Pete Buttigieg - We all know that the most serious, sober, and important job of a President is to decide whether and when to order troops into combat. Because American lives are on the line, and because of the dreadful cost of war, it is to be done only when there is no real alternative. A last resort.  But no one seriously believes that is what happened here. America is at war, and the President shows little interest in justifying it to the American people, let alone seeking a declaration from Congress as required by American law.
