"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. "

    A man like Trump only gets more unhinged as tie goes by and his increasingly insane behavior goes unchecked. We utterly failed to stop him in the US. Having completely conquered America he is now setting his sights on the World. If he knew history I wouldn’t be surprised to hear him comparing himself to Alexander the Great.

    His past aversion to military adventures in the Middle East was literally the only thing I appreciated about him, but now that’s gone by the wayside.

    Buckle up, world… Don’t underestimate him.
