The Constitution vests the power in the legislative branch to ensure decisions on war are made democratically, rather than by a single person.

It would take congress years to make a decision, and the amount of pork required would be phenomenal. Congress is dysfunctional.

Most congressmen are millionaires, but our nation is nearly $40 Trillion in debt.

Tariffs on foreign countries built America. Study history, and examine what the first president accomplished with them. Sadly, that history is not taught, mainly because of the soon to be dismantled department of education, and the deranged Trump hating media only wants their narrative heard.

Employers and investors have been incentivized for 35 years to move jobs and investment overseas. Glad to see them coming back to the USA.

Trump and Musk have no desire to help the people of the United States. They want only to help themselves even if it is at our expense.
