Technically the President can’t go to war without Congressional approval but has a lot of options as Executive Actions, afaik. It would be within his restrictions to launch some sort of attack at Syria and Clinton, Bush II and Obama all might were they in office now.
Flag waving (at the cost of a batch of money and brown lives) or tough guy yelling on Twitter are fantastic distractions. No matter what happens 45 continues to terrorize *us*. Have I mentioned lately I fucking detest him?
