He needs to do something to distract from the news headlines about the awful start to his presidency, so he went for bigotry.

Why are all far-right political figures batshit insane? I mean they’re already racist greedy assholes, do they really need to be even more unlikable…?

They work by whipping up outrage. They have to be ever more extreme to keep the machine going.

Note that even crusaders didn’t demolished the mosque, though they turned the Dome into the church and rest of mosque into palace, later Knights Templar had their headquarters there. When Saladin liberated the city he turned it back to mosque with really urgent speed (and he also didn’t demolish but repurposed Templar additions).

Herod built the first buildings there before the year 0. Romans destroyed it, then several iterations of buildings followed before the first mosque was built, razed, rebuilt, repurposed, repurposed again.

This site is as culturally relevant as the Parthenon and the colloseum. Calling for it’s destruction is crazy.
