Bannon can’t be “Borked”. He isn’t subject to Congressional approval.

I had the same thought. Let Bannon be Bannon. It will drive the libs crazy that his advice to Trump will be sound and well within the mainstream of conservative thought.

My concern is that Sessions might get Borked, even with a Republican majority.

True that.

Bannon doesn't seem to say much publicly. Don't know exactly what he does, but didn't the whole Anthony Weiner underage sexting fiasco begin after a Trump staffer was attacked by the Dems?

No, he’s not subject to confirmation. They sure are worked up over nothing they can control. I keep going back to 2009 and one of the few Zero statements I agree with “elections have consequences...”.

Get over it snowflakes. There can be no appeasement of these people, so don’t bother trying. They certainly would not have cared about appeasement had they won. That has been shown time and again.

But, thanks to Harry Reid. The number of votes required has changed. So, approval should not be an issue.
