In an interview with MSNBC, Breitbart senior editor Joel Pollak has made clear that Donald Trump can't take his website's support for granted.
"If he pulls an Arnold Schwarzenegger and tries to reinvent himself as a liberal, he will see that support erode very, very quickly, and he will struggle politically, I think, to make the case for reelection in 2020," Pollak made the comments after it was announced that former (and now current) Breitbart.com chief Steve Bannon was removed from his position as Trump's Chief Strategist.

There can be little doubt that Pollak is right. From old-school conservatives who demanded a candidate with the balls to say what nobody else dared say, to the 'alt-right', and to Democrats who simply detest the Clintons - all passionately supported Trump last year, but they did so because they thought he truly was an outsider; a man who refused to play the usual establishment games and who would stick to his guns no matter what. If he now governs like, say, Gary Cohn would, well, let's just say that these voters aren't the type of people who'll put up with that. The primary reason they supported Trump is that they felt betrayed by the establishment.

Last I heard...there was a manafort FBI raid and a federal grand jury . So dont claim there is never anything to my posts
In the meantime...watch for the heat to be turned on ivanka and jared from team bannon
.and one more time.. family friend of trump and a publicist shows I was right about ivanka
You can lie all you want..but you aren’t a long time trump family friend
This isn’t a response to anyone specific but food for thought. I have no proof and am basing my analysis on history. Trump’s only goal is winning regardless of the path. Throughout the campaign, good people were replaced to move the campaign forward. Many focus on the short game, ignoring the long game. Priebus was necessary initially to calm GOPe and NeverTrump nerves. Think back to what Trump was walking into. Now Trump has his footing and can be more aggressive. The public criticism of Sessions, I believe, was to give Sessions enemy support so that he could be more aggressive as well. Think back, the narrative was “amnesty only”, now it is, “Please don’t deport my landscaper”. As for Bannon, his goals have not changed, I predict he will now fight from the outside. I believe both he and Trump agree Bannon is more effective outside of the WH. I respect Trump for having the foresight to replace those that cannot move the ball forward any further. Plus this is the perfect time to replace Fox. Bottom line, I don’t believe Trump or Bannon have changed their goals, they’ve fought hard to make it happen, it is their core. The sound bites serve a purpose deeper than face value. Poor Juan Williams nearly cried when told Bannon will not fight Trump. Again, look at the bigger picture, and past hysteria over possible outcomes. Thus far, the ball keeps moving forward, mainly because Trump is willing to make changes wherever needed. It isn’t personal, it’s about winning. And unlike the other replacements, Bannon was always on the team and can now move the ball forward from the outside. As for Jared and Ivanka, I’ve yet to see policy against the initial goals set by Trump. They may have his ear, but not his pen.
On a side note, Trump cannot drain the sewer if we keep putting excrement in the pipes that feed that sewer. Most of Congress needs to be primaried. We have to do our part from dog catcher to Senate.
Ear but not pen is a good way to look at it. When they are defeated then in comes spin in media to protect them..like...she tried..or she has to pick her battles so not seen as super lib with congress
Anyone who is objective can see she is for climate change. She didnt win the pen on that one
Btw..spinners came out for ivanka on the Charlottesville issue too.
OK, first get the goobernater story right, Schwarzenegger never reinvented himself, he just dropped the mask, he was always a toad sucking kennedy wannabe, always! And if anyone ever had a doubt all they have to do is look at how he forwarded the liberal agenda and gaia worshippers policies to cripple industry in California using moonbeams own people.
If what you claim is true then you know she is a social lib..and you know she is the favorite child.. and you know she will try to push social lib agenda on her dad
.So dont pretend otherwise
Good grief.
I don’t concern myself with Ivanka. I don’t read Closer magazine like you do, I guess.
Good grief. sealed No knock warrant on manafort is right...lolol..go peddle your sarcasm somewhere else
Legal research holds my interests..thus my prediction on manafort that no one believed
No charge.
Lord have mercy ...you do realize they want him to flip. And you do realize that money laundering and bribery investigations Involving foreign countries take time. Surely you are not that stupid. If you are..see the firtash case in Illinois . btw spain wants firtash for money Laundering and organized crime
No one believed because no one cared.
Trisham is one of the smartest people on FR. Try to contain yourself when you discover that not everyone buys your theories.
The Russian thing is going nowhere which is why they’ve switched to Nazi, racist, alt-right crapola.
I wonder where the Dems “A Better Deal” strategy went!
Btw.since you dont appear to be very smart about criminal investigations you should look at the people mueller hired..and their connections to various players. .like firtash and sater
And good ole’ semion
Then she should have seen this coming
Btw..if she is as smart as you claim then she would not post no charge as if it means manafort is in the clear
.because for one thing..he may have flipped.and he has plenty to flip on that feds would love
She would know that if she is as smart as you claim
She probably has better things to do than hang out on Twitter all day sussing out obscure and suspicious meanings to political tweets about Paul Manafort, the louche Robert Evans of the Trump campaign...
I suggest an English remediation course. Good luck!
