This bit is concerning:Man my bingo card is just getting decimated tonight. I really thought I would have hit "Trump Says Chai-Nuh" by now but, alas, here we are:

So, I know I’m not gonna get everyone on side with “proposing to ethnically cleanse the Gaza Strip for conquest is awful”, but we all agree that Trump suggesting doing it and a potential U.S. troop presence is really, really stupid, right?

WTAF…
Wow, no kidding. Every CIA intelligence officer working Panama, or Canada, or Denmark, or Britain is one not working China, Russia, or Iran.

And kicking 2 million people into countries who don’t want them or have a plan for them is?
The US would be better doing a Germany style occupation/reeducation/rebuild if thats what they want to do.

Yes. Europe has taken in over 6 million Ukrainian refugees, not to mention millions more from the Middle East and Africa over the past decade. The Arab world has vast amount of land and money to resettle, temporarily or not, 2 million of their own. They need to suck it up and do their part.
How many refugees is the US planning to take in? Will they lead by example?

That will consume a lot of American lives & money, and there will not be the allies that supported in Afghanistan and/or Iraq.

Iran can't be THAT much of a threat, given that protection details against Iranian threats were removed from Mike Pompeo, Brian Hook and John Bolton, right? I mean, a former Canadian cabinet minister was apparently under threat only a few months ago.

Just a question but if you knew there was a nest of venemous snakes in your friends yard and he wants them gone are you taking any?
Kind of my point.

Not if you're the US Navy, who might build a base in Gaza (next to the casinos and beach clubs) to restore dominance in a region that's always falling apart.
Even better because Russia has been kicked out of Syria, just up the coast.
Reclaiming maritime dominance: The urgent need for a bold US naval strategy - opinion
As the US deploys naval assets to counter threats in the Middle East, a broader strategic challenge remains: restoring American naval dominance.

I was doing some investigating into Trump's new administration, to get a feel of what his list of appointees would look like. One might assume that he would have straight white guys across the board, with all this talk of rolling back DEI. However, out of the 23 nominations I found, 11 do not fit that mold. There are 8 women nominated, 2 of which are non-white. There is an openly gay man, an African American, and a man of Indian descent.
More surprising are the positions that some of the females are nominated for: Homeland Security Secretary, Attorney General, Ambassador to the UN, Director of National Intelligence, and Labor Secretary.
If they are all confirmed, it will be interesting to see how the internal dynamics of government work this time around, and if they all last the four year.
