What was the plan?
First resign from brietbarf. You’ve poisoned the brand. Then crawl on your belly for forgiveness and serve this administration (from outside of it) as a gopher.
Bannon is a pretty smart guy, but he is a completely out of control attention whore. He has no ability to control his own impulse to make himself feel important by the act of drawing attention to himself. This is simply today’s version of the same story. Ben Shapiro had an excellent take on Steve Bannon. Ben worked with Steve Bannon for many years at Breitbart and I believe accurately encapsulates what and who Steve Bannon is. He exists for the sole purpose of trying to derive the spotlight from being next to people who have gotten things done and achieved success. He himself has done that once and has no ability to do that any further.
DING...DING...DING....yep...I believe he’s got some problems bigger than politics...but, he sure screwed the pooch. Some brilliant people have REALLY big problems, that ultimately become their undoing....he seems to be one of those.
from Breitbart. BREITBART!
Stupid thumbs.
All that accomplishes is to make him look mentally unstable.
He called Jr. a weak traitor and Trump a liar when he said he didn’t meet with the Rusky too. You don’t/can’t walk that back. Maybe he should go to and blame it on drugs.
Yeah, I’m with you - that ‘working the phones’ bit sounded like a lie to me too.
Axios has learned that POTUS has said that he wants surrogates who appear for him on TV to “bury Steve.”
Axios’ Jonathan Swan reported last night: Trump has been working the phones over the past several days, telling allies they need to choose between him and Bannon.

None of this rings true.
the trouble I have with Bannon is that he said these things while working in the White House. It’s not like he got fired, got mad and said them. He showed extremely poor judgment in talking to Wolf in the first place. If he had any sense at all he would have realized that Wolf was going to write an anti-Trump book.
His brother Race would have handled it better, but he always has his hands full with those two brats, running off into danger all the time.
Not so..IMO
Trump knows he need to be seen as a man that can accept an apology and move on.
There will be a lot of people very soon who will want or need to apologize and he will want them to know they can.
Better an enemy who has apologized than a cornered enemy.
Could be the media did it to themselves, and grabbed words out of context and lied until they made fools of themselves. Could be they took the bait deliberately laid for them. Or it could be that Steve is just a dumb-ass who doesn’t know how to stay focused and on message.
At any rate, some of the allegations of this book are such utter nonsense that it’s amazing anyone believed it. If Trump didn’t want to win, he sure did a piss poor job of losing.
The worst part may turn out to be the lack of Cantorizing of weasels and draining of swamp as a result.
The only winners here are the Bush League Republicans like McConnell, Graham, Rubio, McCain, Alexander, Flake, Corker, Murkowsky, Hoeven, Hatch, Heller and Ryan who desperately want the final amnesty that will cement in place the demographic changes they have made to the country against the will of the citizens.
LOL
When you are 'female' and look like Sloppy Steve Bannon...you gotta PROBLEM.
Hey Steve, too little, too late. Can you feel the fork?
Total speculation based on experience:
Steve has a drinking problem and got loose tongued with a gossip writer when imbibing and is not sure what he said.
