only one way to find out

You're saying we should leave the middle east; what will happen?

we'll just have to see what happens

in the meantime we can save money

Thats not a great way to convince people

they don't need to be convinced

they don't have a say in it

*Senate*

trump can pull the troops out on his own

Without congress approval?

yes

congress never approved them to be there in the first place

because it's not a war

trump has like full control over the military

the only thing that exists there is like a u.n. resolution or something

What do you mean by full control?

full control, they only answer to him

Clearly checks and balance are in the shit in this theory

NOO

not for the military

the president is considered commander in chief for a reason

The military main job is to defend the constitution

Not to serve the president

the constitution tells them to obey his orders

and sure, if he gave an unconstitutional order

they don't have to obey

but he has pretty much full latitude to tell them what to do

he can micromanage troops as much as he wants

Where does it say in the constitution, the military has to obey the commander in chief?

you must obey orders of your superior

that's how it works

he is the superior of all

befehl ist befehl

How do we end wars?

leave

it's not even a war

nobody declared war

we are just hanging out and shooting people

Do you need congress to say when we end war in the middle east?

no because there is no war in the middle east

What does war on terror mean to you?
