Chris Murphy 🟧@ChrisMurphyCT 30mI have news for you - we arent taking over Gaza.
But the media and the chattering class will focus on it for a few days and Trump will have succeeded in distracting everyone from the real story - the billionaires seizing government to steal from regular people.

(515 posts)Trump has ALWAYS had. He has always been a lawless bully with no regard to laws, customs, or norms. He's almost 80 and it has worked for him his entire life.

(1,015 posts)This is a distraction from the take over of the government. It is the grifter's MO - look over here...smoke and mirrors...the shell game.

Over on Breitbart, where I occasionally lurk and troll when I get bored, the right wingers are not down with this latest idiotic idea. While the editor of Breitbart is a full blown Zionist racist, many, many readers are more garden variety anti-Semites and isolationists. They are not happy at all and some even have the geopolitical sense to predict one, two, many 9/11s if we get further involved over there.

(26,440 posts)A fu>king distraction with him.
Listening to him is equal to watching someone squirt diarrhea into the air in front of a crowd that is totally dumbfounded and covered in it.
It's a complete waste of time and intelligence.
He's a compulsive liar.
Why can't people grasp that?

(3,415 posts)In her Politics Chat: February 2, 2025, Heather Cox Richardson focused and explains exactly what Elon is doing. She says there's a possibility of stopping it. But we have maybe 3-4 weeks at most.
We are in a constitutional crisis.

(8,539 posts)I cannot and will not listen to the orange clown, twitter person and Bibi. Both of these mass murders should be in jail and not having a press conference about how they are going to solve the problems they created.
Just another distraction to the coup that is happening with Musk having access to ALL OF OUR DATA. Our DATA Privacy is gone. Done. Never to be had again. THAT IS A FUCKING TRAVESTY. I DON'T KNOW WHY WE AREN'T IN THE STREETS!

(12 posts)Which means they would gain constitutional rights as citizens of the United States. Annexation doesn't mean only the land that, means the people as well. If Gaza is too unsafe for them to go back to then they could resettle anywhere in the US mainland. I wonder how that will go over with their MAGA base. Is this just a distraction from Elon's looting of the Treasury? Doesn't even make sense.
Renew Deal
(83,443 posts)But I take that as Trump-speak for pacifying it. Trump and his lackeys have no intention of moving non-white people to the US.
He wants to own Canada and Greenland, but not Mexico.
