Either Trump was too lazy to review what his own CIA determined about Khashoggi's murder before meeting again with MBS, or he knew and is deliberately defending the murderer, MBS, because he has business dealings with him.
Either explanation points to Trump's ever-present cupidity in all his dealings with foreign leaders.
"A declassified U.S. intelligence report released in February 2021 indicated that the CIA concluded with high confidence that Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) approved the operation targeting journalist Jamal Khashoggi in Istanbul in October 2018.
This assessment was based on several factors, including MBS's control over security and intelligence, and the involvement of his advisers and personal protective detail. The report also suggested MBS viewed Khashoggi as a threat and supported violence against dissidents."
