I know EXACTLY how you feel.

I broke with my Congresscritter, Alex Mooney (R, WV-2) over his vote in favor of the Harris Amendment to the Anti-Lynching bill....wholebunchalotta GOP Alpha Hotels were with him on that POS giving sharia a foot hold.

If Congress was actually doing it’s job, aka declaring war per their constitutional responsibility, there would have never been a War Powers Act. An act, BTW that grants the executive the authority to commit military forces in hostilities for up to 60 days WITHOUT the consent of congress and follow up with them on the details within 48 hours after committing forces.

So, the congress can go pound sand.

The Democrats oppose the President. Not exactly a revelation. I guess they do this kind of thing to please their few constituents who can speak and read English.

Philosophically, I agree with constraining a POTUS from unilateral war making.

If this resolution was not specifically directed at Trump and Iran I would support it wholeheartedly.

Alas, Democrats and some Republicans only seek to undermine the strength and resolve of the nation while under direct threat. And to undermine the CinC while hostilities are afoot.

And I call them traitors to the American people over it.

It was bound to come to this.

Lame. He’s siding with the Dems at a time when President Trump needs to be solidly supported; Mike Lee, I’m even more surprised at. Grandstanding pols are in it for themselves. . .

If Trump needs approval fast how many House reps need to give approval? is it just a few top players or a committee?

I have a feeling future terminations won’t go good ie. the muslims will be tipped off.

Democrat resolutions aren’t worth the paper or the ink to create them.

Except in the fake news media...
