More: It was one of two Democratic-led measures opposed by the White House that advanced in the GOP-led House. Lawmakers also passed a motion that would unlock a vote on sending aid to Ukraine.

[I]t passed 215-208, with four Republicans joining all Democrats in voting yes. Those Republicans were Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Thomas Massie of Kentucky, Tom Barrett of Michigan and Warren Davidson of Ohio.

The resolution directs Trump to remove U.S. armed forces from hostilities with Iran, unless Congress votes to declare war or authorizes the use of military force against the Middle East nation. It would not force him to end the conflict, however, and is a symbolic expression of disapproval of Trump's war with Iran.

Now it's meaningless as Trump would never sign such a bill, but it does show that his hold the Republicans in Congress is being diminished. They're coming to the realization that Trump, for all intents and purposes, is already a 'lame-duck' president, and it's only going to get more obvious as we approach the midterms if it continues to look like the Democrats will at least win back the House, if not the Senate as well.

But TrumpCultInc. said it's not a war so it couldn't have an end because it never had a beginning and even if it was a war and it did have an actual beginning and Congress then told Trump to end it he wouldn't do so because he doesn't give a rat's ass what Congress thinks.
