CALM THE FUCK DOWN NIGGER
If we were actually going to war I can guarantee we would've done something much larger and more deadly then just a single shitty cruise missile strike. It starts to get more serious if jet fighters are involved, but anything short of a land invasion means fucking nothing and you owe Donald a bit more trust by doing as many of his promises as possible, from the travel ban to building the wall, since his inauguration. He's not a dumb guy and its illogical to think he'd just suddenly switch to a globalist neo con tier cuck.
Also he may be using it as an excuse but I don't think for a second he's launching cruise missiles because of the "chemical attack" or at least not the full reason. First of all its doubtful the attack even happened but even assuming Trump has some intel that clarifies it did, Trump isn't the kind of guy to get emotional and possibly enter another middleeastern war that'll doom his chances at a 2nd term over emotion. If he was that kind of retard he wouldn't have won the election.
The reason he did this is more or less basically to send a message to Putin. The Donald has to get Russia's balls in a vice grip until Putin agrees to side with the US against the Chinese.
Here's the basic run down:
>Obama was pursuing a foreign policy of surrounding China and spreading US influence in the region
>tried to shack up with Vietnam, Phillipines, Japan, Taiwan, all the countries near China with TPP
>Trump doesn't wanna globalize like that
>so he wants to try to contain China from the other side
>he needs Russia
>so he wants to give Russia Syria/Ukraine
>so that Russia will work with him to constrict China
>but Putin is calling his bluff
>he doesn't think Trump has the balls to intervene to stop them in Ukraine or Syria anyway
>so he's got to make it seem like he will
>so that they budge and cooperate on China
