Trump has offered multiple explanations for the Iran strikes. Freedom for the Iranian people. A deal in two or three days. A war lasting four or five weeks. “It’s wartime jazz,” says WSJ reporter Alexander Ward. “He shoots first…and figures out the political objectives as he watches things unfold.”

GOP Sen. Ron Johnson on NPR today: Q: If you support the war, should Congress affirmatively vote on it? Johnson: "The primary restraint of any president of the United States is public opinion. What you don't want to do in a terribly divided Congress is hold a vote that shows us divided." 1/2
