        Bush did it twice during his presidency alone. Once in 2001 and again in 2002.

        You said "military action," not "precision cruise missile strike." So...

        This also isn't a partisan issue to me, though it seems like you're trying to make it one.

        They were warned so appropriate measures were taken to avoid Russian casualties...which would make things 1,000x worse. Get a f***king clue

        So World War 3 wouldn't happen within hours of this, that's why he notified them.

        Right because they must be informed within 48 hrs.... it's called a window. Read first...

        Completely missing the point there. Read it again in the context of the tweets to which I was responding. Key words "in advance."
