@SW-User Isn't it Congress' job to authorise military action ?

@RodionRomanovitch Sure. But he can override their decisions.

No he can’t he maybe president but he has very little authority in most things I believe congress gives authority if a war should go a head or not @SW-User

@SW-User But why is that clown in the WH now waiting for Saudi Arabia to tell him what to do ?

Is US foreign policy now dictated in Riyadh ?

@Mona86 YES, he can. It's called a veto. However, congress CAN override the veto.

@RodionRomanovitch Because he is a friend of the oil man. He will gladly suck his "appendage" if told to do so if it means access to oil.
