Pinhead Schumer is finally seeing the light, and has joined with this guy named Cruz, to push The Donald into moving the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv.

You'll forgive me if I have to rinse my keyboard, mentioning both in the same sentence....

QuoteSenate 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.

Definitely quite odd to see the names Cruz and Schumer together.

What's Schumer's game?

It can't be any sudden desire for justice for Israel, the way the Donks have been sucking up to the Muslims.

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.

That's the only reason I can come up with for Chuckey wanting to move the embassy, that and he wants to take ALL credit.

At least until the last checkbook closes and they are wise to his worthlessness.
