“President Trump is the commander in chief, he has the responsibility to take action when he sees issues coming up that are going to create problems for our country. Number one, He did notify Congress under the War Powers Act. He did it within 48 hours of the time in which there were imminent hostilities that might occur. So he's followed that part of it. Second of all, there are 60 days here in which he can respond, and it could be extended to 90 days.” (02:41–02:50)
