Donald Trump actually said...

Congratulations to our great military men and women for representing the United States, and the world, so well in the Syria attack.

The President explained the strikes were taken to degrade the Syrian military's ability to conduct further chemical weapons attacks.

...goodwill and friendship was formed, but only time will tell on trade.

It is in this vital national security interest of the United States to prevent and deter the spread and use of deadly chemical weapons.
