Trump: "Who the f@&$ does this guy think he is?"
Axios ^ | August 19, 2017 | Mike Allen, Jonathan Swan

Posted on 08/19/2017 7:31:57 AM PDT by be-baw

Bannon didn't bother to go to work yesterday. He knew it was over.

At the end, Trump was beyond fed up, viewing Bannon as a self-aggrandizer who had built a personal narrative as the grand puppetmaster.

"Who the f**k does this guy think he is?" Trump has said incredulously to associates.

Axios' Jonathan Swan tells me it's no surprise Trump didn't issue a farewell message on Friday: The president can't stand Bannon at the moment. (Trump tweeted a belated "Thanks S" about Bannon on Saturday morning.)

But few people are ever really gone from Trumpworld, and we bet it won't be long before Bannon is regularly gossiping with Trump and counseling him.

Now we have a team in the WH that all thinks alike, so problem solved.

Why is it you never bitch about the slime balls in Congress? They all took an oath to support and defend our Constitution... You really need to get over your unhealthy obsession with the President's daughter and son-in-law. Their precious liberals would tear them limb to limb, if given an opportunity... Every time you bitch about his daughter I pray he does not read it on a ‘conservative’ website.. He is a better person than me to personally ignore how some calling themselves ‘right’, denigrate him though his children.

So, Bannon wasn't the source of insider leaks?

We’ve seen 2 generations go for the jugular in getting their profession off the ground by making outlandish stories that they know will raise eyebrows and get them started.. no matter how childish or how brash they have to be... just to be able to rake in the money from the only talent they have.. which is to be able to make up a lie about some influential person and they use that person for their gain!

The generations have digressed into ‘whatever it takes’ mode to get ahead and use anyone they can to make it work.

It might be called ‘success’... but it’s nothing more than banking on lies to get ahead. Honesty and loyalty... and statesmanship... and patriotism are all long gone.

No matter what Bannon does, this writer has already sown his wares..

Its amazing how many on this site take whatever news, or fake news as fact. Ive read some of Bannon’s quotes, and he is now free to go after the deep state without the constraints of a employee. He knows who is deep state within the administration. People need to really look closely on who the news source is.

Trump didn’t do a goodbye message because he’s not gone. He just changed offices. Media want to drive a wedge. It won’t work.

That’s the smokescreen. Look through it to see what’s really happening.

Fact: Pelosi was thrilled. McCain hated Bannon.

Fact, everyone left surrounding Trump is a globalist.

That is amazing. You pretty much can’t believe anything you read in the media without vetting it. You might enjoy reading the tweet series linked in post 4 and 28. That guy is a good follow on twitter.

“The FBI doesn’t announce investigations publicly ...”

LOL, since WHEN? Richard Jewell would be fascinated to know that. And I remember a press conference last summer, clearing Hillary. I remember them announcing all kinds of investigations.

Sessions is a weak sister, as are all Senators. ALL...

He supported McMaster and that wing. He is simply an author with an opinion.

These tweets are the ramblings of an autistic person. It takes a lot of mental gymnastics and 37D underwater blindfolded backgammon to make it work. It may give hope to some, but it’s a completely constructed reality that ignores all the evidence to the contrary.

“Swan” dive into an empty pool. How the author’s Soros-Podesta check was big enough.

The days are gone where Cronkite (as left as he was) gave 15 minutes news. Today there is way too much time for NEWS.. Turner started the 24 hours of news with CNN and the other networks followed suit. It’s too many hours of idle talk just to fill the day.. and I can’t stand that much gossip! They go over and over things that reduces them to teenage talk... and then they have ‘guests’ on to get their opinions... they all want to be on TV... or to be seen standing next to the main subject of the day. It’s unnecessary! It puts the ‘immature’ label on them that they try to pin on Trump...

So far, this seems like the farthest-fetched “reasoning”.

DEAR TRUMP JR & ERIC,

Trump should have hired 10 Bannons,
instead of Jared liberals.

Hey Trump Jr & Eric,

Jared liberal is dooming your Presidential runs.
