He says that brokering a peace deal between Palestine and Israel is the toughest deal he's ever had to make, (and he's made more deals than most people!),
It may be an impossibility, but if anyone can do it I personally believe he is the man. Do you agree?

[Jackdaw33]

No, because no matter how one tries there will never be peace between the two sides.

[Khandro]

Jack; I'm afraid you may be right, particularly in the light of the fact that one side is totally dedicated to the complete annihilation of the other. Add to that that how young Palestinians are brought up from the cradle to hate all Jews, whether in Israel of anywhere else; a curious objective (rooted in the Koran), considering there are only estimated to be 14 million Jews in the entire world, which is less than the population of Istanbul.
One thing is for sure, it's useless throwing money at them as it ends up in the hands of leaders of Hezbollah and Hamas- the wealthiest terrorist organisations in the world.

[Old_Geezer]

Since he's already got the back up of the Palestinians, seems very unlikely. He'd need to get major Israeli concessions to get even close.

[KARL]

He is, on the face of it, very likely to at some stage proclaim a "beautiful" peace deal. However, if that happens, having registered his sound bite and series of tweets he will at that point turn to something else and it will come to light that there really was no deal.

[ichkeria]

There's more chance of Russell Brand achieving a ME peace settlement - and the chances of that are less than zero.

[Peter Pedant]

yes deffo
north korea, canada, france, mehico - arl beautiful successes !
if he's gonna kick arriss - he will kick arriss!

[Khandro]

P.P. A few months ago, N. Korea was firing ballistic missiles over Japan and the world was in fear of nuclear war with no dialogue taking place at all between them and the US; not now.
Canada and Mexico both had enormous trade deficits with the US, not now.
Germany was manufacturing Mercedes cars in Mexico, employing cheap labour and exporting them cheaply into the US. not now.
US economy is booming and the stock-market is at a record high.
All this would have thought impossible and would not have happened with H.Clinton in the White House, and he's done it under continual hostility from the meeja.
So who knows?

[youngmafbog]

Can he broker a peace? Possibly but it wont last for all the reasons mentioned above.

Perhaps he could start by getting COB to get his mates at Hezbollah on board?

[Gromit]

The US has given Israel $235 Billion, and has agree to donate $38 Billion over the next 10 years.
No wonder it is flourishing.

[jim360]

Independent of whether or not you like the man, crediting him with messianic qualities seems a bit OTT.

I highly doubt that Trump will be able to solve this one.
