Pence rolls back Trump’s Jerusalem embassy pledge

Pence addresses Jewish Republicans in Adelson's Las Vegas Casino Hotel

"Vice President Mike Pence substantially walked back Trump’s campaign pledge to move the embassy to Jerusalem, saying the administration was “assessing whether the embassy should be moved,” to tepid applause.

Trump himself has walked back his embassy pledge since he assumed office last month, but sending Pence, who for years has been intimately close to the pro-Israel community, to deliver the message to a fiercely pro-Israel audience seemed to put an end to hopes that any move would happen soon, if at all."
