Launched from navy ships in the eastern med. so the president chose a very minimalist response, and frankly since that time theres been not been a lot of follow-up either on the diplomatic front or any front and assad has used conventional weapons and even other chlorine and other chemical weapons against his own people throughout the past year so the president really is facing a similar situation but where in effect assad is calling his bluff and the president has emboldened assad by giving a l...

Bluff. this is something he wants to do. and the president is emboldened by being the first mover in a lot of these situations, doing something that no prior president has ever done before. that is something that really gives him a rise, and that is a situation that advisors to presidents clinton, bush and obama are looking at this and say, we all agree that china needed to be held to account for its trade transgressions, but this isnt the way we would have gone about it because of the consequen...

Throttling them. >> anybody in the white house, anybody at all, worried about what this could mean for 2020? >> good question. i think there are some concerns about that. i think the president feels very strongly that he is speaking to some of his core voters with this while it could have an impact on those agricultural states, theres some manufacturing states in the rust belt that came around for donald trump. let me share with you some information passed on by my colleague hallie jackson who j...

And one point that hes been reiterati reiterating as he did to these reporters was, blame china, not trump. >> peter baker, last word to you. what happens next? >> well, if we knew what was going to happen next, we wouldnt need to have this program, thats the great thing about this. this is a presidency where what happens next is the constant preoccupation of everybody in washington and around the world, in beijing and pyongyang and europe and so forth. what weve seen so far, though, with the st...
