You can bet the farm that responding to the media maelstrom Bannon created was very high on Trump’s list. That’s one reason he’s so furious with Bannon. Trump has his hands full already, and here Bannon goes, lighting a bonfire and throwing gasoline on it.
No way Trump didn’t make those calls. He had a head of steam, not to mention a fire to put out. As I said before, he can walk and chew gum.
I guess you picked the right screen name.
