"Trump won’t definitively say he still backs Bannon"
NY Post ^ | 4/11/17 | Michael Goodwin

Posted on 04/11/2017 6:22:25 PM PDT by TakebackGOP

"Washington’s rumor mill is working overtime on the fate of aide Steve Bannon, who is said to be at the center of the rampant White House in-fighting. When I asked the President Tuesday afternoon if he still has confidence in Bannon"“Steve is a good guy, but I told them to straighten it out or I will.”

“Rumor..kushner busted into office and ordered bannon out ..”

That’s a pretty specific and very inside info. If true Trump has a very high up leaker. That said, There’s too much smoke now l think Bannon is done and it sucks. It would seem it’s Jared pushing the agenda so Trump is turning into Bush senior. I just watched him say no Ocare R&R no tax reform. If he doesn’t get the tax cut done he’s going to lose the house count on it.

None of it makes sense. Some send the NY Post is not a liberal rag but AFAIC very, very news outlets are trustworthy. And even the honest ones make mistakes.

Threads like this are ....off the deep end. Sheer speculation and rumor.

It would be a big mistake to kick out Bannon. It would lose him much of the Right whose support he needs.

Trump uses Mar a Lago for a lot of meetings, I suspect because the security is better there, far fewer if any bugs in the molding and behind the palms. I saw a show on PBS, I believe, in which security experts said that Mar-a-Lago was the easiest place to secure, safer the anything in DC. We’ve seen wall jumpers at the White House time and time again. Apparently they’d never get that close to M-a-L. So I hope he keeps meeting important people there. And actually, we really don’t know what kind of monstrosities Moochelle left around the WH. Melania hasn’t updated it yet, at least I think not.

Has it dawned on you that she is right. Trump is distancing himself from bannon by this claim..which is really untrue..AND it is a harbinger to come

Some of us have seen this coming..not a lot...but several.

You will discover we were right.....probably soon

I agree .
The fact she loves this phony nothing story cooked up by the NYSlimes to push Susan Rice espionage story off the front page because there reporter Maggie H was caught hiding the story is the most ridiculous part of the phone story created to diverge attention away from the real story that Obama and susan rice have big espionage legal troubles .

Jarred may have played an important role in Trump’s victory, but it’s not people like Jarred that voted for him. Trump should understand that.

Totally agree. When Ryancare went down Trump could go right and get the the FC or go left and try to get some Rats. Looks like he’s going with Jared and his Rat fellow travelers. Big mistake.

I think this could just be a rumor circulating..will have to see what develops from it. It is passover...but that altercation could have prompted trump to come out with his quote..

It’s been reported Kushner is leaking to MSNBC Scarborough negative happenings/comments about Bannon.

Whereas Bannon is reported to have told Boyle at Breitbart to ease up on Kushner.

If Bannon steps back to allow Kushner (and Kushner is driven by Wall Streeter Cohn and TPP’s architect Froman) to take center stage, then Bannon needs to merely survive for a few reasons.

1. Deny the democrats a victory of seeing Bannon removed, of his leaving.

2. Show the President he’s not a quitter (Trump hates quitters; views quitters as losers).

3. Be a friend to Kushner but careful to ensure he, Bannon, is not held responsible for Kushner’s failures.

On this last, Kushner will start to see failure and like any loser will search for a scapegoat. Bannon needs only ensure the President knows that Kushner owns his failures but importantly signals that he, Bannon, never moved Bannon to failure nor was gleeful in the failure.

Bannon should though, remind the President at every opportunity of what the members of the Trump movement are voicing and hoping to see.

When Kushner is forced out by his own failures, Bannon can slowly work his way back to center stage.

During the period when Kushner is starting to become aware of his failure, he will likely try and shift things that are failing over to Bannon. When this happens, Bannon needs to be careful. He needs to step up and state before both the President and Kushner together in the same meeting that he will be happy to take those things off of Kushner’s plate but that he will take charge and make changes. This way, Kushner is not able to shift his failure points over to Bannon without Bannon making it known that changes will be made.

My best of luck to Bannon.

So are you claiming the reporter is lying with his direct quote. Did you look at his name???

Even a direct quote can be taken out of context, parts left out, and the like. (Half the Truth is often a great lie.) And who knows if the direct quote is word for word anyway.

People are going off the deep end with insane speculation. The only reason I can think of is they like going crazy or want to stir up stuff.

But you didn’t explain the most important question which is why are you so desperate to find discord in the Oval Office.
