But the flaw of the US political system is not to restrict the power of an outgoing president to make decisions that could put the country on the brink of war, or declaring war after he has been defeated in an election. He should not start a war when he is on the way out that would burden the next president.
That is exactly what US President Joe Biden wants to do. He authorised Ukraine to use USmade long-range missiles to be used against Russia. With Ukrainian soldiers unable to operate those missiles, obviously they would be operated by American military personnel.
That is a careless declaration of nuclear war, bound to be inherited by Donald Trump. Trump and Congress must stop Biden's Armageddon before we all perish in his foolish decision.
