On Monday, Fox News interviewed Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) while he was attending the opening of the American embassy in Jerusalem.
Graham said, “Of all the things President Trump could have done to tell Israel we have their back, making Jerusalem the capital is the strongest signal he could have sent. In 1995 we voted 95-3 to make Jerusalem the capital of Israel. Trump is the first president to make it happen by moving the embassy. An unequivocal statement in very difficult times. I just left the prime minister’s office. He said of all the things President Trump could have done, doing this is the strongest signal he could send to the Israeli people.”
He added, “This is a huge deal. I hope North Korea is looking and listening. When Donald Trump says he is going to do something he means it.”
