You don't have to vote to end it. It's illegal. Have the national guard of your respective states arrest/detain Trump and his cabinet, and appointees. Or force his plane down if it flies in your states airspace. That's what should be happening

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary. No personal or friend group blogs and no self-promotion. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and re-hosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing other users of being bots or paid actors.
- No memes, trolling, misinformation, or low-effort posts/comments (including reposts). If you see posts like this that anger you, do not engage. Report, block, and live a happier life than they do. Any slap-fight is subject to comment removals. Fights full of rule violations will result in temporary bans to cool off.
- No manipulating votes via bots or alt accounts; this will result in permanent bans. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in an account ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be permanently banned.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules and use critical thinking when reading, posting, and commenting. Users that repeatedly have comments or posts removed, weaponize reports, or violate the code of conduct, will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users. The reason(s) behind moderator action(s) are publicly available through the Modlog.

Too many people are either scared or complicit. The US needs some of those heroes they keep inventing for their blockbusters. They probably only need the power of courage and willingness to sacrifice themselves for the greater good.
Only being the operative word.
What are the steps this hero should take?
Be a politician and give direct, honest, and true answers to questions.... For a start.
People are still comforting themselves with the delusion that the threat of consequences will keep Trump in line even though the consequences are never implemented
Trump has literally never faced consequences in his entire life.
You don’t vote away something that was never authorized by Congress in the first place.
But I was told it wasn't a war
When you have a king, the legislature can only make suggestions.
So, that means it will happen this time, right? I mean, it IS the third time, that must mean something. Third time's the charm?
Nope because the Senate still has to agree
absolutely. Trump has to obey the law, it's the law, duh.
Wait... I thought congress overwhelmingly supported the U.S. actions in Iran... Didn't Trump's people just say this in the news today?
Haven't we ended the war lke 50 times? So seems to me they're a bit behind! ;-)
