    The president does have the power during wartime… which the president doesnt get to decide, congress does.

    I don’t know how many times it needs to be pointed out to you, because even your own links specifically say it, but you’re wrong. It can be invoked during wartime OR when there is an invasion or predatory incursion which is at the discretion of the President. “Or” is the key word here that you don’t seem to be understanding.

    Congress decides when it is “wartime”.

    The President decides when there is an ongoing invasion or predatory incursion.

      There isn’t an invasion or predatory incursions though, that’s just factual. Otherwise the president of El Salvador couldn’t have come to the us, as they are the “enemy” “invading”. That’s what you don’t seem to be understanding
