What Jared Moskowitz and Josh Gottheimer are doing here is disgusting.
Even if you believe...
against all evidence that Iran is an imminent threat to the United States that demands military action, the idea that you would let this president, this corrupt tin pot dictator surrounded by yahoos, including a military commanded by a Fox News host... Who's drunk.
Who has a reported drinking problem.
Wage war in Iran without going to Congress, that you would give up your...
responsibility, your power to try to influence how that war would take place because you want to show yourself to be tough on Iran or friendly with Israel or whatever else is just, it is immoral.
It is truly, truly disgusting.
Like we can disagree about the merits of military action in Iran.
You cannot credibly argue that Donald Trump without Congress on his own should unilaterally
launch a war with Iran.
That is an insane position for a Democrat.
All that War Powers Resolution is doing is saying Donald Trump has to come to Congress first.
There is not an imminent threat here.
And if there was, then the president has the power to act, but there is not one.
