Steve Bannon is out at White House

By Bob Fredericks     |     August 18, 2017 | 12:44pm

Top presidential adviser Steve Bannon is out of a job at the White House, according to a new report.

President Trump’s chief of staff John Kelly is wrapping up a review of the West Wing staff and was expected to can the former Breitbart editor, the voice of the alt-right who has the president’s ear, Drudge reported.

Bannon had been on the outs with Trump before, but the president now suspects he was one of the main leakers in the administration, trashing his colleagues in the press.

Not surprising. Should have happened a long, long, long time ago. I am sure he is about 40% to blame for the WWE/National Enquirer intelligence level style of communication.

Trump Tells Aides He Has Decided to Remove Stephen Bannon

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/18/us/politics/steve-bannon-trump-white-house.html?mcubz=1&_r=0

Quote
President Trump has told senior aides that he has decided to remove Stephen K. Bannon, the embattled White House chief strategist who helped Mr. Trump win the 2016 election, according to two administration officials briefed on the discussion.

The president and senior White House officials were debating when and how to dismiss Mr. Bannon. The two administration officials cautioned that Mr. Trump is known to be averse to confrontation within his inner circle, and could decide to keep on Mr. Bannon for some time.

As of Friday morning, the two men were still discussing Mr. Bannon’s future, the officials said. A person close to Mr. Bannon insisted the parting of ways was his idea, and that he had submitted his resignation to the president on Aug. 7, to be announced at the start of this week, but it was delayed in the wake of the racial unrest in Charlottesville, Va.

Mr. Bannon had clashed for months with other senior West Wing advisers and members of the president’s family.

But the loss of Mr. Bannon, the right-wing nationalist who helped propel some of Mr. Trump’s campaign promises into policy reality, raises the potential for the president to face criticism from the conservative news media base that supported him over the past year.

I'm sure you have backup for the claim that Bannon had anything to do with comm ops. I used to listen to him on XM radio daily and he is quite capable of coherent and concise thought; something that the Trump admin has lacked from Day 1.

Bannon was boxed out. Hope Hicks?????

Gimme a break!

That being said, he will not go gently into that good night.

One cannot diss the President's foreign policy, pissing off the President, the SOS and National Security Advisors in the process, and expect to keep your job. 

Bannon is now telling people he resigned two weeks ago.

Whatever ... just go.

I'm not a huge fan of the Kushners, but this is all Bannon's fault.

Serious question: Have you (anyone) ever listened to him or do your impressions come from what has been written about him?

So now that Bannon's been banned bigly by his boss, will he burn his bridges and bounce back to Breitbart?

I'm guessing we will find out down the road Gary Cohn told Trump it was Bannon or him.

Bannon friend says Breitbart ramping up for war against Trump. "It's now a Democrat White House," source says.

I think this will do it!  Now, media will forgive @realDonaldTrump  and treat him totally fairly.  They admire weakness.

This president can do that all by his lonesome. He hardly needed a Steve Bannon for communications
skills like those. ;)

   Hopefully he'll be a constant contributor to Fox & Fluff, that'll really piss Trump off.

Those not jumping off the Trump Train are hopeful it's a Sun Tzu move, that Bannon and Trump are pretending to be mad at each other and Bannon will be an unofficial advisor.
