President Donald Trump has huge plans for Gaza. He revealed his vision for the coastal enclave in a music video shared on his Truth Social platform late Tuesday, which appears to have been created with generative AI.

It begins with images of the war-torn region, left battered by its ongoing conflict with Israel, before posing the question “What’s next?” in red, white and blue letters. Then, the destruction disappears and the sun suddenly comes out, turning the smog-filled sky blue as it shines down on a new Gaza, reimagined as a swanky vacation destination featuring a giant golden statue of Trump, bearded belly dancers and parties too.

“Donald Trump will set you free, bringing the life for all to see. No more tunnels, no more fear,” a voice sings. “Trump Gaza is finally here!”

Elon Musk, who is leading Trump’s efforts to overhaul and downsize the federal government, also makes several cameos in the video. At one point, the billionaire can be seen sporting a crisp tan and snacking on hummus. He appears again later on a beach, where he throws money at children.

In another scene, a young boy toting a gold Trump balloon can be seen walking among skyscrapers in the transformed city while yachts float on extra blue water nearby.

The 30-second clip culminates in a shot of a large building with “Trump Gaza” plastered above the entrance, while the song continues to play.

“Donald’s coming to set you free,” a voice sings. “Trump Gaza shining bright. Golden future, a brand-new light. Feast and dance. The deed is done. Trump Gaza, number one.”

It then shows a shirtless Trump lounging poolside with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, both of them all smiles as they sip their cocktails.

The post comes after the president suggested ousting the 2.1 million Palestinians from Gaza and transforming the enclave into the “Riviera of the Middle East,” which would be developed by the United States.
