Try to find sources on this planet, please.
What idiocy are you trying to claim re: Bannon????
What sources? I’ve read everything about Bannon that has come my way. IMHO nothing could be further from the truth.
Or in the world outside of his brain.
I am ignorant, and bow to those with more knowledge and understand of these political and governmental matters. I just really REALLY admire Bannon, and do not like McMaster’s statements about Islam being “perverted” in regards to ISIS. That is 100% erroneous.
I’d like a source for that please.
Remember, we now have to be alert for GOPe trolls as much as lefty trolls, perhaps much more so.

Glad to hear that.
Absolutely. And they’re actually the worst ones.
I got fried by several on that one.
It is my error, I was thinking this was about Brenner.
Sorry folks, and thanks for pinging me!
final questions are about NSC/McMaster. Spicer calls on Jeff:
Jeff.
Q I just wanted to follow on that. You said that he has the full authority to structure his office as he sees fit. Does that extend to the principals committee, as well? After he comes in and takes a look at the whole apparatus, if he advises the President and he would prefer not to have the chief strategist as a member of the principals committee, would the President —
MR. SPICER: I think the President has made clear to him he’s got full authority to structure the national security team the way he wants. Obviously, with something like that, he would come to the President and make that recommendation. But the President would take that under serious consideration. I don’t want to go ahead with this person or that person or structure, but the President made it very clear with him and the other candidates that they had 100 percent control and authority over the national security committee.

NYT continues with the fight against Bannon.
21 Feb: NYT: Can McMaster Stabilize Trump’s Foreign Policy Team? by Johnathan Stevenson
(Jonathan Stevenson is a senior fellow at the International Institute for Strategic Studies and a Cullman Center Fellow at the New York Public Library. He was director for political-military affairs, Middle East and North Africa, at the National Security Council from 2011 to 2013)
General McMaster’s deep understanding of civil-military relations, and his reputation for not suffering fools, could quickly make him an irrepressible critic — and political enemy — of Mr. Trump and his senior adviser, Stephen K. Bannon...

MSM still trying to undermine the President at every turn.
That would be John Brennan.
Bullshit. Obama and Brennan are gone. There is no reason to discuss them in the context of Trump’s NSA. Unless you’re just really ####ing high or something.
Since it was Bannon who put McMaster there, not worried.
Because Bannon put McMaster there.
McMaster know exactly who he is fighting. Speeches made while in uniform under a previous administration are meaningless as a guide.
Thank you. :)
Not McMaster. He was specifically passed over for promotion because he was NOT political.
I recommended him to Bannon, and Victor Davis Hansen sent his own endorsement.
