Most obviously, that information is incorrect.

I never understood why fabulously wealthy people like Bannon, Ross and Mnuchin would even want to work in Washington. They have the money. The other perennial attraction, due to human nature, is power. Washington, D.C. has power in spades.

Yes; I hope that’s the strategy. Now Bannon can go ghetto on DJT’s enemies without having to worry about what he says might reflect on the White House since he’ll no longer be an employee. I LOVE to hear Corey Lewandowski interviewed, and he never holds back. Hoping this is what’s in store with Bannon leaving.

Posobiec: Bannon: I am going to go medieval on enemies of Trump now Sounds good. Sometime your allies can do better on the outside. And Bannon likely will still have access to the WH.
To: reaganaut1
Man, Trump is going to change everyone in his administration before four years are up. I cannot remember so many changes in just the first year.

To: snarkytart; reaganaut
If true, this is bad news.
Bannon more than any other person steered Trump onto the ideological course that got him elected, and he has done his best to keep him on that course. With Bannon gone and Trump's relations with Sessions worse than ever, most of the advice Trump will get will be from "moderates", establishment Republicans, and his own liberal family members.
To: ELS
That would explain why Bannon would leave. When you don’t report directly to the president anymore and now have to answer to a chief of staff, you have no power.

Bannon was the last one pushing the agenda.What about Bannon's big blackboard with a list of the total Trump agenda on it? Is someone going to erase it?

I like Bannon, but I disagree with the way you characterize him. Trump was a juggernaut long before Bannon joined his campaign last August. If there is one person in Trump’s campaign who deserves the most credit for his victory (and this is a big IF), I think it’s Kellyanne Conway.

Trump once held liberal views on a wide range of issues, including his signature issue of immigration. The influence of Bannon and Breitbart was what first and foremost helped move him in the right direction ideologically.
Now the loudest voices whispering in the President's ears will be globalists like McMaster and liberals like Ivanka.
To: MayflowerMadam
Now Bannon can go ghetto on DJTs enemies without having to worry about what he says might reflect on the White House since hell no longer be an employee Unless Bannon goes ghetto on DJT & his administration. I do not rule out that possibility.

Both appear to be team players, I wouldn’t be concerned about them, unless appearances are not reality.

I hope that this is just a rumor, but every news source Left, Right, and in the middle is running with it.
To: Strac6
True that. I know one guy that is living it and can’t get out.
