wrote. "You shouldn't be partners with a Gas Killing Animal who kills his people and enjoys it!"
Trump has been weighing his course of action in Syria following a
suspected chemical attack in the country. Trump described the attack as "sick" and criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iran for supporting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Trump threatened that there would be a "big price to pay" for the deaths.
