Former President Donald Trump criticized the recent vote on the Venezuela war powers resolution, stating it "greatly hampers American Self Defense and National Security." He expressed concerns that the resolution impedes the President"s authority as Commander in Chief. Trump also declared the War Powers Act to be "Unconstitutional."
