Commander-in-Chief is a title, or (military) rank.  Not an office.
If the C-in-C steps out of line, s/he can be courts-martialed.  If
found guilty (in due accordance to the Code of Military Justice),
then s/he is convicted and sentence can be carried out.

Article I, Section 8.  Only the Congress has authority to declare war.

No president is above the law.

>They will tell you and refer to the articles of impeachment...

Donald J. Trump has been impeached for life.

>They want us to believe that they are basis as to why there should be
>restrictions placed on the Presidents ability to make war.

Article I, Section 8 remains part of the US Constitution.
If you would like a change to be made, I suggest trying to
amend the US Constitution.  Otherwise, only the Congress
will continue to have the authority to declare war ...

>The reason: The President is abusing his power and overstepping his
> authority.

The president does have a duty and an obligation to inform the
Congress what he does (or plans to do) in matters of national security.
Especially when it concerns engaging the US military in acts of war.

The House still has time to include such acts before Speaker Pelosi
hands over articles of impeachment ...

Conviction in the Senate does not require having to prove a case
beyond reasonable doubt.

>So that was the best that they could come up with...

Donald J. Trump has been impeached for life.
That is a fact.  Not even the Senate can do a thing
to change that basic fact.  Donald J. Trump has to
wear the "I" word on his head for the rest of his
natural life.  And then, after he is dead and gone,
the "I" word will remain on his gravestone, where
the stain will be engraved forever.

>The whole things stinks, bottom-line, the left hates him more
>then they love their country.

He can always get the last laugh by having his remains
cremated and then placed in the left's favorite shrine -
on Liberty Island, near the Statue of Liberty.
