    Except for Trump calling it a war numerous times, and last year him changing the name to the department of war.

    But totally not a war. He’s just planning on sending in troops on the ground for funsies.

      It’s the same legal precedent America has used for every war since WW2. Regardless of legal limbo about “declaring war”, it’s probably more correct to call it a war than not.
