President Trump says the US will take over the Gaza Strip WASHINGTON — President Trump proposed a US takeover of the Gaza Strip Tuesday — shortly after proposing removing “all” Palestinians living there.

“The US will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it too,” Trump said at a press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

“We’ll own it and be responsible for dismantling all of the dangerous unexploded bombs and other weapons on the site, level the site, and get rid of the destroyed buildings — level it out and create an economic development that will supply unlimited numbers of jobs and housing for the people of the area.”

Trump said that the roughly 2 million Gaza Strip residents would be relocated to neighboring countries.

“Just can’t go back. If you go back, it’s going to end up the same way it has for 100 years,” he said at the press conference.

Trump said he would deploy US troops to the territory “if it’s necessary.”

Did we take over any land in the Marshall Plan??

We occupied Germany after WW 2 along with our allies. This will be the similar.

EVERY middle Eastern nation refuses to take them in... they all know what that population has become... it's going to take a lot of wheeling and dealing and sticks and carrots to pull this one off.

I've always opposed the fawning folks here who say he's the best President ever... Washington is forever #1, because of what he did, and what he turned down...

But by gumbo, if Pres Trump keeps up this pace, he might just solidify the #2 spot forever... and Jefferson is not an easy beat.

It would be in our own best interest to keep in mind...President Trump is 12 steps ahead of the rest of us.

Heads are exploding everywhere. Liberal tears are flowing freely.

Donald Trump is a national treasure.

NO WE WON’T!

Trump is negotiating. He has zero interest in doing this. All of Canada will not be the 51st state. He never had any interest in that. Trump will bankrupt every North American consumer with tariffs Trump knew he would never have to implement. He was negotiating!

Geesh! It’s not rocket science. It’s how Trump negotiates EVERY time.

Wow! Didn’t see that one coming. Goodbye Hamas, turn the place into someplace peaceful, useful, and prosperous. Sounds good to me. I wouldn’t doubt in 5 years there’s a Trump resort there, on the shore.

We’re going to help Israel “build back better” in the area.

I'd rather we "build back better" in North Carolina, or LA.

We and Israel will buy an island somewhere in the South Pacific.

No. Don’t like it. That is Israeli ground. This sounds like a feature of the apocalypse.

Trump’s priority is the United States above all. However, we have the strength to help both, we always have. The previous globalist administrations chose to ignore and punish the American people...that isn’t Trump or his team or the eventual administration of J.D. Vance.

No.
Just let Israel reclaim it.
Send the Pali’s to Iran.
This is called the KISS principle, which I would have expected to see in action here.

THAT’S why he wants Greenland!!!! LOL!! Actually, for a split second I thought, “Hey, maybe.” But I don’t want those crazy people any closer to the US. That’s a toxic culture.
