"On Tuesday, at a stunning joint press conference alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump announced the US will be taking over and running Gaza, potentially for the foreseeable future.

“Everybody I’ve spoken to loves the idea of the United States owning that piece of land, developing and creating thousands of jobs with something that will be magnificent,” Trump told reporters after a three-hour meeting with Netanyahu. "

    Called it. Good job to the idiots who voted for this or didn’t vote at all and allowed Trump to win. Nice work.

    Cool, I’m sure the rest of America will still get no apology from the people that kept telling us Kamala/Biden were jUsTaSbAD. So he’s going to be incredibly worse not just on Israel, but far worse in every other fucking single way.

    Thanks guys!

    I want to see the convoluted logic the mental gymnasts who pushed forth against voting for Biden so Trump wouldn’t get elected on issues like Palestine come up with. It’s an art.

    I’m certain this was exactly Kamala’s plan. She never said the magic combination of words that means she believes exactly what I want her to believe, so obviously this would have happened either way.
