It's more like "people find it easier to rely on the experts inside and outside of government who say North Korea has not yet developed an ICBM capable of reaching the continental U.S. with a nuke", instead of relying on your opinion.
Opinion haha.

The bolded sentence is still mighty dumb. The Saudis would never bomb us nor does anyone with an ounce of common sense think that's why the president "bows down" to them. The president bows down to the military industrial complex which have long decided that the Saudis are an important ally. It's a steady cash flow and for the most part they peddle our foreign policy in the region. More importantly they oppose our nemesis Iran so of course we support them.
We're way better off allying with Iran honestly. They're more rational than the Saudis. The only reason we opted for Saudi > Iran is because of oil. The vast majority of terrorist events are Sunni, not Shia.
