Rahm finds common ground with Trump on Syrian missile strikes
Mayor Rahm Emanuel agrees with one decision that President Donald Trump has made: the cruise missile strike against an air base in Syria after the Assad regime killed 86 Syrians with chemical weapons. “There’s a standard when chemical weapons were used in World War I. It was a declaration where the world was gonna be,” the mayor said. “And there’s one person that can make sure that we hold up our values—our human values and values across the waterfront, and that’s the [president of] the United States of America. So, I support it.” [Sun-Times]
