Well, obviously. Did everyone just collectively forget that the constitution allows for a president to take military action without congressional approval for 90 days? What he did was clearly the wrong move, but I’m pretty sure it’s constitutional. Honestly, the problem is the constitution itself.
The constitution allows for no such thing. The constitution is pretty crystal clear that only the congress can declare war.
The congress passed a law saying the president can take military action that then comes under review by the congress. The President can do that without a declaration of war.
This power the president has is one granted by the legislature not by the constitution.

Okay, so I was wrong about the particulars. But, the president does have the power to take military actions. Just like he did.
