The UNIPARTY prepares for MID-TERMS.

These “R” political thugs are out in force bringing the Schumer message to the fore.

Yeah Mike, and I guess Trump should just notify Assad also, since our leaking government would have him notified before our forward military was.

LMAO, seriously?

I think honest principled criticism from Lee is less danger to Trump’s presidency than the false cheers and demand for more action from people like Lindsey Graham. The War Powers Act does not supersede the Constitution which is still the supreme law of the land.

I knew we were going to strike Assad, I heard it all over the news days before it happened, how come Congress didn’t know?

Congress even criticized Trump for announcing his intentions.

It seems to me that Congress was clearly notified.

The US, UK and France were not “starting a war.”

They were delivering a humanitarian warning message.

Trump screwed up by publicizing this thing . Remember when Reagan launched a surgical strike on Muammar Gaddafi in Lybia? No announcements or fanfare. He just did it - to warn Lybia and the world not to attack Americans overseas. That was a legit action.

Here, Trump’s purpose was equivocal. He started by announcing the “atrocity” as the reason. Later he indicated he was dealing directly with an imminent threat to the U.S.

Bottom line: America is not some sort of world cop with a “moral” obligation to punish “bad leaders” within their own sovereign nation. Ignoring national sovereignty for one’s own “moral” outrage pushes the world towards the darkness of global totalitarian government. The only legitimate reason for direct intervention and attack like this is an imminent threat to America’s safety and interests. Not clear we had that here. Maybe, but Trump obviated our purpose IMO.

Mike Lee is NOT one of the bad guys who has been doing everything in his power to undermine the Pres. A lot of Deplorables voted for President Trump because he promised he wasn’t going to stay involved in places where we don’t belong.

Lee was one of the last idiots at the Republican national convention trying to muck up Trump’s nomination when most sane onlookers knewTrump had all the votes he needed.

Well the precision strike is over. Mission accomplished (BTW Ruskies and Syrians will not let in inspectors it’s being reported)! So now what is it Mike wants to do about Trump’s coalitions accomplishment?

I am sick of these whiney do nothing Congressmen and Senators. They would welcome foreign invaders. Oh, wait they already do, they call them illegal aliens. Oh they say that’s go harsh, they’re just undocumented. Oh, that’s to harsh too, they’re dreamers. I remember in history class about some colonies revolting against a king, the uniting their states to form a great country. Why don’t they revolt?

And on what ground does Mike Lee think Congress is now the CIC of the US Military?

Seems to me other CIC’s have dropped a few bombs or fired off a few missiles without consulting Congress first. I thought they can do that but need a yea or nay from Congress withing 60 days.

Lee’s ankle-biting criticism of Trump was non-stop during the election. He could have cared less if Hillary got elected along with the rest of the never-trump scum.

Lol, Lee was one of the first never-trump scumbags who was on TV in October 2016, demanding Trump step-down from the nomination after NBC released the Access Hollywood tape.
