Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas) called on the Trump administration Thursday to resume plans to relocate the American embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.Their demand comes two weeks after President Donald Trump signed an order putting those plans on hold to avoid driving Palestinians away from a peace agreement."Fifty years later, now is finally time to recognize Jerusalem as the one eternal and indivisible capital," Cruz said at a luncheon hosted by the Orthodox Union Advocacy Center on Capitol Hill. "I believe it is long past time to move the American embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, where it belongs."Schumer touted the Senate's unanimous passage of a resolution commemorating the 50th anniversary of Jerusalem's reunification. The measure, passed on June 6, asserted, "Jerusalem should remain the undivided capital of Israel" and "reaffirms the Jerusalem Embassy Act," which mandated the relocation of the American embassy in 1995. The law allows the president to postpone the move on national security grounds.The Senate advanced the resolution just five days after Trump waived for six months a congressional mandate requiring the embassy to be located in Jerusalem. Trump will have to take up the issue again in December and administration officials insisted the decision was just a delay.
What's Schumer's game?
Schumer has always been an advocate for moving the Embassy, even as far back as the Clinton administration when Bill was postponing the move back then, as did Bush and the Marxist.Why? I have no idea, because Schumer never does anything for the right reasons, only political gain.
It might have something to do with him playing to his Jewish base in NYC.
Ding ding ding!!! I think you just nailed it!
That's what it is. He has their back...until the election is over.
