Summary
Trump reiterated his proposal for the U.S. to take over Gaza after Israel’s military campaign, despite backlash from Republicans, international leaders, and human rights groups.
The plan, announced without consulting aides or conducting feasibility studies, suggests relocating Palestinians and rebuilding Gaza as a tourist hub.
The White House attempted damage control, calling relocation “temporary,” but concerns persist over the plan’s implications and potential for escalating regional tensions.
“Mr Trump there are those that say your only motivation for this is to enrich yourself, how do you respond?”
“Of course the lying crooked media would say that I am going to enrich myself. Is my name Donald Trump Jr? There’s no Jr in my name so obviously I’m not the corrupt one here!”
