No Democrats from Congress showed up for the opening of the U. S. embassy in Jerusalem, in protest apparently, yet when the Democrats controlled Congress for two years under Obama, they could have but didn’t rescind the law to move the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, the implementation of the law avoided every six months since 1994 by presidential waiver until Trump came along. It’s interesting that when the law was passed, the Republicans had just won back both houses of Congress for the first time in forty years after two years of the Clinton presidency, not vetoed by Clinton then, because of the law’s popularity, and implemented now for the same reason, more bad news for the Democrats.
