Tomorrow the UN votes on a resolution calling on Trump and the US to retract its recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and the subsequent moving of the embassy to Jerusalem.
But Trump isn’t letting them have this anti-US, anti-Israel vote without letting member countries know there will be consequences for anyone who votes for this resolution:
YAHOO – U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday threatened to cut off financial aid to countries that vote in favor of a draft United Nations resolution calling for the United States to withdraw its decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
“They take hundreds of millions of dollars and even billions of dollars, and then they vote against us. Well, we’re watching those votes. Let them vote against us. We’ll save a lot. We don’t care,” Trump told reporters at the White House.
The 193-member U.N. General Assembly will hold a rare emergency special session on Thursday – at the request of Arab and Muslim countries – to vote on a draft resolution, which was vetoed by the United States on Monday in the 15-member U.N. Security Council.

That’s awesome!
Not only will Trump be taking names, but he’ll also be putting them on the ‘naughty’ list and (hopefully) taking away their aid funding if they vote for this resolution.
American strength in action!
