The advantage wasn't for Assad more likely Russia.

Why would Russia want to put more pressure on the US to attack Assad and destroy his weapons and delivery systems? If Russia wanted to do that, why would it want the very thing used, a chemical weapon attack, which international opinion would be morally and legally against?

Because their objective is to stir the pot.

And if Russia was colluding with Trump, why would it want to pressure Trump to do something that would help bring him down?

The collusion has always been about Russian interests. They are running this show.

Do you have a romance with the Deep State? Have the CIA, the FBI, and the rest of them always acted honorably? Have they not illegally killed? Haven't they helped to start wars before? I don't know if Deep State had a hand in this or not. You, of course, are damn sure it didn't.

Does the Deep State even exist? I was just quoting my Michael Flynn's son's tweet.
