All congress has to do is float a "Declaration of War". If it passes then the President will be required to pursue the conflict. Congress seems to have forgotten their basic responsibilities.

SFC (Join to see) they are an activist wing of the Democrats. If Trump added more Soldiers to the Middle East the Lwft would call him a war monger. Again, it illustrates that liberalism is a mental disorder.
