The reasoning is that basically every president in the last 5 decades or so has used the existing laws that generally permit presidents to use military force without first getting congressional approval. If that were unconstitutional then the laws should have been changed, but they’re allowed to stand, so it’s basically not. It’s a bit of a silly thing to try to impeach over. The precedence of that being constitutional is massive.
