General John Kelly: "He said that, in his opinion, Mr. Trump met the definition of a fascist, would govern like a dictator if allowed, and had no understanding of the Constitution or the concept of rule of law."

ARE YOU READY FOR AMERICA TO BE AN OCCUPYING FORCE AGAIN?





NYTimes: "Key Middle East partners and European leaders swiftly opposed President Trump’s idea to force Palestinians out of Gaza and make it a U.S. territory. 

Experts said the plan would violate international law."

(Reminder:  Trump is a convicted felon and adjudicated sexual assaulter. He doesn't care about "law," Constitutional or international, if it gets in his way.) 

"Trump has cast himself as a 'uniter,' and indeed on Wednesday, President Trump brought together allies and adversaries around the world in opposition to his proposal to take over the Gaza Strip and eject its two million Palestinian residents to neighboring countries. 

Not only did Mr. Trump’s suggestion that the war-torn enclave could become a 'Riviera of the Middle East' alarm leaders and politicians from China to Canada, it also threatened a years long U.S. ambition to broker normalized diplomatic relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia." --NYTimes





IMO, no informed American believes for a minute that Trump's major concern is relocating the Palestinians from Gaza to other countries for a better life. 









 



Comments made by businessman Jared Kushner about the potential value of "waterfront property" in Gaza have been reposted on social media after his father-in-law, President Trump, suggested the U.S. could "take over" and "own" the war-torn territory on Tuesday. 

Trump made the remarks during a press conference on Tuesday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington D.C. News site Puck's senior correspondent Tara Palmeri reported, citing an unnamed source, that Kushner was "behind" Trump's proposal that the U.S. take control of Gaza. 

 Newsweek has not verified this and contacted Kushner for comment via an email to Kushner Companies outside regular office hours. The real estate firm was founded by his father Charles Kushner though he has been actively involved.

Believe it or not, just because people aren’t living in luxury, it doesn’t mean they WANT to. I learned this traveling to different countries where it is a choice to live minimally. We are going in to change an entire culture which is so unbelievably unethical and narcissistic. And illegal!

As the MAGA sheeple, White Supremacists, and X'tian Nationalists hug their $59.99 Trump bible, wave the flag, and sing the narcissist fascist Felon's praises.

The morons of MAGA et all own this lock, stock, and barrel.

Think Tibet, before the Chinese invaded their nation and usurped their sovereignty. Poor people who were happier, more compassionate, loving, and emotionally more intelligent than this nation has ever been.

All they see is beachfront property to consume and develop. Any other concerns would have to move way up to even be "secondary."

Taxpayers build it, US troops guard it, Trump and cronies make all the money.

Also, Countries don't have "ownership positions" in the territories of other countries. But Trump doesn’t care about “ niceties” like that.

Bingo bluzdude. Absolutely spot on. The FOTUS's government is of, by, and for the billionaires and oligarchs.

Stonekettle: Trump's Gaza plan is to round up the survivors, march them across country to some desolate place in a foreign land, and then take their property for "redevelopment."

Who came up with this, the Bureau of Indian Affairs?

If Trump offers you blankets, make sure you've got your smallpox vaccination.

Where is the scotus on the FOTUS's illegal domestic and planned illegal international actions?

Crafting a justification for the illlegality of his actions?

Can't help but wonder.
