...then why doesn't it extend to Saudi Arabia? I know, it's a bit of a rhetorical question, but Saudi terrorists have murdered several thousand Americans on US soil, whereas Somali terrorists have murdered zero there.

That is an excellent phrase. I'm almost surprised I haven't seen it on a placard yet.

And, as much as I personally dislike the Saudis, they do seem to be working to prevent their own nationals from engaging in terror. I recall how in the six months or so after 9/11, there were always little articles buried deeply in the news about how this or that Saudi prince had drowned in his pool, had died in a car crash, had had a heart attack,etc. You couldn't go a week without reading about a dead Saudi prince. The one that impressed me the most was the announcement that so-and-so had become lost in the desert, and died of thirst.

I tend to think, whatever he's actually said on the subject, that he'll do one term, and then not run again. The ferocious way he's attacking problems tends to confirm me in my belief. He's working like a man who intends to get everything done right up front. I can't see him having much interest in being President after he's gotten all the dramatic and world-shaking stuff done. He's not the administrative type.
Pence as President is an ever-looming nightmare, yes. I think still that Trump added him as a "poison pill" to keep anyone to his left from supporting a possible impeachment. I suppose the one consolation of him becoming POTUS would be to hear the screams of horror from the Democrats.
^1 Reagan, frankly, always looked dead and embalmed to me. That, or some demonically-possessed waxwork come to life.
