Trump doesn't need a formal declaration of war according to the cited article.

The article is about tariffs and Mexico, not Afghanistan.

I did when ice referenced it and pretty sure Afghanistan wasn't mentioned, but I'll revisit it and check.

I did and most of his post was a quote of the article which I just reread and it mentions Mexico, China, Syria, Libya, Nicaragua, Panama, Sierra Leone and Somalia, but not Afghanistan. It also points out that US special forces in Syria and Libya would the conflicts that would give him tariff raising authority.

If you read all of post 4 and note that in post 3 ice said "I am sure there would be court battles" followed by the article, which is the post I was responding to, you may see that I was pointing out Mexico is very different the other countries past Presidents have used these laws as a basis to raise tariffs. I think this is why Trump will have a very difficult time implementing his punitive tariffs against Mexico and why I thought ice made the point quoted above.

Quit trolling. There is legislation allowing Trump to raise tariffs even without a war. The Trade Act Of 1974. Plus The President has a lot of power in this area.
Is your next post going to deny current existing law?

Thanks for confirming Congress hasn't declared war on Afghanistan. Why did you bring Afghanistan up in post 9, which was your reply to post 6?

In post 3 I asked a question about Congress and tariffs with regard to Trump and Mexico and in post 4 you linked to a CNN article that answered my question.

You were implying that the article was not applicable since there was no formal declaration of war. There doesn't have to be. Now you will say you were not implying anything.

I don't think the War on Terror is over.
