Steve Schmidt: Trump has "blood on his hands" for Jerusalem embassy

This is not about making the Middle East more secure. It’s not about making the United States more secure. It’s not about making sure that we don’t have yet another generation of American kids in Middle Eastern wars. It’s all about Donald Trump being able to score a point, ephemeral as it may be in the news cycle and to position himself for the midterm elections.

It’s clear as day that he has no sense of history. He’s completely ignorant of the religions in the region. Do you think he could tell you the origins of the Sunni-Shia schism? I suspect not. He knows nothing about anything. He’s bumbling around and he destabilized with this rash move the Middle East and as I said when he announced the move to the embassy there will be blood on his hands not because he pulled the trigger but because he destabilized the region without having any clue about what he was doing and that goes for Jared Kushner as well.
