What problems did US President Lyndon Johnson have with the US Supreme Court and the Tonkin Gulf resolution?
ChuckSiata
The Tonkin Gulf resolution passed the US Congress and of course there were significant challenges to it. No judge sustained the Vietnam War on theory of the inherent power of the US presidency. Some judges even disagreed that the Resolution even had constitutional relevance.
