A "real" war would normally need the usual Congress 2/3rds to pass, but that is only in a real declared war situation. There have only been 5 declared wars in US history. The last one was WWII. Every war since has been by direct of the President under the name conflict. Then you have the "Continuity of Government" amendment and note that Pres. Bush jr. enacted that one during 9-11, then there's the Patriot Act, Homeland Security, and of course that one, Homeland Security or in its real name, "National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive" is a real eye opener. "The National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive (National Security Presidential Directive NSPD 51/Homeland Security Presidential Directive HSPD-20, sometimes called simply "Executive Directive 51" for short), signed by President of the United States George W. Bush on May 4, 2007, is a Presidential Directive establishing a comprehensive policy on the federal government structures and operations in the event of a "catastrophic emergency". Such an emergency is defined as "any incident, regardless of location, that results in extraordinary levels of mass casualties, damage, or disruption severely affecting the U.S. population, infrastructure, environment, economy, or government functions." [1]" .....................Notice the emergencies listed. Pretty broad use of emergencies in order to circumvent Congress. And look who signed it.
Don't forget "Military Orders".................." Military Order. Twelve military orders were issued between 1939 and 1948. No such directives were published in the Federal Register until 2001, when George W. Bush issued a controversial military order on the detention, treatment, and trial by military tribunals of noncitizens alleged to be terrorists.[43][44]" Terrorists is the key word.
And quoting Whip: " Remember at the SOTU speech when he talked about terrorists being declared enemy combatants."

Now reread what the Executive Order states.........................

"I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, find that the prevalence and severity of human rights abuse and corruption that have their source, in whole or in substantial part, outside the United States, such as those committed or directed by persons listed in the Annex to this order, have reached such scope and gravity that they threaten the stability of international political and economic systems. Human rights abuse and corruption undermine the values that form an essential foundation of stable, secure, and functioning societies; have devastating impacts on individuals; weaken democratic institutions; degrade the rule of law; perpetuate violent conflicts; facilitate the activities of dangerous persons; and undermine economic markets. The United States seeks to impose tangible and significant consequences on those who commit serious human rights abuse or engage in corruption, as well as to protect the financial system of the United States from abuse by these same persons.

I therefore determine that serious human rights abuse and corruption around the world constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, and I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat."

All of the contingencies for a Pres. to declare a National Emergency under FEMA, the Homeland Security Act, the Patriot Act, and the COG act are all there. Adding amendments to the UCMJ allowing Military Tribunals for civilians arrested of Treason and Sedition gives the Military the power to try civilians under those stated circumstances.
Whether we think its a good thing or a bad thing doesn't matter, the deed is done. And notice that once again, Pres. Trump is using some of the resolutions enacted by Deep State directed Presidents, Congressmen, and Senators against them. Many of these resolution type laws have a limited time span, so unless they are reenacted or voted on, they cease to continue.
We could go on and on with this debate on "declared" war, but it won't go any where because of all the back doors created by former Gov. employees. There will be Military Tribunals after Jan. 1 2019 and civilians will be prosecuted under treasonous and seditious acts against the Government. That is where this false FISA and election fraud is heading to.
