Trump’s unkept — so far — promise to recognize all of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital is no bettet than Putin’s ridiculous attempt to split the baby. Who in Trump’s circle is stalling Trump on this matter?

That would be King Abdullah of Jordan.

Trump's "promise" was nothing more than a campaign tactic aimed at fending off attacks from his Republican rivals during the primary season last year. He had previously promised a more even-handed approach to the Israel-Palestine dispute, which was almost certainly his own instinct on the matter before politics came into play.

Kushner, and McMasters.

McMaster is owned by Goldman.
