Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) at a rally in Oklahoma blasted President Trump’s decision to bomb Iran and enter the U.S. into Israel’s war with Tehran.
Sanders broke the news to the crowd in Tulsa, which began chants of “no more war.”
“I agree,” Sanders told the crowd. “Not only is this news that I’ve just heard alarming . . . but it is so grossly unconstitutional. All of you know, that the only entity that can take this country to war is the U.S. Congress. The president does not have the right.”
Only Congress has the power to declare war under the U.S. Constitution, though presidents in both parties have carried out military strikes on adversaries without prior approval from the legislative body.
Lawmakers in both parties have been unnerved in recent days by the saber-rattling over the possible U.S. entry to Israel’s bombing of Iran. Trump just days ago said he would be making a decision in the next two weeks about bombing Iran.
