WASHINGTON—After meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on Tuesday afternoon, President Donald Trump suggested the United States could “take over” the Gaza Strip to rebuild it.
Trump doubled down on his previous idea that today’s Gazans need a chance to live safely and securely somewhere else, like Egypt or Jordan. He then said, “Instead of having to go back and do it again, the U.S. will take over the Gaza Strip, and we will do a job with it too.”
