This was "alleged", sounds like a liberal fantasy to me. Bombing seemed a little more calculated to me.

Many of his public "statements" or potential governing actions are shit tests given to the public. He is constantly testing the waters to see if the pulse of his base has changed or holds true to what it was during the campaign. Politically savvy, but may come back to haunt him.

That was a staged justification for his first bombing, vehemently opposed by his base, after running as a Syrian non-interventionist. Elephants not in deep-state sights, Trump has more leeway here.

And it also turned out to be something of a publicity stunt, and a lot of his base went wild, at least the anti-establishment wing.
