“I would like Egypt to take people,” Trump said. “You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing and say: ‘You know, it’s over.'”
“I would love for you to take on more, ‘cause I am looking at the whole Gaza Strip right now, and it’s a mess. It’s a real mess.”
“It is literally a demolition site right now, almost everything is demolished and people are dying there,” he said.
“So, I would rather get involved with some of the Arab nations and build housing in a different location, where they can maybe live in peace for a change.”

You underestimate the strength of Property-Brain
You tell the average USAan that something belongs to them and that someone else has it and they will punch, bite and scratch to take it
Hell, look at the Southwest, it’s literal desert and not only did we take it, we ship water in to grow grass to play golf
One of the biggest shows on TV right now is all about keeping land
Fuck, one of the spin-offs of that show is literally called Landman
Manifest Destiny is literally burned into our minds
What show are you talking about?
believe they’re talking about Yellowstone, directed by Taylor Sheridan. His whole directorial output since Yellowstone, including two prequels, Landman, maybe Tulsa King as well, center around private property struggles and “expanding the frontier”.

Considering how strong immigration was in affecting the last election though, you think they’d understand why making a million immigrants would be hated by both the people who want to leave and the nearby countries who would have to accept them.
You give them too much credit. Typical USians do not reflect on these things whatsoever, most only consider how things affect them personally. Such a strong culture of individualism does not breed empathy.
Hell, it even leaves many of them incapable of requesting or accepting help from others who are willing and even offering to help.
No. Someone was trying to explain to me why Israel was the righteous. They used the hesitancy of neigbouring Arab States to take refugees to justify the violence. “They dont even take care of their own”. I think it had a kind of human shield inflection.
