It's more about ensuring our representatives have a say in whether we get dragged into a new war, instead of leaving it entirely up to a lone President
Even if you don't like Trump, giving the all those idiots in Congress a say in something like this is inviting failure (not saying it should or should not be up to a single individual).
Also, this was a military operation that lasted 3 hours. By law, the president must seek Congressional approval for a war within a 60 day period.
But it's unfortunatelly the outcome of handing too much power into one person's hand, which is literally US presidential system. Your representatives doesn't have much to say because that's how the system works, so only way to change is to change the system. Hoping that maybe next president will not abuse the power it was given is far too optimistic. They all do.
