Uh, Congress does that goofy ass. The President can't go it alone or did you forget?
I'm sorry you're too senile to remember the the war powers act.
I'm also too senile to remember when war with Russia was declared. Stupid ass.
Russia wasn't there then, the first chem attack was in 2014, Russia didn't get involved till 2015. Yep, you're senile.

I may or may not be senile but there is no war powers act without a declaration of war. Sorry pal.
Poor thing.
The War Powers Resolution requires the President to notify Congress within 48 hours of committing armed forces to military action and forbids armed forces from remaining for more than 60 days, with a further 30-day withdrawal period, without a Congressional authorization for use of military force (AUMF) or a declaration of war by the United States. The resolution was passed by two-thirds of Congress, overriding a presidential veto.

Oh, you're right. I cam just imagine how gun ho that would've been to send Troops without Congress approval.
