Asked if Palestinians would have the right to return, Mr. Trump told Fox: “No, they wouldn’t because they’re going to have much better housing,” according to a transcript of the interview released by Fox.
“I’m talking about building a permanent place for them because if they have to return now, it’ll be years before you could ever — it’s not habitable. It would be years before it could happen.”
“I think I could make a deal with Jordan. I think I could make a deal with Egypt. You know, we give them billions and billions of dollars a year,” Mr. Trump added.
