He still hasn’t changed my mind and I am hoping my congress critters in NY still vote no on any bill that allows a military strike.

He is in a tough spot, lots of nuance but there’s a bit of a conundrum here. He does speak of a great moral responsibility to act, he still maintains he has the authority to act, but he might not use that authority without congressional, un, or international blessings. Ironically, if he really believed in the moral imperative of military action then he would use that authority instead of seeking approval elsewhere. He kind of nuanced himself into a corner. One of the few things that might sway me on the use of military force is the use of military force. As long as the president has doubts, I do too.
