In these meetings I am guessing there is an ongoing discussion of who will fry and who gets a bye.

All the players have to know what's in the documents; they just don't have the absolute legal skinny.

The Kelly involvement can be no more than reminding the participants what has been agreed to.

Just a guess of course.

It is also my guess that all those Trump tweets a forehand where to staunchly set up his position.

Early in his career General Kelly was Commandant of the Marine Corps’ Liaison Officer to the U.S. House of Representatives...

I can’t disagree.

All the impatient people who wanted indictments right away are going to be eating crow. It cannot be done half way and Trump knows that.

And if Hitlery and Obama think they are off the hook, I think they have a wake up call coming.

No one can be too loyal to Trump. That’s why all senior government officials must pledge full fealty and allegiance to him. They must protect him from all laws, foreign and domestic.

As far as Bannon goes, it appears that he supports himself first and foremost. For him to go on 60 Minutes and pillary Trump for firing Comey was the definition of not supporting Trump. But then, Bannon was the one who advised to keep that anti-Trump snake, Comey, on at the FBI, so Bannon had to drag Trump through the mud over it.

On the up side bannon is the keeper of the flame on the America First populist agenda, immigration, trade, budget,partisan wars, etc.

Few people equal his influence on those subjects. Certainly not john kelly, ivanka, kushner, bolton partially.

To keep the flame Bannon would need to be successful. In the WH, he succeeded in giving a Trump-hating author access so as to enable him to write a toxic anti-Trump bestselling screed. At Breitbart Bannon succeeded in getting fired.

I dont doubt his faults but trump apparently still talks to him so he cant be too much of a failure.

Who leaked the information that Trump talks to Bannon, and how reliable is it?

Not saying all leaks are false. I’d just like to know the origin of this one. [I have read that Bannon was a notorious lesker. Had you heard that also?]

I must confess I dont recall. It was about a month ago I read on a msm online that sources said that Trump still talks regularly with lewandowski, bannon and some others who have left. Strangely, trump doesnt hold grudges very long.

Because they would opt for getting fired so Congress could yell “obstruction” and impeach.

Well we’ll have to keep an eye out. If Trump and Bannon have patched things up, there’re likely to be additional references to it.

I agree.

Interestingly lewandowski is apparently back in the fold getting an rnc or maybe its a trump 2020 gig.

Actually Mike Pence is the one who just hired Lewandowski (which suits me because I like them both very much):

Vice President Mike Pence has hired one of President Donald Trump’s most controversial campaign aides, Corey Lewandowski, to spearhead his political strategy heading into the 2020 election.

Lewandowski discussed the position with Trump and received the president’s approval before signing on.
