Welcome to Trump International Gaza Resort
Where Displacement Meets Luxury
Dear Valued Guest,
Welcome to the brand-new Trump International Gaza Resort™, where 2 million displaced residents recently made way for your unparalleled luxury experience.
For decades, so-called “experts” tried to bring peace to Gaza through diplomacy, humanitarian aid, and political solutions. But they all failed to consider the one thing that could truly unite this region: a Signature Ultra-Luxury Resort Experience.
ACCOMMODATIONS
Our gorgeous beachfront property represents the finest in historically atrocious travel. Each opulently appointed guest suite occupies the former site of a generational family home. Enjoy the majesty of history from a king-size bed, as you consider that human civilization began in this very spot.
Now, it has 3,000 gold toilets!
DINING
In the mood for local cuisine? Select from our world-class menu set by executive chef, Vivek Ramaswamy, who needed a job and is Middle Eastern or something.
PROPERTY AMENITIES
141 square miles of prime contested territory.
Stunning beach views, previously hidden behind various hospitals.
Three championship golf courses built atop former refugee camps.
A spa complex utilizing authentic hot rubble massage.
I’m happy you’re joining us for a new era of unprecedented luxury, and therefore peace, in this historically mismanaged region. And remember, VIP drilling rights are still available starting at $25 million, payable via direct cash bribe.
Yours,
Donald J. Trump

Special shouts to Chortle’s newest paid subscribers, Anthony P. and Will K.
Thanks for supporting comedy with your hard-earned cash. You make it possible for me to imagine that this will someday be a profitable endeavor, not just a fun thing that my wife tolerates.
An important apology to Jeff Kruse
Jeff wrote Monday’s piece, Forgotten Baseball Nicknames, Explained, which I accidentally ran under my byline. I do not want to steal Jeff’s valor, so please redirect your laughter his way! Sorry, Jeff!
MORE POLITICS FROM CHORTLE
Democrats' new battle cry: "Methinks the president doth protest too much"
The Democratic National Committee today proudly revealed its new slogan for 2025, a rallying cry designed to energize dejected Americans and show Donald Trump that the party will not be steamrolled during his second term: Methinks the president doth protest too much!
More Blatantly Illegal Trump Executive Orders
The first two weeks of Donald Trump’s second presidential term have been defined by a flood of executive orders—many of which were obviously unconstitutional from the moment they were scrawled by Stephen Miller’s Dementor-like hands.
Donald Trump's Greenland, by the numbers
Talk about efficiency: before even taking the oath of presidential office, Donald Trump has stumbled onto another profoundly impossible foreign policy idea. His latest hobbyhorse is that America ought to buy Greenland, which fits neatly alongside past propositions like “Mexico pays for border wall” and “NATO kisses my shiny black loafers.” He even refused to rule out American “military or economic coercion” to claim the island.
Satire at its finest!
"hot rubble massage"
it's the little things ; )
