John,
Donald Trump just took military action against Iran—a nation that the United States is not at war with—on behalf of the government of Israel.
These attacks on Iran completely disregard the Constitution and the law—safeguards designed to prevent the president from taking unilateral military action or waging war without congressional approval.
Trump's aggressive posture toward Iran is not only a huge risk geopolitically—it is deeply unpopular with voters, and not just among Democrats: over 53% of Trump 2024 voters disapprove of military action against Iran and favor negotiation and peaceful resolution to the conflict.
