a major player like Saudi Arabia does this to one of its citizens. We can't just shrug and say "Oh well." There has to be SOMETHING of a response, if it's only a mean tweet.

Unfortunately, he is doing that with each moment that he "pretends" to believe the Saudis' latest lie for what happened.

What further judgment is there going to be? The Saudis have completed their "investigation," have arrested 18 people for it, and have given their explanation to the world. Full Stop.
And the President says, "Sounds good to me."

Kashoggi was a two face who infused his Sharia laden dialogue with words like democracy and progress. It got his stuff printed. However the real message was quite ugly.

Beneath that smile was a fundamentalist monstrosity who was an advocate for a Global caliphate, Had Strong ties to Isis,
And was a long-standing member of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Not an American citizen, not an American sympathizer, not even a free choice sympathizer.

His differences with the Crown Prince oddly placed him in the role of conservative... Iranian Style... versus the more Progressive views of the Crown Prince.

There is some question as to whether or not the squad of Assassins that was sent to Turkey were actually sanctioned by the Crown Prince.

Having said all of this the question remains: why the hell should we care about any of it?

This really is none of our business. As far as Turkey is concerned however it's a different story.... This murder was committed within the borders of their Nation. It would be altogether fitting for them to investigate and to prosecute.
