An Israeli official confirmed to The New York Times on Wednesday that Trump will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem on Dec. 28. The official said the visit has been scheduled for two weeks.
The Jerusalem Post reported that Trump is also considering a visit to Temple Mount, a source of friction between Palestinians and Israelis.
In addition to the mosque, the site includes two ancient temples.
It is unclear if Trump would attempt to visit the mosque.
Netanyahu is receiving some backlash over his decision to meet with the billionaire candidate. Thirty-seven Knesset members have signed a petition calling on the prime minister to cancel the meeting, The Jerusalem Post reported.

Was this a good idea or bad idea, and why?
