WASHINGTON — Rupert Murdoch has repeatedly urged President Trump to fire him. Anthony Scaramucci, the president’s former communications director, thrashed him on television as a white nationalist. Lt. Gen. H. R. McMaster, the national security adviser, refused to even say he could work with him.
For months, Mr. Trump has considered ousting Stephen K. Bannon, the White House chief strategist and relentless nationalist who ran the Breitbart website and called it a “platform for the alt-right.” Mr. Trump has sent Mr. Bannon to a kind of internal exile, and has not met face-to-face for more than a week with a man who was once a fixture in the Oval Office, according to aides and friends of the president.
So far, Mr. Trump has not been able to follow through — a product of his dislike of confrontation, the bonds of foxhole friendship forged during the 2016 presidential campaign and concerns about what mischief Mr. Bannon might do once he leaves the protective custody of the West Wing.
Not least, Mr. Bannon embodies the defiant populism at the core of the president’s agenda. Despite his marginalization, Mr. Bannon consulted the president repeatedly over the weekend as Mr. Trump struggled to respond to the neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Va. In general, Mr. Bannon has cautioned the president not to criticize far-right activists too severely for fear of antagonizing a small but energetic part of his base.
But what once endeared him to the president has now become a major liability. After the president waited two days to blame white supremacists for the violence in Charlottesville, there is new pressure from Mr. Trump’s critics to dismiss Mr. Bannon.

.......
They have to be making this up. If they’re not then some of thestaff around trump needs to be fired.
Most likely though they’re just making this stuff up.
“Mr. Bannon has cautioned the president not to criticize far-right activists too severely...”
How could that supposed conversation be known, and I thought the leaks had been stopped.
This is strategic misdirection. Bannon is seen by the base as a weathervane. Dump Bannon and you dump the base, which is what they are all after. Sure the slimes gets what they want, but the Nevertrumper GOPe sellout globalist collusionists. Well, they will be out on their ear, which I am sure would also please the Slimes no end.
What's a fellah [e.g. McConnell, Linda] gonna do?
Definately fake, jeez they don’t even try to make it sound believable these days! Trump’s adverse to confrontation?! That’s a knee slapper
They want Bannon out so that Trump will then be surrounded by Uniparty operatives and the Cheap Labor Express can be kept running.
They have been carrying out a 50 year plan of flooding the3 country with foreigners to steal the country from the citizens.
Trump is our last chance and they know it.
Define far-right activist? I presume they [the Slimes] means your average Joe neo-nazi white trash deplorable Trump supporter - the folks who voted for him.
I would hope Trump would come out and refute these claims emphatically. But I don’t have high hopes here. Certain inaction on his part is going to lead him being hemmed into a corner by the DEMs, GOPe, black state, MSM, etc.
Fake

Fake...
More fake news from the Slimes...
Or more leaks from Javanka. I’m inclined to think Jared is arrogant enough to think the rabid Dems and GOPe won’t come for his scalp once Bannon is gone. That’s the final piece they need to seize the beltway agenda, IMO.
Pure bullshit on parade.
They want Bannon out so that Trump will then be surrounded by Uniparty operatives and the Cheap Labor Express can be kept running.
Yep. And it’s so obvious it will ignite a 3rd party and be the end of the GOP. A generation of GOPe “leaders” like Little Marco will be destroyed and the GOP will be a minority party for a generation.
More fake news created by Rupert urdich would want to seek revenge on Bannon .
The
Slimes and this Maggie fraud are pure hate .
They’ve been trying to engineer this since 7 Nov.
More propaganda/narrative shaping from the enemy.
Here is the Foreigner Demon Murdoch behind the whisper campsign .

I doubt it was a leak. More like a fabrication by the author.

Rupert Murdoch’s ex-wife is a Chicom spy. Trump should start investigation on him.
Everyday the same BS. Rinse and repeat.
