Does anyone really care about Matt Gaetz voting with Democrats on a resolution about restricting the President's power to wage conflict in Iran?

Yes. President Trump has enough opposition & doesn't need Gaetz voting against him.
I care, I understand his concern but in these Extraordinary Times he should have contented hisself with making a protest as he stands with God, POTUS, Freedom and America.
He's been a Good Boy pretty much up to this, I think...so I forgive him.
But I do care, youbetcha.
There are no republicans.
Except Trump.
Create your own bill and force them to side with you.
Gaetz is acting like a cuck.
Rand cucked to Pierre Delecto after Rove & Willard rigged the primary against Ron Paul. Bernied him.
Where were Rand Paul's strict libertarian values then? And he picks on Guiliani in Festivus rants?
Fire your chief advisor and look in the mirror, Rand. You too Gaetz. You are both REPRESENTING YOUR CONSTITUENTS NOT TELLING THEM WHAT YOU THINK.
Seriously do elected officials ever aim to represent their district? Wtf is the God-complex wrong with people? Constituents are your BOSS.
I understand his sentiment, but he's lost sight of the bigger picture. He should really be looking to end the "war on terror" instead of supporting this small partisan attack.
Yes. This isn’t about restoring Constitutionality. It’s about shackling Trump. Where were demonrats when 0bama was running his endless drone wars?
Congress has the power of the purse. They came up with War Powers Act. Lie in the bed you made, bitches!
I think Gaetz voted this way to strip Dems of their claim to being the only ‘bipartisan’ party after the impeachment vote.
He prob asked for a few volunteers and promised to lead by example and offer cover by being the media face.
Now Dems can’t condemn Rs of being a mindless controlled mass.
If Dems try to discredit by saying this resolution was meaningless and a ‘safe’ vote, then Rs can charge Dems with wasting more time on meaningless acts.
The biggest thing to remember is this resolution has no power. It doesn’t restrict DJT in any way, is not enforceable, attaches no consequences.
As Jim Jordan said, ”This is the type of resolution we pass to recognize Soap Box Derby Day.”
The only reason I vote for any other GOPer is because GEOTUS tells me to.
Trump doesn't have the power to wage war on Iran without a declaration.
BUT Trump does have the power to take out a terrorist.
It's not hard to understand that. Idk why Rand, Lee and Gaetz are having such a problem with it.
Trump didn't declare or start a war.
Yes! I have scrubbed him from my like list! He is not a true supporter of Trump.
Fuck Gaetz.
