I’m afraid that without Bannon’s influence Trumps base is going to erode as he does things that allow him to “go along” with the powers that be. They’re basically setting him up for defeat in the next election.

Exactly

First of all, the base elected Trump, not Bannon. Second, if Bannon was really that big of an influence on Trump winning, or even policy decisions since, do you think Trump would have “fired” him, or Bannon (if committed to Trump’s agenda, and not Bannon’s) would have wanted to leave? Trump is a big boy and pretty much defeated the field of 17 stacked against him with Bannon’s help. Bannon will be much more useful in the position he is in....IF, he can focus on advancing Trump’s agenda rather than Bannon’s.
