First it wasĀ buy Greenland, thenĀ make Canada a state. Now Donald Trump wants to own the Gaza Strip.
The President proposed on Tuesday that the U.S. should āownā the Gaza Strip, ālevel the siteā and develop it, explicitly calling for displacing 2 million Palestinians from their homeland as the regionās leaders struggle to maintain a fragile ceasefire.
During a wide-ranging press conference with Israelās Prime MinisterĀ Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump laid out a sweeping plan for the U.S. to colonize Gaza and build resorts there. āI donāt want to be cute. I donāt want to be a wise guy, butāthe Riviera of the Middle East. This could be so magnificent,ā Trump said.

So uh, this is literally what I have said would happen for like a year. Every single time someone tried to use the bLuE MAgA line on me since Oct 7 went down, I pointed out that Trump would do precisely this: just send more weapons (and maybe even direct air strikes from the USN and USAF), level it, and build Trump Tower Gaza on the ānewly unoccupiedā beachfront. Every fucking time I mentioned this, I got shouted down.
Of course you did, you alarmist you! Somehow when the dots that make up a connect-the-dots image are so close together you donāt need to complete it, people get upset that you āspoiledā it
