The last president to ask for a declaration of war was FDR 70 years ago.

That's true. They all ride on the unConstitutional War Powers Act.

Then, even if Congress wants to pull the plug on funding, TPTB will just scream "what about the troops? You're not going to fund them?"

NO! And, we want them back on our fucking soil.

Yeah, congress is chicken shit, If congress passed a declaration of war then everyone couldn't blame everything on the president.

That's basically it. See, the War Powers Act is the first Act I can think of that is seriously UnConstitutional, off the top of my head.

The next President of the USA will be the last President of the USA as we knew it.
It's all good!
