The Constitution says Congressional approval is necessary to declare war. But since 9/11 Congress has passed and regularly reauthorizes the National Defense Authorization Act, which gives the president broad authority to do whatever he thinks is necessary to “fight terrorism.”

The NDAA is why there’s no limit whatsoever to Trump’s ability to take military action against Iran. A sweeter give away to the military-industrial-complex could not exist. A sure sign of who and what runs American foreign policy.

Childlike naivete. We're all better off that you'll never be president.

This is ridiculous. Go back to the forest.

How many Americans must die at the hands of terrorists, before we respond? Days of sending pallets of money to appease terrorist nations is done. This is why YOU will never be president.

Dedicate your life to changing it. We’re not the first generation to have to rise up at a dangerous time. Others did what they had to do and we can too. Let’s not be known some day as the wimpy generation who couldn’t quite get it together. Others had to have felt desperate too.
