Look, two things: First, despite the temptation, CTH is not going to say “we toldya so“; it’s irrelevant, combative and unnecessary. Second, I’m not going to go through the repository of all the times there have been harsh words upon this site criticizing CTH previous warnings about this day; again, irrelevant, combative and unnecessary.
CTH views our place, our responsibility for tone and presentation amid the ongoing struggle against the larger political left, as a foxhole discussion during consequential combat. What is the most valuable spirit within that foxhole?

Understanding the bigger picture, CTH does not drive purpose with hot anger; energy is too valuable. CTH drives purpose with cold resolve, deliberate. As such, the larger CTH perspective is not disappointment in Steve Bannon, because CTH fully researched, understood and anticipated these moments with Steve Bannon – hence the prior warnings. However, CTH also accepts we cannot force anyone to understand the larger reasons for those warnings.
The goal of walking to discover truth is not to convince. If convincing is the goal, the amount of energy expended is exhausting. The truth of situations, circumstances and ultimately motives, exists regardless of our opinions of it. It just is. Our goal is to simply enjoy the complex conversation as we discover the location. Deep, friendly, walking.
An honorable man does not personally attack the family of a man he supports. Period.
Regardless of all other things, what a person does speaks more loudly than what a person says. Character is not what you do when needed; character is who you are when no-one is paying attention.
Previous emotionally-driven attacks on Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, HR McMaster and Rex Tillerson showed the substance of Mr. Bannon’s character.
President Trump is the MAGA wave; Steve Bannon -and company- was/are surfers. Ultimately that’s the reason why Robert Mercer, and others, backed away from Bannon. (more)

Sayonara, Steve! From CTH which is siding with the Prez!
What Bannon did is not forgivable. You do not accuse a man’s son of being a Traitor, that is beyond the pale. Bannon needs to be banished from Conservative circles.
I do not know about this.
Give it a few days. Bannon has been a very solid player, on our side.
Very solid. This may turn out to be an issue, but it may also turn out to be a whole lot of nothing.
I tend to think, it is more of the latter.
Would not surprise me if he hooks up with Romney are already has.
That picture if him we're seeing says "Crazy Man" ... Jus' sayin'
he reminds me of Cruz.
I (highly) doubt that.
Highly.
I think Bannon is the complete opposite of Cruz.
No similarities, whatsoever.
None.
You may be right.
But I say give this at least two days, in the news media.
I think Bannon is completely on the side of Donald Trump. However I could be wrong.
All I am saying is, do not be judgmental, please.
Moi? I'm just trying to figure it all out.
As always, consider the source.
Has Bannon confirmed or denied any of these quotes?
It’s just sad, in any case.
The People should vote on the format for this match. Some like Tables, Ladders, and Chairs or an Ambulance Match, but I prefer something akin to Hell in a Cell.
There are lots of choices...
Bannon’s in great need of rehab.

....... perfect
Bannon should go carpet bag against Romney in Utah.
What ever he does, he’s disconnected from Trump now.
Trump is no longer playing only with evil and cunning players who are still predictable, easily beatable dopes, like Hillary. He is playing against killers, with his own team of killers, and all the while he has scheming creeps like Hillary, BGI, SPLC, and the neocons gunning for him. Snake Ryan ready to bite when nobody is looking. “Warhead” McCain screaming for Russian blood. Psycho Kim and Samoa Obama plotting some kind of intrigue to take him down. And THOSE are the lightweights.
This is the majors now. Trump has to outwit world-class adversaries and “frenemies” by defining the deals that they will agree to. One minute they will think Trump is their friend – the next minute, a cunning, bitter foe.

Ed Rollins ~ “He set himself on fire in the middle of the south lawn and the President ran over him with a tank, then he put it in reverse and ran over him again!..I think it’s the end of Bannon”
............ lol
Trump will not find perfect solutions. He will find OPTIMAL solutions. We cannot ask for more. Trump has stood by and watched Perfect murder Good for 8 years – maybe longer. He’s not gonna do it. He’s going to deliver the best outcome possible, and he’s not waiting for us to feel relaxed about it.
Best presidency ever! Just hang on. More winning is coming, but a lot of people are going to scream that it’s all over at EVERY turn.
The best way through this is to define viewpoints, not people, because people will shift as they change position and velocity in Trump gravity. Bash the neocon, warmonger, and dopey globalist positions – not the people who are going to hold them one moment and come loose from them later.
..... pretty wise (jmo)
