Not for Israel, since Jerusalem has been the seat of power since its inception. But I understand that the Arab and Muslim nations in the region aren't entirely jazzed about it, which might be a precursor for conflict.

Pretty clever politics by Trump. Make a decision that will create conflict, hence his prophecy of danger comes to fruition and then he gets to push through his immigration legislation. Win/win for him.

A win for the rest of us?

Correct. Not that there are any issues, of course.

He is also proposing to move the American embassy there as well. That should go well.

But the Israeli's can quickly fix that now perhaps?

I think Jerusalem should be a free religious city for all those who revere it - under UN peacekeeping administration.
It won't happen because the religious nutters on all sides want exclusive possession for their particular delusion.

As catastrophic as the current incumbent?

She's just another neoliberal fanatic anyway who would sell out America's working class just as quickly as Trump has.
