Likely Pig Pen was the one who signaled to Assad that his removal was no longer a US concern and there would be no US intervention. 5 days later, Assad used Sarin on a bunch of farmers who had the bad luck to be living in the wrong place. Most of the dead were women and children and there were a lot of dead.

Or Pig Pen told Dolt45 that Assad was his new best friend because Putin likes him. Who knows?

I would imagine Pig Pen was in this enough that it freaked Dolt45 out, he had a tantrum and sacked him.

That's only a vaguely educated guess, that Bannon's ignorant advice splashed shit all over Dolt. Or Dolt's ignorant actions were backed up by Bannon. The threat of Flynn's testimony might have been an additional propellant out the door, that the mess in Syria is the proximate cause.
