It Has Long Been the Goal of Conservatives to Shut Down the UN
The Jerusalem vote may well be the cause of a new resurgence of that idea. Trump would gladly go along with such an effort, I'm sure.
Once again, having Republicans in control of all three branches of government may well lead to consequences most people didn't expect.
More's the pity.
No Rockhead. We want to withdraw from the U.N.
The UN is a toothless tiger that serves itself. The corruption and unaccountability is second to none. The U.N. in some cases uses U.S. money to actively undermine American values and interests. We give over $ 700 million a year and in return we have our soldiers fight other country’s wars.
The United Nations is an organization designed to keep peace in all countries. This was not how we evolved. Wars were, and still are necessary, and peace is never practical. Also, the United States has been involved in armed conflicts before and after they joined the UN. Before we joined, we were involved in the Mexican American and Spanish Wars. After we joined, we have been involved in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and the "War on Terror." Terrorism has spread rapidly while the UN Charter has been in effect. ISIS has been formed, the Middle East became corrupt, and terrorist attacks on US soil have only increased since the Charter went into effect. In the end, the United Nations has failed its main goal: To keep peace in the world.
So, the United States should leave the UN and in turn, kick the damn UN out of the United States.

Beg to differ.
The UN is an organization hat APPEARS to keep peace which disguises their real purpose of enriching depots and serving as a megaphone so that even the smallest country can attack the US and Israel.
The latest resolution confirms that.
US out of the UN and UN out of US.

Are Pakistan and Saudi Arabia still in charge of Human Rights at the UN?

Remember back when the little DUmmy goons thought the UN was going to charge in and make John Kerry president? Or when the idiot DUmmy goons thought the UN was the answer to every problem they had not getting their way in just about every election?
I remember one of the ignorant DUmmy goons thought the UN should step in on the Merrick Garland For Supreme Court Justice sitcom.
The ridiculous DUmmy goons have always thought the UN was the final word. Even after being shown time and time again the UN meant nothing to anyone. They had to have HOPE. The UN was their HOPE. They dream of blue helmets standing guard over all Republican business.

Starting with 1960s revelations that Soviet Bloc heads of UNICEF were diverting UNICEF money into feeding their starving children so they could use their own money to build their military, yeah. Conservatives have wanted our UN enemies off US soil and to leave/defund the UN for decades.

And over all Christian churches and all private homes/ neighborhoods believed to be inhabited by conservatives.

Yes and there is (or was) a post all giddy over Mourning Jo and Bleeding Chins Brzezinski about the UN. Sadly this happened shortly there after:
“Morning Joe” namesake Joe Scarborough slammed United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley on Friday for “threatening” the General Assembly--but the MSNBC star wante d to withdraw from the U.N. altogether back when he was a Congressman.
Haley threatened to pull funding over the U.N. vote condemning President Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel--and the MSNBC star didn’t appreciate it.
Unfortunately for Scarborough, Breitbart’s Joel Pollak dug up a bill the former Republican Congressman introduced back in 1995 that would have ended U.S. membership in the U.N.
Scarborough said that Haley was “no diplomat” and “an embarrassment to the United States” because she warned the U.S. will remember the lack of support the next time the General Assembly needs money.
