Tuesday on MSNBC’s “All In,” Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) said House Democrats will not allow President Donald Trump to “bumble and stumble into war” with Iran.
Waters explained a National Defense Authorization Act amendment would stop funding for military action against Iran unless Congress declares war.
Waters said, “A lot is going on to try to make sure that we don’t allow this president making unilateral decisions to go into war and strike Iran, and we just think that any little incident could cause us to go in.”
She added, “We think he’s not having the advice of advisers who would make sure that he does not bumble and stumble into war. He doesn’t have anybody around him, he doesn’t have a defense secretary. He doesn’t have people — Mr. Bolton and Mr. Pompeo, they’re war hawks and we’re worried about the advice they’re giving him.”
