I'm not sticking up for Bannon here, but just asking people to consider the source - a disgraced and known peddler of “fake news” - before freaking out.
It could be fake news.
But where is Bannon’s denial?
Trump seems to believe it.
It is a fairly simple process to check and see if Trump said what he did. In this case I believe Trump which I don’t always do.
Bannon may end up running for President in 2020. If Trump ends up being a more or less conventional Conservative by that time which one will you support?
Trump believes it. He believes Wolff or Bannon.
