Donald Trump’s former chief strategist Steve Bannon has described the Trump Tower meeting between the president’s son and a group of Russians during the 2016 election campaign as “treasonous” and “unpatriotic”, according to an explosive new book seen by the Guardian.
Trump-Russia investigation: the key questions answered Read more Bannon, speaking to author Michael Wolff, warned that the investigation into alleged collusion with the Kremlin will focus on money laundering and predicted: “They’re going to crack Don Junior like an egg on national TV.”
Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, reportedly based on more than 200 interviews with the president, his inner circle and players in and around the administration, is one of the most eagerly awaited political books of the year. In it, Wolff lifts the lid on a White House lurching from crisis to crisis amid internecine warfare, with even some of Trump’s closest allies expressing contempt for him.

Sorry about the grammar. Multi-tasking.
“...Let’s limit posting headlines from these wretched Lying Leftist outlets...”
Great advice!!
1. The deep state hates Steve Bannon.
2. It's not a book by Steve Bannon.
3. It's allegedly quotes from a book.
4. The quotes may or may not have been by Steven Bannon. 6. The only intent of this article is to fracture Trump supporters.
“...Bannon and Trump working together...”
This occurred to me as a possibility as well.
Kushner also denied meeting with the Russians until that lie was exposed.
And, lastly, Kushner should not, under nepotism laws (see CF5 5), have been hired, nor should his wife, the daughter of POTUS.
The nepotism law was created after JFK employed his brother as the Attorney General.
"A public official may not appoint, employ, promote, advance, or advocate for appointment, employment, promotion, or advancement, in or to a civilian position in the agency in which he is serving or over which he exercises jurisdiction or control any individual who is a relative of the public official.”
So what if the click bait site is running with it?
“Michael Wolff (born August 27, 1953) is an American author, essayist, and journalist who is a regular columnist and contributor to USA Today, The Hollywood Reporter, and the UK edition of GQ.”

Some commenters claimed Bannon never said what he was quoted as saying. If so, it’s odd that the news site he controls has basically the same quotes. Thats’ the only point on that subject.
Bannon is off his rocker. This is what resentment looks like. He was rejected by family members and he will die seeking revenge; even if it means killing Trump and MAGA.
He can leave now.
They are printing the same thing that The Guardian and others printed. They have no author on it. It is the usual crap at click bait express
I could care less whether he says anything. I like how he operates.
““WTF!?” My exact reaction.”
Republicans have a real fear of success. They have the best chance in over 50 years of reversing leftist policies but they are too busy sabotaging themselves.
I understand that, but do you think this means that Bannon did not say the quote?
Lots of things have been attributed to Bannon that he has denied on air on the Sirius feed
At this point for me it’s an unknown

Understand. Apparently, POTUS considered the reports accurate and fired back.
Okay, maybe not People or National Enquirer gossip, but his trade is finding and spreading rumors.
And he's clearly a liberal and a democrat.
On the other hand, he did tell Brian Stelter on nationwide TV that he was a ridiculous figure.
Well ... "I mean this with no disrespect... You can border on being quite a ridiculous figure" -- on the guy's own show.
So Wolff can't be all bad.
PS, Many people stick an "e" at the end of Wolff's last name. Obama biographer Richard Wolffe is probably the guilty party.
Did not say he may not be lying....He probably is about some things.
My bigger question is WHO GAVE HIM ACCESS IN WEST WING? According to McMillan, publisher, he had unprecedented access, etc. Who gave it to him and why would they allow it? Don’t remember Obama allowing it...
Other problem is that tho people here may think he is a nothing gossip columnist, not sure everyone will get that same message.
Trump was controlling the message going into 2018. Now this guy is ...at least for now :(
Treasonous? Like giving the ayatollahs in Persia a billion in cash and a road map to deliverable nuclear weapons?
Or giving Mexican drug lords guns and ammunition to abrogate the Second amendment?
That kind of treason?
