Obama followed US Constitution. Sought permission for airstrikes on Syria in 2013...

..yet the GOP / Congress REFUSED to vote on it.

Now that Syria has used chemical weapons on its own people, it's OBAMA'S fault for being "weak"?

Following the US Constitution is "weak"? I guess to Donald Trump, it is.

Interesting how the Weasel Trump aways blames someone else for any atrocity or anything bad -- whilst he takes CREDIT for the good work of others when anything good happens. This is the mark of a malignant narcissist. Refuses to do ANY of the work, wants all the credit. Refuses to take ANY responsibility, always blames others.

Syrian chemical weapons destroyed, but concerns continue, Obama says

President Obama says the elimination of Syria's declared chemical weapons stockpile marks an important achievement in the effort to counter the spread of weapons of mass destruction.

But while hailing that achievement, Mr. Obama says Syria now must follow through on its commitment to destroy its remaining declared chemical weapons production facilities.

Now under a new deranged incompetent administration, Assad is making chemical weapons.

Thank you, Mr. Precedent.
