I never believed Trump to be the great savior. He was, and is, the best choice of the limited choices that were available.

Bannon doesn't lack competency. But he is naive if he thinks he can "dismantle the administrative state". The swamp isn't going to let itself be drained.

That swamp isn't going to be drained without a fight, and ol punch drunk isn't up to the task.

Maybe David Duke.


I have mixed feelings if Trump ends up jettisoning Bannon. On the one hand, he will be discharging someone that helped him win and formulate a winning strategy. On the other hand, if you're entirely dissatisfied with an employee, you should fire him/her.


I think at this point, Trump wants to be a successful President and is willing to do anything, including firing Bannon if he deems it necessary, to accomplish his goals.

LOL. I couldn't care less who Trump gets advice from. The sooner this train wreck completely implodes the better. I enjoy watching him completely change course every few days. Every pic of him shows this job is wearing him down. We all know where this presidency is headed, best to sit back and enjoy the show.

Kushner has been his most trusted advisor for years whereas Bannon is a relative newcomer. Furthermore, Bannon's first few political ventures have been disastrous. The man lacks competency. So if Trump does the smart thing and throws the bum overboard how will you react? Anger? Happiness? Indifference?
Neither are qualified to be there in the first place so the smart thing is to broom both of them.

However, I am sure Bannon is done and little Jared will survive - unfortunately.

Because you're a typical Trump lemming....it's not about what's best for the nation, it's about angering liberals. Never mind that unless you're a millionaire most liberal policies would help you. It's all about Daddy making libs mad right

I voted for Trump and continue to support him. I believe he was the best candidate for the job and capable of handling the job well. I had no intention of micromanaging what he does once elected. He has information and knowledge of things that the majority of citizens do not, therefore, he is in a much better position to make decisions and having voted for him, I put my trust in him to do as he feels appropriate.

I can't believe there is a string of anti-Trump threads everyday and so reminds me of grade school, "Guess what Don did?" It truly shows how those people do not have a clue of how our government and economics work. Time would be better spent in educating themselves rather than engaging in gossip, especially from publications from the UK!

All I care about is results, there will be growing pains getting there and we won't be able to draw conclusions for several years. No one is indispensable, no one!
