First it wasĀ buy Greenland, thenĀ make Canada a state. Now Donald Trump wants to own the Gaza Strip.

The President proposed on Tuesday that the U.S. should ā€œownā€ the Gaza Strip, ā€œlevel the siteā€ and develop it, explicitly calling for displacing 2 million Palestinians from their homeland as the regionā€™s leaders struggle to maintain a fragile ceasefire.

During a wide-ranging press conference with Israelā€™s Prime MinisterĀ Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump laid out a sweeping plan for the U.S. to colonize Gaza and build resorts there. ā€œI donā€™t want to be cute. I donā€™t want to be a wise guy, butā€”the Riviera of the Middle East. This could be so magnificent,ā€ Trump said.
