      How about “our” ability to put down any protests against the Trump administration? Because that’s what this is going to lead to. You don’t want us to be able to kill people in other countries? Fine. But this is going to get people in this country killed if they have their way.

      We don’t always get to choose when a conflict is thrust upon us. If an ally or ourselves got attacked and we were unable to respond effectively, that would go very badly for us. It wouldn’t keep us out of the conflict, but a lot of people would die without effective leadership.
