Asked if the WH presented any evidence that chemical weapons had been used. He says no, doesn't think so, that evidence is coming later supposedly.
King defends the use of force to take out chemical weapons, and also defends the strike overall.
King notes that Congress has abdicated the power to declare war.
Tapper asks if the Obama admin was naive in 2013, trusting Russia to restrain Syria. Both Tapper and King agree Trump was right, Russia failed to restrain Syria. King notes that Syria is still bombing its own people.
Asks about NYT story that criminal investigation into Cohen, and the claim that investigation is more threatening to Trump than SC Mueller, and could show evidence of Russian collusion. King agrees and adds that it is most important to (pretend) that the NY investigation is unrelated to Mueller's investigations.
Preet up next ...

You could say in 1863 when Grant besieged Vicksburg the the Lincoln regime was still "bombing its own people".
