Trump’s lawyers send cease-and-desist letter to Bannon

Lawyers for President Trump sent a cease-and-desist letter to Trump’s former senior strategist Stephen K. Bannon, arguing he had violated a non-disclosure agreement in speaking about his time on the campaign and in Trump’s most trusted inner circle.

In a letter sent Wednesday night, Trump’s lawyers told Bannon his comments to author Michael Wolff in a soon-to-be-released tell-all book violate Bannon’s employment agreement with Trump in numerous ways and also defame the president.

“Bannon was the brains behind the Trump win and that’s why he was named Chief Strategist.”

The cruzholes here and on twitter put that spin out because they just couldn’t admit to themselves they backed an ineligible nasally canadian fraud for POTUS.

This is like the Star Trek episode where the Federation wanted a cloaking device from a Romulan space craft, so Captain Kirk and Mr. Spock pretended to hate one another. So Spock gave him a Vulcan Death Pinch (that doesn't exist! snort snort) and Kirk `died' and managed to dress up as a Romulan centurion and stole the cloaking device. They were just goofing!

“Kellyanne Conway was the brains behind the Trump win.”

Trump was the brains and drive behind his win. The latecomer cruzers had little to do with it. Despite all the hype.

just on Fox:

Bannon asked for comment on Sirius radio:

“The President of the United States is a great man - you know I support him day in and day out”

I agree something about this doesn’t feel right. It’s like an irresistible shiny object. Is it designed to ferret more of swamp somehow or provide a distraction from something else.

I pray to God that what is happening in the white house right now has nothing to do with a bad episode of star trek.

"The Enterprise Incident" was a good episode of Star Trek—albeit it was a 3rd season episode...

I think Bannon is bitter because he thought that he did such a grand service for Trump that he thought himself indispensible.

That’s Trump’s fault. He had good people he could have used and kept.

By all accounts, Michael Wolff does not have a reputation for accuracy in his stories. But if his quotes of Bannon are accurate, Bannon appears to have put personal ego and personal dislikes ahead of political conviction, as have so many others on the GOP side when it comes to Trump.

What possible good could Bannon have thought he was doing for the causes he believes in by running his mouth to provide juicy quotes for Wolff's book? Bannon is not going to get a president more likely to enact his desired policies in his lifetime than Trump. If Bannon actually did provide these quotes - yeah, way to misplace your priorities, Bannon.

After Bannon was fired there was some here who said that they thought he was a leaker and said notice how there’s no more leaks coming out of the Whitehouse after he was fired. And it appears that’s what POTUS is accusing him of doing today. Pretty sad really he was just an opportunist.

This reminds me of the fbi mole that was threatened by the FIB if he talked about hillary’ bribes from the Russians to sign off on uranium one. He had tapes of Russians bragging about her bribes and she taking them. That NDA didnt hold up and he is spewing to congress but they have him locked in so se are not to hear what he is saying because it is too explosive.
