He didn't use chemical weapons.  Zyklon B was a pesticide, not a weaponized chemical agent.  It's no different than if he had used Raid in the camps.  It's ridiculous that I even have to say this, but this point of fact in no way minimizes the horrors of the holocaust.

I give him a break because he made a true statement.  The Wehrmacht never deployed chemical weapons of any kind.  People want to be outraged and they see a point of distinction they can wedge a crowbar into.  Anyone with a brain and without an agenda knows what the man meant.

I view it the same way as Obama's 57 states blunder.  People raked Obama over the coals, but does anyone really think Obama doesn't know how many states there are?  By the same token does anyone think Spicer is not aware of the holocaust?  I'm mortally sick of idiots being outraged.  I'm sure Maxine Waters will cite this as further evidence that Trump needs to be impeached.
