Another fucking book. When the President is insane, you need to shout it out at the time.

President Donald Trump in January 2018 offered to give the occupied West Bank to Jordan’s King Abdullah II, saying he would give him a “great deal,” according to a forthcoming book, “The Divider: Trump in the White House 2017-2021,” which was obtained by The Washington Post.

The occupied West Bank was not Trump’s to give away. The US government does not have the authority to offer the occupied West Bank to another person, country, or entity. The territory is at the heart of the one of the most contentious, enduring, and complicated disputes in the world — the Israel-Palestine conflict.

Abdullah II told an American friend that when Trump made the offer, “I thought I was having a heart attack,” according to the book, written by Peter Baker, chief White House correspondent for The New York Times, and Susan Glasser, staff writer for The New Yorker.

Trump offered the West Bank to Jordan’s king, according to a new book. The territory was not his to give away. (BI)
