Trump should rein in his impulses and set a better example
Editor:
Isn’t it time we demand that our commander in chief exercise some self-discipline, rein in this tongue, and set an example for our young people?
When I heard that our chief executive used an “f” bomb in referring to Iranian and Israeli conduct, I thought surely that could not be. But, then, what that he does—or says—should shock us at this point?
Yes, the original Constitution stipulates that Congress shall have the power to decide when war is justified. And yes, the person we elect President could be impeached for ordering the United States military to strike Iran without the approval of Congress.
A case might be made that he could be charged by the House of Representatives—and if convicted in the United States Senate—removed from office for crossing yet another point of no return.
