Just when President Trump needs maximum flexibility to deal with the Iranian terror regime, two swamp creatures from opposite sides of the aisle are conspiring to tie his hands behind his back.
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) - a radical leftist who never met a dictator he didn't want to appease - has joined forces with Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) to force a war powers resolution vote next week. Their goal? Sabotage Trump's measured but firm approach toward the Islamic Republic as tensions escalate in the region.
This comes as the Trump administration has deployed the world's largest aircraft carrier to send a clear message to Iran's mullahs: don't test America's resolve. It's exactly the kind of peace-through-strength diplomacy that kept the world stable during Trump's first term.
Strange Bedfellows Unite Against America First
What makes this betrayal even more disgusting is that it's bipartisan stupidity at its finest. Khanna, who represents Silicon Valley elites who hate America, teaming up with Massie, who calls himself a conservative while consistently undermining Republican priorities when it matters most.
"We will not allow this administration to drag us into another endless war," Khanna reportedly stated, completely missing the point that Trump's strong deterrence is precisely what PREVENTS wars.
Remember, this is the same President who brokered the historic Abraham Accords, eliminated ISIS, and kept Iran in check without starting new conflicts. But apparently, that's not good enough for the establishment politicians who prefer weakness and appeasement.
Constitutional Crisis or Political Theater?
While these grandstanding politicians claim they're defending Congress's constitutional war powers, what they're really doing is broadcasting American weakness to our enemies. Iran's Revolutionary Guard is watching this political theater and laughing at our divided government.
President Trump deserves the full support of Congress as he navigates these dangerous waters with the steady hand that kept America safe before. Instead, he gets backstabbed by his own party and predictable obstruction from Democrats who'd rather see America fail than Trump succeed.
The question Patriots need to ask: whose side are Khanna and Massie really on?
