I know it's fun to use this sort of thing to bag on the Saudis and on Trump, and I'm a fan of neither, but just wanted to point out that this kind of thing is pretty common.
It's just a food truck. Sure it's a bit bigger than your average food truck, but that are catering to larger crowds. I've seen these at events across Europe, and in Australia. I'm sure there's plenty trundling around the States as well.
By Saudis do you mean all 25 million citizens or just the government?
I did mean the government, and by Trump I meant the current administration under Trump.
But now you mention it, I can't think of a single Saudi person I'm a fan of, despite working there on and off for some time.
