I love the smell of Republican infighting in the morning — Trump's racist-ass strategist Steve Bannon is out at the White House, possibly a sacrificial lamb in the wake of Trump's botched, tone-deaf, white-supremacist-friendly handling of Charlottesville.
What could be better?
Welp, those in the know say that Breitbart is now going “thermonuclear” against Trump ...
(David Plunkert for The New Yorker)
Via CNBC:
White House chief strategist Steve Bannon, the nationalist firebrand who helped to fuel Donald Trump's dizzying rise to the presidency, is leaving the administration.
“White House Chief of Staff John Kelly and Steve Bannon have mutually agreed today would be Steve's last day. We are grateful for his service and wish him the best,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement.
Stock markets rose after Bannon's departure was reported.
Sounds like Bannon isn't going away easy:
Joel is a Breitbart editor. They're going thermonuclear, I'm told. Story tk on Axios. https://t.co/92z4nrZnbT
