WASHINGTON – Two leading Democratic lawmakers from New York criticized US President Donald Trump this week for deferring on his campaign promise to relocate the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, questioning silence from their colleagues on both sides of the aisle.
Chuck Schumer, the highest-ranking Democrat in the Senate, and Eliot Engel, ranking member of the House Foreign Relations Committee, both issued condemnatory statements after the White House temporarily waived a congressional requirement compelling the embassy move.

Chuckie......the Senate master of delay. GFY.
I would guess that Trump is waiting for Israel to go along with it. Things may be in a delicate state with the “Palestinians.” It’s up to the Israeli government to decide if this is the right time.
No such concern when Obama was President.
Of course, if he would have already moved it they would have condemned that as well!
...doesn’t anyone really care about spending millions to move an established embassy to another city.
Then you should have had Obama do it, Shmucky.
Then you should have had Obama do it, Shmucky.Obama would have moved it to Tehran if he thought he could...And Schumer would have praised him for it.
I look forward to the embassy moving to Jerusalem.
Does not matter. New York Jews were never going to vote for Trump. And Obama had 8 years to do it. And promised to screw Israel instead. Timing is not up to Schumer. Trump can do it whenever. The good people of Wisconsin and Michigan won’t care.
Hah! No doubt about it.
The Democrats have been rabidly against the move at all.
Who is this clown trying to kid here?
Glad to see it going there, but it isn’t on the top of my lists of priorities.

Dear Chuckie: Obama signed off on it for 8 years. What’s your problem??
As a successful real estate guy, Trump knows better than anyone else the importance of clear land titles in any project.
If it was up to me I’d not only move the embassy but would move that Dome on the Rock somewhere else and insist Israel rebuild the Temple. Make it clear to the world and especially Mozlems that Islam is not God’s gift to the Universe. Mozlems need to have their noses rubbed vigorously in defeat after defeat.
You know, if we could charge Chuckey $10.00 every time he runs to a microphone, we could put a serious dent in the national debt.
Man I get tired of this guy.
