It started with an AP tweet:
BREAKING: US officials: US attacks Syrian air base with about 60 missiles after Syrian chemical weapons attack.
-- The Associated Press (@AP) April 7, 2017
Critics were quick to get this old Trump tweet trending again:
The President must get Congressional approval before attacking Syria-big mistake if he does not!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 30, 2013
Several other people also reacted:
So @POTUS cares enough about the Syrian people to launch 50 Tomahawks but not enough to let the victims of Assad find refuge & freedom here.

Trump will bomb Syria, but won't the let the children who are being bombed into the United States.

A reminder that those babies we all saw being gassed will be banned from the US if Potus gets his way.

While we all condemn the atrocities in Syria, the United States was not attacked.

It's sad that politicians can't find money for education, clean water or healthcare but they can spend millions to "send a message to Syria"

Trump on Syria: "No child of God should suffer such horror." BUT NO WAY, NOPE. THEY CAN'T COME HERE.

No politics tonight. Asking we say a prayer for the people of Syria, especially the children. They live & die under the regime of a sadist.
