Presidential hopeful Donald Trump has hired Paul Manafort as convention manager, but his history with Israel might cause some problems for his campaign. 

Manafort once lobbied in favor of Saudis against moving the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. That move might haunt Trump, according to the Daily Beast.

We will move the American embassy to the eternal capital of the Jewish people, Jerusalem.
