President Donald Trump loves to toss out startling ideas aimed at dropping jaws.

Never in modern times has a president offered so many off-the-cuff statements with such a potential for wide, even global impact.

At other times, Trump just moves on, either by fashioning a rhetorical off-ramp or finding a way to declare victory.

Trump has repeatedly floated the idea that the U.S. would “take over” war-torn Gaza and move out the Palestinians who live there.

The president also suggested that developers could turn the area into a “ Riviera of the Middle East ,” once the war between Israel and Hamas has concluded.

Trump continues to suggest that an autopen was used to sign presidential pardons during the tenure of former President Joe Biden .
