Good morning. When President Trump announced on december 6 he was moving the United States embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem and recognizing jerusalem is israels capital, he said he was following through on a law passed by bill clinton in 1995. true. No one had done this before. The United Nations vote ampl y amplifies critics who believe that very peace process. The United States will remember this day in which it was singled out for attack.

It extends the authorization of the welfare program. Congress returns january 3rd. Cbs news chief correspondent and face the nation moderator John Dickerson. Good morning. Nobody was going have a showdown right before christmas, but this has caused tension in both parties because these spending bills are the way to use leverage to get done what you want to get done. So all of that leverage and fighting and toing and froing, those are all bottled up for when this comes in january. Tax cuts coming up in the new year. President , who controls congress, position themselves for the midterms at this point . Its interesting. The president has got a lot of achievements. Hes got achievements on lowering regulations, judicial nominations, and all of that. But if you look at the Approval Ratings, theyre historically low. The hope among republicans is that with the tax cut bill, they hope that improves. The question is how big is that and how will that term pay off in the offyear election and will they turn out. And, by the way, theres a lot to happen between now and the election day. Doug jones election changed things, made the race a little tighter, 5149. What do you think he has to focus on . Its going to be tougher. If you look at what democrats the seeing in their base, dislike of donald trump is keeping that base riled up. So why would you give donald trump the win. On the other hand, what the republicans will try to do on an issue like infrastructure is take an issue thats popular among democrats and say, here we go. That will be an interesting early battle. But in addition, youve got the question of entitlement. Youve got a big deficit problem caused by the tax bill. But Mitch Mcconnell said theyre not going to touch it. They dont even like calling them entitlements. I still want to know what happened in the general assembly, essentially denouncing President Trumps decision to recognize jerusalem as israels capital. How does this play out as the u. S. Looks to the world for help on north korea, iran, and cooperation on other issues . Thats right. There ooh a disconnection on the one hand saying were taking when the president even when he spoke at the u. N. , using the body to create a world pressure on north korea and also using the body to say to china, you know, you want to be its part of the way theyre putting pressure on china, saying you want to be on the world stage, you have to help with north korea. You have to believe in the notion of collective views from the other countries. On the one hand you need that to exist and on the other, were going to take names if you disapprove of what were doing. Theres a dysconnect there. But theres often been a disconnect. When they dont like it, they say, well, were going to go our own way. Nikki haley was very firm and alone yesterday.
