Interview with Trump. Excerpt on developing Gaza:
quote
HH: Now Mr. President, you’re a developer, so I want to talk to you about Gaza. I worked with land use developers for 35 years when I was actively practicing law.
DT: Right.
HH: You know how to build things. Gaza is in ruins. Could Gaza be Monaco if it was rebuilt the right way? Could someone make Gaza into something that all the Palestinian people would be proud of, would want to live in, would benefit them?
DT: It could be better than Monaco. It has the best location in the Middle East, the best water, the best everything. It’s got, it is the best, I’ve said it for years. You know, I’ve been there, and it’s rough. It’s a rough place, before the, you know, before all of the attacks and before the back and forth what’s happened over the last couple of years.
HH: Right.
DT: And I said wow, look at this. I mean, they have the back of a plant facing the ocean, you know. They’d have, there was no ocean as far as that was concerned. They never took advantage of it. You know, as a developer, it could be the most beautiful place – the weather, the water, the whole thing, the climate. It could be so beautiful. It could be the best thing in the Middle East, but it could be one of the best places in the world. And you know, there were other civilizations. I don’t know if you know this. It’s crazy, but that’s been a rough neighborhood. That’s been a rough place. You know, underneath that is, are two other civilizations where they’re, you know, they were wiped out and they started over, and they build on top.
HH: Oh, yeah.
DT: It’s amazing. I mean, that’s been a very contentious area for a long time, I can tell you that.
HH: Do you think your partners…can you get the Abraham Accords going again and get your partners, like UAE, Bharain and possibly Saudi to help you, and Egypt, to help you in Gaza if you’re president again to build it the right way and get rid of the fanatics?
DT: Yeah, yeah, so I’ll tell you, I think not only the Abraham Accords, you know, the Abraham Accords is one of the great things that’s ever happened in the Middle East. That should be loaded up with everybody right now. And you know, I made the statement the other day, people said oh. I would have gotten, in my opinion, 50/50 chance, maybe more than that, Iran would have been in the Abraham Accords. They wanted to make a deal so bad until we had that phony election. They wanted to make a deal so bad that it was…and Biden missed the opportunity. Now, then he pours money down their throat, gives them billions and billions, hundreds of billions of dollars, takes the sanctions off. They wanted to make a deal so badly. I would have had everybody, and I believe I would have had Iran. You would have had real peace in the Middle East.

Easy peasy. Just send yer son-in-law Jared over there to make a deal, evict all the rabble who can't pay Donald's exorbitant rents, and before you know it, up go the skyscrapers of Trump's Gaza Plaza ...
@moonbus saidTrump's meandering incomprehensible babble notwithstanding, aiming to turn Gaza into Dubai instead of Darfur or Sarajevo is certainly something a responsible authority (read: not Hamas) would have attempted.

@moonbus saidLet's not even mention that we had a deal with Iran, until Trump stopped it. Iran was adhering to the plan, too. But Trump stopped it, which gave Iran a green light to start their nuclear program back up. Trump only stopped it because it was Obama's plan.

@sh76 saidIt is worth reading the entire interview, because it shows so clearly Trump's 'stream of consciousness' manner of speaking. What you call his "meandering incomprehensible babble" has become the new normal. It has been commented on in the press:

and even given a name: "sanewashing," meaning: pretending that what he says is sane, editing out the insane bits, or waiting to publish until his spin doctors announce, subsequently, that he was speaking "sarcastically."
@moonbus saidTo be fair, Kamala ain't exactly Maya Angelou either, and 60 Minutes did a nice job editing out some of her most egregious word salads, if some of the sleuths on X are to be believed.

She's more lucid than Trump, but that's not saying much. Very mediocre for a potential POTUS. Very.
@sh76 saidYeah, Ms CumAllah is likely to try to encourage Israel to go easy on Islamic terrorists. I would bet she and Israel will be no friends.

@sh76 saidCertainly the slickest of the lot is Vance. His Yale education shows. But he also has the least experience of government.

I would not trust a man to handle international conflicts who has served barely a year in the Senate.
@moonbus saidA VP doesn't have to handle international conflicts. But in any case, Obama wasn't much more experienced when he ran for Senate.

I do no miss the days when we nominated foreign policy experts like George HW Bush and Hillary Clinton.
@sh76 saidI'm more concerned that Vance is only a heartbeat away for the presidency, if President Trump were to succumb to apoplexy, which seems likely. His blood pressure must be sky high.
