#NeverTrumpers hate Bannon more than they hate Trump, which says a lot about how much they hate Bannon.

A big thank you to Kaslin for giving me the tip about blockquotes. It makes the posts look much more professional.

Earth to Frenchy. Bannon was fired months ago. He dont represent Trump or the alt right. He represents Bannon.

Enough infighting, trump can do his own thing and bannon can do his own thing. Theres no need to take potshots over some dumb book anymore.

I despise Bannon for the opportunistic, backstabbing little greaseball that he is. Trump brought him into the fold and extended his trust to him, and THIS is the payback he gets. That reprehensible little turncoat can f*** himself.

"Now that he is on his own, Steve is learning that winning isn’t as easy as I make it look."

One of the all-time greatest quotes.

BINGO. I think the Never-Trumpers hate them both for their pro-American beliefs. It probably gives them heartache when they need to elevate one somewhat temporarily to attack the other.

Regardless of whatever’s unfolding, I’m not gonna piss in Bannon’s shoes.

Neither am I because we don’t know if this is “show” and “Bait’ for the media.

I’m inclined to believe there’s an element of discontent, but that doesn’t justify a rat fight at the ground level.

I appreciate your shared reservations.

Somehow I think one day, after Trumps terms are done, we’ll be reading a book how Trump and Bannon played the media.

Bannon confuses the never Trumpers as well as the left. He is off the rails like the amtrak train in Washington.

According to Wolff, Bannon called Donald Junior’s now-infamous June 2016 meeting with a Russian lawyer in Trump Tower “treasonous” and “unpatriotic.”>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

This actually sounds like Agitprop from Wolff, the Dems need a villain as does the Swamp . Trump is winning as he follows much of Bannon’s advice, and the GOPe is so afraid of Bannon they would gladly assassinate him if they thought they could do so without being caught.

The Dems and the GOPe are ramping up for the 2018 election and the Spring primary season. They want Bannon gone.

Bannon will not be going anywhere. He will continue the GOPe shake up and also will continue to drain the swamp publicly, whether President Trump likes it or not.Trump will continue to drain the swamp behind the scenes, but now our president must seek the tri partisan support of the GOPe, The Dems , as well as his own base for upcoming legislation.In doing so president Trump HAS to distance himself from Bannon.

Wolff is aiding our president while genuflecting to the GOPe, hoping to put a stake through Bannon’s heart. ( Nope, not going to happen.)

Agitprop: The left and GOPe still think it works on the progressive movement ( wrongo!). They are desperate now that they saw that the left’s pu$$y whipping sexual harassment initiative against male politicians, and the president has not worked. What a fail!

Wolff’s book will be a fail too.

DRAIN THE SWAMP!

If it is a misquote, why hasn’t Bannon said anything?

Who is this Michael Wolff?

And now David French (and others) are relying on this new book and The Guardian to vent their spleen? How many times we’ve seen that there’s nothing in print can be trusted, and nobody paid any attention to retractions and corrections?

People are so gullible.

When French is for something, I am very leery. He has wished for this from the beginning. By the way, the whole story is not in on Bannon - -

Another thing I won't piss on Bannon.

Trump presidential campaign was floundering in GE, he had been firing one campaign manager after another. Until he brought in Steve Bannon, who quit his job at Breitbart. Who knows what would happen in Nov if this move didn't happen.

Now that Trump is potus, he's surrounded by your regular swamp creatures who all want him move to their camp and pov. So the Deplorables are comfortable with compromises and dealing and wheeling on the Capitol Hill?

We will see how strong Trump resolve is, and if he forgets his singular campaign promise about illegal immigrants.
