It's not about religion, as the article is clear that Trump wants to make it about... it's about territory and resources...

Yeah, I dunno about that. According to the Wikipedia article, Amnesty International estimates 20K of the Boko Haram religious wackos are roaming around looking to start an Islamic Caliphate. But the press has a hard time admitting that some religions are more prone to violence than others, so they whitewash it.
Anyhow, reminds me of this popular (in Nigeria) joke a Nigerian coworker told me many years ago:
God was distributing gifts to all the nations of the world.
To America, God gave advanced technology and innovation.
To Europe, God gave beautiful landscapes and strong institutions.
To Asia, God gave a large, industrious population.
Then God came to Africa, and God gave Nigeria abundant crude oil, fertile land, vast mineral wealth, a beautiful climate, and all manner of other natural resources.
An angel noticed how much God was giving to Nigeria and asked, "Lord, aren't you being too generous with Nigeria? You've given them everything!"
God looked at the angel with a smile and replied, "Wait until I tell you about the people I'm putting there."
More TACO?
There's a next-to-zero chance that Trump would do anything that might actually help Black people. Even if he got over his own racism, the GOP wouldn't stand for it.
