Dems Who Voted No Gave Trump His War

Four Democratic defectors just handed Trump the Iran war vote. If they'd voted yes, it fails 216-215. This is the pattern. Party leadership lets a handful of members take the cover vote, the resolution dies, and everyone gets to pretend they tried. The dissent is theater, the compliance is real. The first Democrat willing to say that out loud becomes the only Democrat worth listening to.

For those keeping score at home: if the 4 Dem defectors had voted "Yes", the resolution would have passed 216-215, restricting Trump's illegal and catastrophic war with Iran.
