Senator Rand Paul continues to rail against President Donald Trump’s aggressive Venezuela policy. 

Paul said on Fox News Tuesday, “I’m kind of old-fashioned, I like to obey this thing called the Constitution. The Constitution says that war only occurs when it’s declared by Congress. The president doesn’t have the power to take the country to war.”

“Now if he does, he wouldn’t be the first president to obey the Constitution, but I think we should obey the Constitution because it makes war less likely.” He continued, “This would be a war of choice, so it would be an offensive war, albeit it a war to get rid of people most of us find distasteful, but it would be unconstitutional for the president to do this alone. So if he thinks he wants war with Venezuela, he should come ask permission from Congress.”

Paul has teamed up with several Democratic Senators to try to pass a war powers resolution to prevent Trump from starting a war with Venezuela. The Republican Senator has also criticized the war on suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. He has referred to the strikes as “extrajudicial killings.”

Senator Chris Coons said Trump risked “sleepwalking” into regime change. 

The Democratic Senator told MS NOW’s Deadline: White House, “I’m afraid that Secretary Pete Hegseth and President Trump are sleepwalking us into a war with Venezuela, and that regime change and access to the critical mineral resources and oil and gas of Venezuela is the real purpose and real goal here.”
