This is just my opinion;
I feel like the president should have told Congress. He should have discussed the options with them before deploying troops. Also, the House Armed Services Committee should have discussed things in a better way rather than demanding things from the president. Congress seems to be in the right since the War Powers Act requires the president to let Congress know within two days of sending US troops overseas. The president didn’t talk with them, and then he didn’t let them know very soon after.
The National Constituent Assembly wanted to create a Constitutional Monarchy. One of the major complaints of the of the French people with the monarchy was the unchecked power. The King and Royal family could operate however they wanted. They were "above the law". This aggravated the people. Many were extremely poor and starving. They couldn't afford the simple basics like bread and milk to feed their children and yet the Royal family lived in lavish luxury and were demanding more and more taxes.
The questioned it because mot many people wanted to go to war and fight a war that we shouldent have been involved in<span />
