A similar question was asked in September 2013 after the Syrian government admitted it owns chemical weapons and agreed to turn them over to international authorities for destruction.

I’m not surprised they portrayed it as a failure for Trump.

Fake news is the greatest danger to our country.

They’re against everything the President does. Period.

36% is still a decent percentage for a propagandist. I don’t think they’re going to let up.

No wonder the media needs to create some hype and fake news hysteria against Trump at the border to deflect the great progress he’s making.

And that is even with the BS from the media.

That means 52% is just the floor.

Oops! That didn’t work out so well for the media. Despite their spin, they weren’t able to convince the public it was a bad thing, and oh boy how they tried.

Similar? Really? Good ol' CNN...you can always count on them to denigrate a Trump achievement. So ICBM's capable of detonating nuclear warheads in Japan and the US poses the same threat as 55 gallon drums of chemicals sitting in a warehouse in the mid-East. Idiots.
