Now that a President has actually DONE something about Assad crossing the ‘Red Line’ of chemical weapon use, Syrians are grateful.
They are so grateful that they have used Bashar al-Assad’s (ironic) slogan ‘We Love You’ and merged it with President Trump’s Twitter photo.

There are some Syrians that don’t think that President Trump is heartless.
They just think that a mass exodus of Syrians isn’t the answer.
