    I don’t know bout y’all, but I certainly did not have “annex Gaza and turn it into a beach resort” on my 2025 Q1 bingo card.

      I certainly did… I ve been saying that all that beachfront land is too valuable to developers to not use as a tourist spot.

      The more I read comments like this, the more I realise nobody really paid attention in the lead up to the election. They even had artists impressions of beach front development for crying out loud.

        I feel like Trump’s campaign speed was like one of the early seasons of 24, where so much is happening that the “turning Gaza into a beach resort” subplot must have drowned.

        Pre-election Danish news media were mostly covering the Harris roller-coaster, and post-election we’ve all been a little preoccupied with being threatened by our closest ally.
