Criticism and concern spread across both sides of the aisle after President Donald Trump announced that the United States “will take over the Gaza Strip.”

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., called the proposal “problematic,” while Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., slammed it as “deranged” and “nuts.” Upon hearing of Trump's remarks, Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., clutched his face in shock, saying he was at a loss for words.
