The Constitution grants specific powers to specific branches of the Federal government and also states that any power not granted to them in the Constitution was reserved for the states.
If the power to declare war is not granted to the executive branch by the constitution then, per that same Constitution, that power is not available to that branch.
Congress was granted the power to declare war.
No one else.
So no one else possesses that power.
The various branches of government are absolutely and without question limited to the specific powers granted it by the Constitution and no more.
