Alas, it has been going on for thousands of years, and it is why the framers of our legal system gave war powers to the House of Representatives.
This is a swamp.

I think it explains a lot of this. I think it's Iran. Think about it: Bolton is in (a war Hawk). China is threatening a petroyuan to replace the petrodollar (on the 26th of March???)...and Saudi is purging their inner government of all those opposed to going to war with Iran. We need Saudi to keep trading on the petrodollar.
Now, couple all this with this overwhelming "need" to get the military funded at a much higher rate...and with what is happening in Syria (where Iran is very active)...and with the recent developments regarding the Iranian agreement. Read between the lines...I think we are going to war within the next 6-12 months.

Do you understand that he advocates invasion of countries no matter if it violates international; law, Give us the list of countries the you personally are willing die in those invasions. Also, I assume that is is perfectly alright with you if China invades to liberate San Fag sicko. Is that ok with you or would you like a little international law restraint there but not on us, Bolton is insane. Trump is lost in a sea of crap.

So, you advocate letting the UN tell us how to run our foreign policy.
I’m not sure what you are talking about regarding Bolton wanting to invade countries. Can you show some supporting evidence of this?

There is no constitution. We are governed by secret elites who bring 2000 page bills down to what we used to think was the House of Representative and prostitutes actually vote for it!! I guess you can call it a “Whore House”.

Donald Trump only won in 2016 because of the foreign policy stupidity that John Bolton promoted in Washington.
Bolton's big-government globalism in the 1990s and 2000s was the biggest reason why Yeb Bush was less popular than ISIS among Republican primary voters in 2016.

You need to reread the article. Steyn painted him just the opposite.

You make the mistake of assuming that everyone who voted against the original bill would have voted the same way when it came to overriding it.
Most of the Democrat "opposition" to this bill was nothing more than political posturing because they knew the bill would pass anyway. If it came to an override vote, there may have been unanimous Democrat support for the bill just to damage Trump and expose the rift in the GOP.

Iraq was invaded many moons ago.
I’m talking about the present day as we already know that Trump was against Iraq.
So, where is he advocating we invade, now ? I say your claim is bullshit, but maybe you have evidence I haven’t heard before.

And then what? Shutdown? This was a lose lose.
Trump has to fight both Congress and the embedded leftists in the executive branch. Good luck with that.
