... The president says ...
Pres Trump says a lot of things.
But he also prevaricates.
A Lot.
So, what to believe?

Not a word that comes out of Lewzer's mouth. I'm sure he thinks "Trump Strip" has a nice ring to it though.

"I do see a long-term ownership position, and I see it bringing great stability to that part of the Middle East, and maybe the entire Middle East," Trump said.
Asked if U.S. troops would be deployed to take over Gaza, Trump said that "we'll do what's necessary. ... We'll take it over and develop it."
Netanyahu said that he was open to the idea.
"He sees a different future for that piece of land," Netanyahu said of Trump's proposal for the United States to take over Gaza.
"It's worth paying attention to this. We're talking about it," he added. "It's something that could change history."

Sure, it made sense for them to vote Trump. Trump made it very clear he would take the side of Israel and help resolve the "Palestinian Problem."
Muslims supporting Trump/attacking Kamala? Makes less sense. Or about as much sense as attacking a music festival full of kids and raping and murdering 1,200 civilian men, women, and children. So at least, they're consistent in the level of their logic and reasoning.

This is absurd and should be the top story on the front page. So we're just going to move in to Gaza like we own the place and kick out all the Palestinians? I'm sure that's gonna go really well.
I can just imagine all the enraged ex-residents committing to a lifelong vow of vengeance on the occupiers as Trump, Netanyahu and Musk try to rebuild a destroyed piece of "real estate" in the Middle East as a glitzy vacation destination of their own sleazy specifications. Sounds like a long and bitter conflict just got turned up about 10 notches.
This criminal administration is completely out of control and needs to be stopped.

Trump said he'll move them elsewhere. Antarctica is spacious. Some islands in the Pacific also free for habitation, at least until sea level rise takes them.

I heard Trumpy on the news today rambling incoherently about America "fixing" Gaza by "taking over" and "leveling it" and move (deport?) the current residents to neighboring countries.
He thinks he is gonna rebuild Gaza. Obviously he didn't learn a damn thing from Iraq. America is apparently not good at country building.
First has any of these countries agree to do any of this?
And second who is paying for all this?
And do they really think Hamas is just going to let Trumpy do anything he wants in Gaza ?
So Trumpy's not only gonna start mass deportations here in America but in other countries too, now?

Arabs are on the bottom of the pyramid in Israel and the US. Why? What does Hamas have to do with the hardworking American taxpayer in Chicago, NYC, LA, Atlanta, Boise, Seattle, Newark, St Louis, or Portsmouth? Who benefits from Arab bashing in the US and ethnic cleansing in Gaza and the West Bank?
US aid to Israel from 1951 to 2022 totaled $317.9 billion, making it the largest recipient of American foreign aid since World War II.

Trump: US Should Own Gaza
What does he mean by "Own Gaza"? Does he mean own the responsibility to recruit investors and manage the redevelopment/resettlement of Gaza -or- make it a US Territory -or- something entirely different?
How much American money will be used to refinance the redevelopment? How can the US afford to do such a thing when, according to conservatives, we already have more debt than we should?
How are the Palestinians going to respond when they have no place to go? Are they going to limit their attacks to Israel or bring the battle to the US?
I thought MAGA voters were tired of foreign entanglements. This would be one helluva entanglement and for what purpose? I guess they would try to justify it on religious grounds?

OK.
Donald is mentally ill. Badly mentally ill. Insane.
He is a genuinely disordered human being who is behaving like a man with a serious diagnosis.
We know what powerful people like this do from history.
There will be blood.
Just the truth.
There will be war and there will be persecutions. Not just persecutions some think are justified, like the migrants.
It's time to seriously consider what it means to have delusions. What it means to have a delusional man in charge of this country. A delusional man with a vindictive, vicious streak.
It's past time to consider all of Donald's behaviors and decisions through the lense of his gross mental illness.
I think that a good recent example is what he did to California's water. Frankly, I think that his "bargaining" with Canad and Mexico is another.
Maybe ZATOICHI had the right idea in dying early. We're all (yes, and you MAGA) going to go through some things.

Trump is calling for US occupation of foreign territory and genocide against the Palestinian people and some still cry when he's compared to Hitler.

Donald has the same mental illness that Hitler did. His behavior is logically expected to resemble Hitler's.
#36 | Posted by Zed at 2025-02-05 09:12 AM | Reply
What gives a bit of "hope" here is that Hitler was a talented man willing to surround himself with other talented men.
Whereas Donald is a goof too threatend by talent to have ought but goof around him.
Maybe we'll get some sort of break from all this because of that.
Not with Disaster first, I think.

Wait. This is not what we agreed to. We voted for this man Trump! And now this betrayal! --Suckered residents of Dearborn, Michigan

#40 Past Behavior doesn't Always predict future behavior.
A person can be a lawful gun owner for years and then shoot up a school or office.
Just because he has backed off in the past doesn't mean he will every time.
When someone credibly threatens your family,do you assume he's kidding?
Why do you assume Trump won't do any of these crazy things?
Are you MAGA? Down with the idea of using Government as a Weapon. On enemies internal and external?
I think you are Too Smart by Half.
Trump is a Lawless and Unstable person,given Absolute Power.
The SCOTUS has even codified his IMPUNITY.
But you in your great wisdom proclaim this without danger or reason for concern.
I think that's Foolish at best.

The "wild ----" is a symptom. Yes, there is a pattern of "wild ----". Time to ask, and ask seriously, why?
Interesting that, this very day, Donald is gutting out intelligence and counter-terrorism abilities at the same time his "wild ----" is making America and Americans more of a target.

Trump must be the gold standard for ignorance combined with hubris mixed with arrogance and rampant stupidity. This just may be the worst idea I've heard from a chronological adult, ever. If Trump, his kids, and grandkids head up the effort, on the ground, out in the open? Their absence might constitute a tiny upside, but still not completely insane. Totalamente.

Oh I am definitely detecting a pattern. They're throwing everything ... every crazy idea they have ever had (and even ones he thinks of during his stream of consciousness ramblings) at the American "wall" and see what sticks.
When you do a "shock and awe" not all the missiles hit their targets or are effective. But the overall effect is overwhelming. And disruptive. Leaving the defenders scrambling to figure out where to concentrate their defensive efforts.

There is a difference though. I get the impression that Vance has to make an effort to say stupid stuff. With Trump, it just comes naturally. He can't help himself.

Just Jack @jack-e-smith.bsky.social There are two immutable facts when it comes to Trump.
1. Every accusation is a confession
2. Every wild assertion is a distraction

Well, by that standard the only criterion for Donald being crazy is biting the heads off chickens.
He's already done the equivalent of that, of course. More than once.
Or maybe you don't recall the bleach thing? As one example?
That got real Americans killed. More than a few.

It can be both a real threat and a distraction, all while the coup continues.
