Trump: 'Perfectly executed strike'

President Trump on Saturday praised the "perfectly executed" strikes against Syria, which were carried out the previous night by the U.S, the United Kingdom, and France in response to a deadly chemical weapons attack.

"A perfectly executed strike last night," Trump wrote on Twitter. "Thank you to France and the United Kingdom for their wisdom and the power of their fine Military. Could not have had a better result. Mission Accomplished."

"So proud of our great Military which will soon be, after the spending of billions of fully approved dollars, the finest that our Country has ever had. There won’t be anything, or anyone, even close!" he added in another tweet," he wrote.

Trump announced on Friday that he had ordered the U.S. military to launch a "precision strike" against Syria, directed at chemical weapons production facilities.
