He still has 40% approval, for some, he can do no wrong.
If this happens, I wish someone in the US Army refuses an order to participate in the war, arguing that he will not follow illegal orders, because only Congress has the right to declare war. Assuming this goes to a non-military court, we would finally have a case against the president's ability to wage war which is very very clearly very unconstitutional.
But he can order non-war (8 weeks or whatever it was) actions?
But if Israel demands it, he will do it anyway.
So, this is what would do it? Not everything else?
Fine, whatever it takes, I guess, but I'm not buying it.
Yeah, because bombing them is obviously fine.
You say that sarcastically, but it is unironically true for the y'all queda crowd.
At the moment I’d worry more about the countries bombing most civilians: Israel, Russia and US&A. Great company.
He is not going to take a country of 80M people that is about the geographic size of 1/3 of the continental US with just a few thousand troops.
The only thing that will kill it is when the people who are maneuvering to seize power no longer need him to do so.
He wants some special operations stuff, not a full land invasion.
Once dictatorship's instantiated, then polls mean nothing.
April, looks like..
