  • I mean it’s basically just declaring war. It’s the US acting unilaterally to attack a foreign nation for no reason at all. Granted that’s nothing new, but at least with Iraq and Afghanistan, Bush got permission from Congress through the Iraq Resolution (and the AUMF Against Terrorists Act in Afghanistan’s case) before he actually invaded. I get the feeling Trump isn’t even going to ask, he’s just going to attack Venezuela, get dragged into a war, and die.

    Then again, Obama attacked Libya without congressional approval, and while Congress could have done something about it, they didn’t.
