WASHINGTON (Dunya News) - US President Donald Trump has strongly criticized Republican members of the House of Representatives who participated in a vote concerning war powers.
President Trump said that the actions of some Republican lawmakers were irresponsible and unpatriotic.
According to him, Democrats oppose him and are more interested in seeing him fail than in serving the country's interests.
He stated that the vote took place during the final stage of ongoing negotiations aimed at ending the conflict with Iran.

Trump argued that the Republican members who voted against him were engaging in political posturing rather than acting in the national interest.
The US president further said that the House of Representatives voted in favour of limiting his war powers, but described the House vote as a completely meaningless exercise.
Trump added that the lawmakers who voted against him were seeking cheap publicity and that their actions were motivated by political considerations.
