Trump Falsely Claims He Was in Gaza

Wednesday, October 09, 2024

Donald Trump's truthfulness as well as his knowledge of Middle East geography has come under fresh scrutiny after the former president claimed to have been to Gaza -- although there is no evidence of him ever visiting the war-torn Palestinian territory.

Trump Now Claims He Was in Gaza

I think this is like when he fought in Vietnam ("Trump Once Said Avoiding STDs in the '80s Was 'His Personal Vietnam'" www.msn.com ).

"I once got falafel with hummus at a deli in Brooklyn. It was the best anyone had ever seen. They said 'Sir! You eat that hummus better than you eat your daughter's kitty in your dreams! You really chow down! God bless you Sir!' And that was my trip to Gaza. Make America senile again!"

"Gazans struggled to access adequate safe water even before the current crisis.

About 90 percent of Gaza's water supply comes from the Coastal Aquifer Basin, which runs along the eastern Mediterranean coast from Egypt through Gaza and into Israel.

However, the water is brackish and contaminated due to seawater intrusion, overextraction, and sewage and chemical infiltration."

He doesn't even have to try to be stupid, apparently it comes naturally.

"I've been there, and it's rough. It's a rough place ... before all of the attacks and before the back and forth what's happened over the last couple of years."

The fkg brain worms are a bitch.

Are he and Kennedy sharing a brain worm?

"Gaza? Gaza's just the start. Why, I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. How about those Costa Rican attack-tack-tack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion? Bigger than Sinatra and the whole damn Rat Pack. But wait, there's more. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to ... say, is that a hamburger on your plate? And chocolate cake?"

That's what some people are saying he's garbling. Sad..

Re 11

Who let the poop fly in here?

"Oh, there's a fly. Oh, I wonder where the fly came from. See, two years ago, I wouldn't have had a fly up here. You're changing rapidly. We can't take it any longer ... "

Trump's mind has been taking a lot of side trips for quite a while. It comes with his age.

He was probably in Gaza the same day he was helping with hurricane cleanup. ..Throwing paper towels on both occasions.

Not even Bellringer can make up a lie or deflection to give Trump cover on this one.
