If He Wages War Unilaterally, Trump Will only Be the Latest of Many Presidents to Do So
UNITED STATES, JUN 21 – Senator John Fetterman praised President Trump’s airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites and opposed legislation limiting presidential war powers, citing Iran’s nuclear threat and terrorism sponsorship.
- Donald Trump announced a successful airstrike against three Iranian nuclear sites, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan, with all planes safely out of Iranian airspace.
- This strike follows Trump's long-standing stance opposing endless wars and preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, a position he expressed publicly since 2000 and reiterated during his campaigns.
- Trump and others note that although there is logical reasoning for the strike, the move risks inflaming an already volatile region and provoking cycles of retaliation that could undermine diplomatic efforts.
- Trump described the event as a landmark occasion for America, Israel, and the global community, praised the efforts of American forces, and stressed that Iran must now agree to end the conflict.
- The attack could escalate tensions, potentially enabling extremist networks and increasing terror threats at home and abroad, reflecting the fragile global balance and long-term dangers of such interventions.

It is the Claude Rains School of Constitutio…
Trump promised not to wage "foreign wars." Now he has attacked Iran. Whether the war can be so easily accommodated is questionable.
