Who cares

I would assume people claiming they are America First and deeply concerned with Iran’s growth of regional influence, with battling extremist groups in the Middle East, and protecting our troops and public servents overseas, instead of their donor’s money. Groups that will see recruitment swell and mobilization grow while tenuous alliances risk fracturing and harming American foreign policy. As America would be taking the unprecedented act of moving their capital to a highly contentious part of the region. Something no other country has done, for good reason, and administration’s of both parties have recognized the negative sum implication for why it shouldn’t be done.

For someone that is more concerned about Adelson’s money though, yeah, move the embassy. Why not.
