Watch him here. It crossed a lot of lines for me. When you kill innocent children, innocent babies, babies, little babies, with a chemical gas that is so lethal, people were shocked to hear what gas it was, that crosses many, many lines, beyond the red line. Trish all right and, of course, we are learning new details about steve bannon, his removal in the National Security council.
