Opinion | President Trump's war will likely leave Iran with an even worse regime
Sen. Chris Coons: President Trump showed a stunning and reckless lack of planning on Iran
Article I, Section 8 of The Constitution clearly states "The Congress shall have Power to declare War!" It does not say that the president has this Power! So how does this Republican controlled Congress allow the president to do what it is supposed to be doing?
So now we find ourselves engaged in an illegal war, started by a president who did not have the authority to start it, who thinks he can do anything he wants to! Therefore the Republican led Congress, by not reining in the president, and giving him succor, is complicit and approving of his illegal war.
Bear in mind also that this president is not fazed by illegality. He carries on his back the weight of thirty four convictions by the State of New York, and wears those convictions like a badge of honor. The cost of this war will weigh heavily on the American people, with increased gasoline prices affecting all facets of daily life where transportation on land, sea or air is involved, not to mention the loss of reputation of the United States to the international community. That cost is not only the responsibility of the president but his Congress also!
But perhaps the worst effect of all is this Congress telling this president that there are no restraints, go do whatever you want, invade any country you want to, and you will be supported by this limp noodle Congress!
Bigly!!!
