^^^ Which US President signed

Trump of course. The order actually used India as an example to justify the ban from what i remember reading from few days ago.

I think the fact that people close to Trump are seriously even considering removing him from office right now with just days to go before his term ends is because he has unlimited presidential powers till noon January 20th without any checks. But yes, technically only Congress can "declare" war.

I think the more pressing concern is him declaring war on his own nation. LOL.
