Präsident Donald Trump behauptete am Freitag, es sei verfassungswidrig, die Zustimmung des Kongresses für einen Krieg einzuholen.

    In einer Rede vor der Presse vor dem Weißen Haus jammerte Trump, er dürfe sich nicht an die War Powers Resolution von 1973 halten, die vom Präsidenten verlangt, seine Streitkräfte nach 60 Tagen aus einem Konflikt abzuziehen, es sei denn, der Kongress erklärt den Krieg oder genehmigt eine Verlängerung.

      So the 60th day is up and nothing happeneed.

      This is the story of the U.S State. All these apparent rules are nothing but pretense and propaganda.

      All Trump has to do is make up some story, and nothing will happen to him or the regime.

      There are no real consequences, and there are no real laws in that lawless, fascist, shithole.

      Has he never heard that The Founding Fathers were quite keen on „Checks and Balances“. In order to prevent the President or somebody else becoming a rogue, mad, dictator like King George III?

    3. It’s just as Unconstitutional for him to unilaterally start a war of aggression all by himself

      So he was absent the day they taught about „checks and balances“ with the 3 branches of government?

      Sends the wrong message to continue to permit him to flaunt and defy the law. Staggering consequences for our country as a result.

      Obvious Abuse of Power but I’m sure we’ll see an impeachment bill by Monday🤑

      Obese Pop-Pop believe he was appointed as our Grand National Decider. He’s doing a bang-up job of deciding things, too.

    8. Perhaps he ought to read the constitution, Article I, Section 8, Clause 11:

      [The Congress shall have Power . . . ] To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water; . . .

      LOL. Reading comprehension is a learned skill. Perhaps we should test a politicians for knowledge of the constitution

    10. Sounds funny coming from the most unconstitutional ass-wipe in American histoey.

      And republicans will once again look at the floor and shuffle their feet like children and be afraid to tell him no. The democrats will start being loud and clutching their pearls saying how outraged they are! Same shit different day! It is getting really old!

    12. When the Law serves to protect one class of people, but not bind them….when the Law binds another class of people, but does not protect them…..there is no law. Let the Outlawing begin….
