WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - US President Donald Trump criticized on Thursday a House of Representatives vote to limit his war powers, describing it as meaningless and poorly timed amid ongoing negotiations to end the conflict with Iran.
"Yesterday, in a meaningless vote, the House voted, 4 bad Republicans and all of the Dumocrats, to limit my War Powers, right in the middle of my final negotiations to end the War with the Islamic Republic of Iran," Trump said on Truth Social.
He questioned who would take such an unpatriotic action, highlighting that those involved were well aware of the status of the sensitive talks.
The initiative was supported by 215 lawmakers on Wednesday, while 208 voted against it. Along with the Democrats, four Republican lawmakers supported the resolution: Tom Barrett, Warren Davidson, Brian Fitzpatrick, and Thomas Massie.
