Republican Congressman Tim Burchett of Tennessee appeared on NewsNation tonight and provided a reminder for all of the Democrats who are suddenly claiming that Trump can’t act on Iran without congressional approval.
Burchett points out that Obama bombed eight different countries without congressional approval.
Democrats think no one remembers anything. When Obama was president, he could pretty much do anything he wanted with zero pushback from his party or the media. He could do no wrong in their eyes.
Partial transcript via Overton News:
BURCHETT: “President Obama bombed 8 countries without Congressional approval.”
“So I think it’s a little disingenuous for the Democrats start saying this is unprecedented and you’ve got the most stable regime, outside of probably the Chinese, in the whole right now.”
“And they’ve killed Americans within recent memory.”
“Is this the revenge tour? Maybe be a little bit. But you poke the bear you get it.”
“Or you poke the bull, you get the horns and the horns.”
“And the horns right now are Donald J. Trump.”
“And he’s letting an enemy of this country know how we feel about them.”

Burchett made the same point in a post on Twitter/X.
Save me your outrage. Obama bombed 8 countries without Congress approval and Clinton bombed an aspirin factory to cover up his affair.

They hung kids for tweets. They cut women’s eyes out for wearing makeup. They threw gay folks off of buildings. They murdered Americans. Who will grieve for this dirtbag? pic.twitter.com/jO6bct5fLj

Democrats must also think that no one remembers Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, which ended up killing 13 service members.
So far, no U.S. troops have been killed as a result of Trump’s actions in Iran.
