Michael Savage took to Periscope amid U.S.-led airstrikes on Syria. The radio legend called the military operation “the greatest disaster of the Trump presidency.”

Partial transcript of Savage’s periscope follows:
“I know you are all pouring in and you want to know my opinion. Do I have to tell you what my opinion is? My opinion is very clear. This is the greatest disaster of the Trump presidency and it’s purely ‘Wag the Dog.’ There was no reason for this. None whatsoever. As a matter of fact, just yesterday General Mattis said there was no evidence Syria had done it. All of a sudden they are launching Tomahawk missiles. This is a disaster!”
Before broadcasting on Periscope, Savage tweeted, “We lost. War machine bombs syria. No evidence Assad did it. Sad warmongers hijacking our nation.”

President Donald Trump announced on Friday at an 9:00 PM press conference that the US would attack Syrian targets following the alleged gas attack by the Assad regime last weekend.
Shortly after, missiles started flying after the President’s announcement.
