He going to start a war. We thought 9/11 was bad. This STUPID motherfucker is going to get a lot of people killed…..so he can build another fucking run down hotel.
Dear God, PLEASE stop his cold heart
They'd rather have us paying attention to this Gaza prank than paying attention to what they're doing to our government. It's an unimportant smokescreen.
I'm sure whatever Don says they will think is a good idea. But that's not an urgent issue, we need to keep focus on Musk basically turning our givernment over to a bunch of call center scammers.
Sure, but no country is going to take the Palestinians and Trump already said he'd be relying on other countries to fund the rebuilding which won't happen if it's not Palestinian territory any longer
Saudi Arabia already stepped in. It’s plausible that Palestinian statehood on the west bank could entice SA to support/contribute to the Gaza annexation. Before 10/7 SA and Israel were reaching an agreement.
SA leadership fears their people on this issue (the younger royals there don't give a shit about Palestine, but the older generations do and so do many in the population) and there are a lot of people there who will flip out if SA were to support the annexation of Gaza.
What if they're just doing a bunch of shitty things that they said they were going to do and there is no more deep political thought behind it than that? I don't think they care if people see what they're doing.
Both of which Trump rightly thought were terrible ideas. That is about the only thing I ever agreed with him about.
He campaigned on no more wars but cheaper eggs. Two weeks in we get pulled back into the Middle East and egg prices are up.
If his base ever hears about this they won’t be happy.
Have they forgotten about Iraq and other Arab country's nukes? I'm assuming Iraq has the nukes already. Why would the rest of Middle East allow ugly Americans taking their land? Why would any A,merican millionaires want a time share in Gaza when they could be suicide-bombed at any time?
I’m sure the israelis, who control the occupied territory and are committing genocide specifically to make room for more israelis, won’t mind giving up palestine. It’s not like their security concerns are a smokescreen for territorial claims.
Said someone who knows next to nothing about the complex and multi centuries history of the Middle East. Do people really think the solutions are this simple and if so why have they not been implemented already. Dumb dumbs.
Let’s be serious for a moment & acknowledge this isn’t going to happen. The U.S. isn’t going to take ownership of Gaza, any more than Canada will become the 51st state. Trump spouts this nonsense to distract us from actual bad stuff he’s doing, currently Musk’s lawless assault on federal agencies.
I expect you're right, and that this won't happen. However, it's such a deeply odious suggestion, many of us can't help but respond to it viscerally. And yes, it wastes our time & exhausts our attention as Felon 47 & Musk destroy the US.
Re. Canada - damn right we won't become the 51st state. 🍁
I’m sure YOU couldn’t, and I couldn’t, and anyone with a conscience couldn’t. BUT, there are millions of terrible people across the world, who would flock to ‘Trump Gaza’.
Millions of Americans will be flocking there as part of Holy Land Tours. It will be packed solid next time some bible scholar predicts the date of the Apocalypse. They will be sitting on the beach waiting for the Rapture.
But our Middle East military adventures go horribly by all those metrics, plus they are financially ruinous, disastrous for our soft power, degrade our military readiness, etc. etc.
Easy to argue against even to a profoundly evil person, one might hope.
I remember hearing a few years ago how Jared had that dream for the Gaza Rivera. Beach front destinations like Cancun to Tulum, the Mexican Rivera. Include docks for cruise ships too.
I thought I was reading an onion op-ed… just one of many observations are there many places on earth where American Soldiers stationed there would be less welcome? How does one annex Gaza? Is this how another Middle East war starts?
In the past 3 weeks, Trump keeps talking about taking over Canada, Greenland, & now Gaza. This shows his mindset- that of a colonizer, with 0 respect for the sovereignty of other nations. How’s this different from Putin taking Ukraine or Xi wanting to take over Taiwan?
I have a feeling this was pre-prepared, fill in the blank, to justify any Trump action. Let's try it!
-Greenland- will be OURS. American property. American sovereignty. An overseas territory. Not someone else's territory where we are guests. OUR property where we can enforce OUR immigration rules.
Apparently MAGAs are not just fascists, but imperialists. Whatever happened to the idea of ending wars? Yet, they are just creating another motivation for terrorists to attack Americans, while gutting the FBI AND CIA who can mitigate these attacks. This is despicable.
We need Teddy Roosevelt or his modern equivalent, and I just don’t see it in the sea of people rising up. Teddy wouldn’t have made it past the first focus group.
American Military presence will need to be sent there to support this, and it will need to be substantial presence. And guess who is now the Secretary of Defense? This will not end well.
The US (you&me) would pay for the cleanup and own land - he would lease it all with a One Dollar 99-year ground lease. It’s all just business ya know … 😏
Where does this guy live? Maybe we want his home, maybe it is in a great place, near great restaurants, or the beach! What, he doesn't want to sell? Maybe we could just take it by force and put him in some remote Alaskan town with no Internet or cell service. He will get used to it, may love it...
My God. I’ve voted for Democrats since Clinton. But I’ll be damned if I ever went along with anyone who would propose such a cockamamie idea, regardless of whether they were on “my team.” Do they have no shame? What a bunch of intellectually unmoored bootlickers.
Yet cowardly Arab-American leaders are STILL blaming Biden & Harris for not 'trying hard enough to get elected!' It's Harris' fault that the naive idiots voted for Jill Stein! These people will not even own their choices--no wonder Gaza is in the state it is.
What about America first. MAGAts and anyone who voted for this nut jobs must be the first to sacrifice their kids for the war. Of course a war Donny’s way of injecting cash into the economy (look for your taxes to go up but Elon and bros won’t pay a cent). FU TRUMP
Also, if that’s the case, why would anyone want to vacation at an “American territory” that would require heavily armored military to keep it secure 24/7 ?
I hope you’re planning on war. These people are not leaving the land easily. They will sleep in the ruins other than move from their land and their claim of Al Aqsa.
Opinion | America was founded on the idea that government derived its powers from the consent of the governed and no one should be ruled by a foreign despot Here is why America should colonize Gaza
I can't find the quote, but remember right before Iraq War a senior admin member boasting that after knocking off Baghdad the next move would be to choose to turn right (Iran) or left (Syria?)
Catastrophic, and some people want to do it again with MORE delusion beforehand?
Can't believe I'm reading this. I am ashamed of our Country. I didn't think the Maga Nazis could possibly go any lower but they have. They are already drunk on power and blood.
This Guy needs to repent to Jesus and give to the poor as penance. God is watching how the powerful go about their lives.
The Meek Shall inherit the earth.
The people of Gaza have been thru so much already without the idea of a land grab for profit.
Taking advantage of desperate people is right up Trumps alley.
Shameful and greedy.
Forgotten? No memory, because no knowledge. Even Rumsfeld tried to warn, based on the Beirut attacks, because he was there. "If you build a wall around your house to prevent truck bombs, they'll just toss a bomb over your wall." Trump didn't even know about Biden's deals with Canada and Mexico.
Brilliant move! Let's put a new American hotel in Medina, Saudi Arabia with our new sovereign wealth fund. I hear it's a huge tourist town. Very exciting! Let's have some drinks at the hotel bar to celebrate, woo hoo!
And some bacon! Let's have some alcohol, some pork, and just to be polite, let's paint some big murals depicting Muhammad! It will be great! Nothing could go wrong!
The ego that thinks that America will take over the world because they have the largest military and the richest man in the world on their side. Don't get too complacent there buddies
He could not build any infrastructure in the US during his four years, and he is gaslighted about building in Gaza. Such stupidity. The media is part of the problem. Someone should have asked him that at the press conference.
You're asking them to rebut reality and tell you it didn't happen when their clear aim was to say Trump claiming Gaza as US territory as a major escalation
Yes, I saw this exact thing on Youtube on the news reporting. Pro-maga's were like - yeah, this is the right thing to do! Ethnically cleanse the Palestinians so Trump can provide "humanitarian" care to the place by making it into the Middle East Riviera. I'm like yeah - we don't teach history.
The movie "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day" is set just as WW2 is about to take place. Miss P and her eventual love interest are older and remember WW1. They both remember how bad it was & shake their heads at the young people cheering & hoping for WW2, as if they were going to a fun sports event.
Another territory without representation where we can impose our laws (not the constitution ).
Go back to apartheid , ethnical cleaning isn’t it great !!!
That is Great America , long live our great dictator, let’s conquer the world .
America first America lonely America all over oppressing people!
🤣 yeah it will be the most violent territory we “own “ . People are stupidly going along with this nonsense the Middle East is stable we have one hostile nation there, Iran. But this will create war between 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 and 🇮🇷 🇸🇦 🇯🇴 🇱🇧 🇪🇬 🇸🇾 🇹🇷 🇵🇸 🇮🇶.
Russia will fund this and make it proxy holy war
Amazing how all these Trump cultists refuse to acknowledge the rise in terrorism such actions would lead to. Do they think missiles or bombs won't explode in a Trump building?
The problem with the Afghanistan mission was the Afghan people kept getting in the way. Trump will remove the Palestinians (read ethnically cleanse) from Gaza and avoid that detail.

Now, kids, this is what it looks like when a President is actively promoting genocide.
Your Mango Mussolini will own the world.
Glad some americans still disagree with this guy.
Nobody's fooled. None of this is a mystery. NONE. No matter how hard Zombie Fourth Estate tries to sell it as new/interesting for clicks:
Meet the new Nazis, same as the old Nazis.

That's the game.

"Trump is a dove"?
JFC... And now just like with Iraq we got people on our side saying not to take it seriously.
Just like: "Oh... We're not invading Iraq. Besides, congressional Dems wouldn't allow it..."
Lather, rinse, repeat.
Also, if that’s the case, why would anyone want to vacation at an “American territory” that would require heavily armored military to keep it secure 24/7 ?
That is an act of war against the entire globe.
What an idiot.

Wow
Okay..... I wonder if Gazans would be willing to trade places with the population of Florida.
Pure evil.
I hope the ghosts of Gaza haunt every single person who profits off of this.
California water pumps? Distraction.
Musk, a threat.

Anyway, other Arabic countries could/would bomb those hotels faster than they can be built.
Is there a corollary to Godwin’s Law where you draw an analogy to Hitler but it’s kind of an understatement?
Things are so normal and cool.
They will love us.
They can shit on what trump HASN'T done yet, but not on what Biden did.
And then scrambling to be a humanitarian in the literal final minutes of his tenure. Fuckin Biden in a nutshell.
We didn't vote for Trump's new BFF Netanyahu,and he gave HAMAS everything they wanted and then some.
"I'm a Leftist so I'll vote for centrist democrats"
Like yup if you steal another country successfully it is technically “your property”. That’s kind of the whole point. 🤦🏻♀️
But this is absolutely not that, and it's disgusting.
