Duckworth and Murphy seem to forget who the Commander in Chief is.

More proof that the 17th. Amendment needs to be repealed.

Is there anyone on this planet who is not a Saudi Royal who has a bigger ego than members of our Senate?

What did the Hawaiian judges say? Because we know nothing is legal in the country unless the Hawaiian judges approve.

The Dems have all of a sudden become war hawks. Losers.

Didn’t Jimmy Carter want to do the same thing when South Korea was a $hithole?

...that would stop President Trump from withdrawing U.S. forces from South Korea without the Pentagon’s input.

That's a thing he is exceedingly unlikely to do in any case. But last I heard, the Pentagon works for him.

These two seem to forget that this President, unlike his predecessor, prefers to take actions the old-fashioned Constitutional way, not by so-called “Executive” action. Not to worry though, they will speak out against such “unconstitutional” actions—until another Democrat becomes President, that is!

It’s an attempt at a Billary, Inc. style “triangulation” move, attemtping to attract some foreign policy Hawks regardless of party and maybe, maybe, get some GOP Hawks swayed to agree with them, even if only in the November election by GOP candidates in “Blue” dominant districts.

Some of these dimwhits will do anything to castrate Trump’s authority. I’m also suspecting that their unconstitutional rules will only apply to true Patriot presidents. Congress has been all to willing to conceed it’s power over the last several decades. Let them taste the results of those decisions.

Finally, where does the Constitution demand the establishment of the Pentagon, and make the US president submissive to their decisions?

It seems we have several Congress critters who don’t have a clue as to how our government is designed to work. And these same critters pointed the finger at Trump’s seeming ignorance?

What a bunch of Bozos! No wonder our country is in trouble!

The whole proposal is grandstanding. They couldn’t even put the words in to prevent him from removing troops from SK because they know they cannot do so. The best they could do is say Trump has to discuss it with the Pentagon first.

Since Trump is the CIC that is a non starter.

The amendment “would help prevent the President from making a rash decision..."

TDS is making them totally insane.

During WWII, didn’t Patton have to get approval from the privates under his command before he could give them orders?

So now they care about national security? What a joke! This is their way of showing their hatred for Trump and their wish to scuttle everything he does.
