President Trump loves to torment the Democrats in congress…And since they all suffer from Trump Derangement Syndrome anyway, it’s getting easier and easier to do.
Since the Democrats complained that they were not told about the Soleimani attack in advance, Trump decided to tell them in advance in a tweet.
Here it is:
These Media Posts will serve as notification to the United States Congress that should Iran strike any U.S. person or target, the United States will quickly & fully strike back, & perhaps in a disproportionate manner. Such legal notice is not required, but is given nevertheless!

Just how many Americans would he have to kill and maim to make it proportionate?
Inquiring minds want to know.
American leaders’ highest priority is to protect American lives and interests. But we cannot put the lives of American servicemembers, diplomats and others further at risk by engaging in provocative and disproportionate actions. https://t.co/o0R8YVJMNW

As expected, the Democrats, with Pelosi leading the way have taken the side of Iran’s terrorist regime.
Pelosi lashed out at the President on Saturday after a formal notification of the drone strike was delivered to Capitol Hill.
The White House informed Congress of the drone strike that killed General Qassim Soleimani, a top commander of Iran’s al-Quds Force at Baghdad’s International Airport.
The White House delivered a formal, entirely classified notification to Congress on Saturday informing lawmakers of the airstrike that took out several Iranian military officials, fulfilling its duties under the War Powers Act, the NY Times and WaPo reported.
Pelosi was furious that the Trump admin classified the notification and accused Trump of deliberately keeping Congress and Americans in the dark.
President Trump is correct; he has the authority to strike back without permission from Congress.
