Despite it was opposed by Donald Trump, eight republicans voted in favor of the resolution in the Senate.

"If my hands were tied, Iran would have a field day. Sends a very bad signal. The Democrats are only doing this as an attempt to embarrass the Republican Party. Don’t let it happen! It is very important for our Country’s SECURITY that the United States Senate not vote for the Iran War Powers Resolution. We are doing very well with Iran and this is not the time to show weakness," tweeted Trump on Wednesday. (ILKHA)
