 Speaking at a synagogue in Florida, Ivanka Trump assured Jewish voters that her father would “100 percent” move the USA embassy to Jerusalem if he is elected president. Ivanka Trump, who converted to Judaism in 2010 and is married to a Jewish man, called her father, the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, an “unbelievable champion” for the State of Israel and for the Jewish people during a talk on Thurs. 27 Oct. 2016, at The Shul of Bal Harbour in Surfside, Florida. “You won’t be disappointed,” she told the audience during the talk. In addition to saying Donald Trump will move the embassy to Jerusalem, which she called “the eternal capital,” she also said he supported her conversion to Judaism before her marriage to Jared Kushner. “I so respect the fact that he supported me from day one,” she said. “There was no question, there was no argument. He was very supportive.” Congress passed a law in 1995 mandating the move of the embassy to Jerusalem, but allowed the president a waiver. Each president since then has routinely exercised the waiver, citing the national security interests of the United States. (Jerusalem Post)
