“We do not want this. We did not ask for this. You did not consult us before starting this, and therefore we owe you nothing.”

We can say that, too. My congressional representatives were not allowed to debate or vote on starting a war that my tax dollars are financing.

Does that constitute taxation without representation?

Yes it does! And. It’s been going for some time.

No. They voted on war powers. One dem senator and 4 dem house voted with trump.

Don Draper's avatar

Actually, the war powers resolution the House and Senate voted on was to curtail America’s war with Iran instead, both chambers voted it down.

This was only after the war had already been started by tRump & Netanyahoo wasn't it?

Mary you are 100 percent correct he put us all in danger, we didn’t ask for this and the supreme court’s need to intervene and STOP HIM NOW if it’s not to late, how can he do whatever he wants without being held responsible? I can’t imagine what these idiots are so afraid of. He’s not in office long and they are cowards who will do anything to appease him yet the orange mess will cut them apart in a nano second. I’ve never seen this before in my life but everyday I am afraid of what is next and if you haven’t noticed the people in our country look exhausted again from him . He goes on rants at 2-3 am in the morning!!! Who with a normal brain does this? Good God please someone save our country now please

I never voted for him. He should be known as the biggest mobster in American history. Include the Kushners in that too.

Next November can be described as the opportunity to create a US Congress, House AND Senate, that can say no to the POS POTUS, before removing him from power and consigning him to courtroom attendance if not prison for the rest of his days, as well as stripping him and his family of the wealth acquired through his office as US president.

Israel is along for the ride. The real levers behind the Iran insanity are the Saudis. They win any way you slice it, starting with higher oil prices. And since the Saudis are the de facto Trump family trust fund, our president listens to what they tell him in phone calls that are never revealed. They said invade Iran, so he did.

Except they live right next door and are also being bombed. They're losing oil structure. I expect their chief murderer is not best pleased right now.

Thank you Mary! I have been referring to Donald Trump's behavior for more than a decade as toddleresque but the response from others has always been, well, that's just Donald Trump. I agree with that, but he has always had toddleresque behavior which he has been able to get away with. People think rich people are OK doing whatever they want to do! That is just plain wrong and telling the toddler "no" is a good idea, from earliest age onward. No one of consequence told this Trumpian toddler to stop and so he continues and drags us all down. The one good thing is that if the renewable energy folks have the resources, they should be pushing electric cars and solar panels and generators as quickly as they can so people will see that they do save money and do work without most of the side effects. Wind energy infrastructure needs to be pushed too while we are all down so we can know that oil needs to be gone and cutting off the Strait of Hormuz is not as bad a thing as people might think.

Should we be concerned that DJT will expand his illegal actions to places like Cuba to try to demonstrate his power? The impotent members of Congress should be checking him, but they have to grow a spine to do so.

donna's avatar

I expect that if he thinks he looks like he's failing to get his way in the Middle East, he will certainly attack Cuba. Sooner rather than later. He will keep going until he is stopped. And he won't be stopped until enough Republicans decide they're at risk, politically and economically. They will do their best to stay in control through Vance and company - so I suspect Article 25 would be their choice, rather than an oh-so-public impeachment. Or perhaps a 'convenient unfortunate illness' will take him out of their way. What I hope for is an election that is massively anti-trump - even in "safe" Republican districts and states. I think most of his corporate and political backers are most afraid of that, and they will try to avoid it by dumping the Donald, one way or another. I guess it depends on how crazy and fanatic they are.

Remember, in criminal law, the guilty pay the damages. Within five years, the US Government will have built thousands of mosques destroyed in the war.

You are amazing Mary. I hope the World politicians you said NO in our names us Europeans will hear you and spread your wisdom and knowledge about this man who does not deserve to be called a HUMAN he is a MENACE. Never seen since the years 1920 - 1945 and beyond with the Russians who are no better. My parents were 20 in 1939 France and I never saw them giggle or not afraid as I know can understand what I just could not understand as a little and as a young adult in France until now and I cannot asked them questions anymore. They are in my thoughts everyday. Thanks again Mary to be what you are. Amazing.

Glad my country Canada also said no (even thought we weren’t ‘asked’), and despite being economically bullied and our sovereignty repeatedly threatened directly by Trump for over a year. The fact that your country has been unable to stand up to this maniacal toddler yourselves is something to reflect on, because Trump as your president is a problem you have brought on yourselves but seem unable to meaningfully address

Sometimes the world has to close the barn door so one person stops letting the horses run wild.

Amen, and thank you again for your great clarity and courage. 'Our allies are beginning to understand something that people inside the U.S. government often pretend not to understand: weakening Donald politically is actually good for the United States, and it is good for the rest of the world.'

YES!!
