Trump Suspects Bannon in Leaks, Days May Be Numbered

Good. Bannon needs to go. Everyone who is trying to push their own agenda rather than the President's needs to go.

This board loves some Axios, which is why it caught my eye in particular

Who cares at this point? The palace intrigue is nauseating.


.

There was a weird Roger Stone tweet last night that insulted Bannon. Wonder if something is up.

Was this discussed tonight?

Is axios even considered news, nonetheless being qualified to be deemed fake news?

If Bannon goes I'm about 50% less enamored with Trump.

quote:

---

Bannon has been strategically leaking since before Trump won.

Common sense and simple critical thinking skills applied to the identifiable dynamics at work are all it really takes.

You don't have any of that. It's proven in the other thread where you admit you are a fascist.

Unfortunately, no link is going to give you those things.

Or you just don't have one to prove your lies.

Bannon vs McMaster is not the first attempt Bannon has tried to use strategic leaks to influence the media obsessed Trump into making decisions he prefers. Though it may be the last if Kelly, who is a big ally of McMaster, is winning over the president's ear. But more likely it will just be like earlier this year when Trump and Bannon got into a little couples fight and then made up some time later

Tell me more since you are so deep in the Trump circle/

Ok, Bullethead!

Where did he go since your melt on the help board?

What exactly is your contention? Do you think Bannon has not been strategically leaking? Hasn't been his own anonymous source? Do you think it wasn't him trying to get McMaster fired by pushing hit pieces through Breitbart and Bannon friendly outlets? Knowing they have not seen eye to eye since the beginning? Did you skip over the Kushner/Bannon feud that played out with "anonymous" administration sources in the media bad mouthing one another?

But here is a quick example. An anonymous source(Bannon) tried to spin to The Atlantic Bannon's demotion from the national security counsel:

quote:

---

A senior White House official cast the move as not a demotion for Bannon, saying that Bannon was placed on the NSC to keep an eye on Mike Flynn, and to “de-operationalize” the NSC from former National Security Adviser Susan Rice, and that he never attended a meeting.

---

How do we know this is Bannon? Because hours later the Washington Post identified him as pushing that same line. Around the same time a rather incoherent leak about being a check on Michael Flynn, who was already fired before the occurance, was also peddled anonymously to the WSJ. Which was also later publicly identified to Bannon.

Plus you can just recognize who Bannon is by the way quotes come out:

quote:

---

“Next week is going to have quite high drama,” a top White House official, who sounded excited by the coming clash, told me. “It’s going to be action-packed. This one is not getting as much attention, but, trust me, it’s going to be the battle of the titans. And the great irony here is that the call for the government shutdown will come on—guess what?—the hundredth day. If you pitched this in a studio, they would say, ‘Get out of here, it’s too ridiculous.’ This is going to be a big one.

From the New Yorker. Now, exactly what other high administration official that has a background in film producing is going to be framing things like a cinema pitch meeting? Using Bannon like high rhetoric of grand contests and zero sum fights? Other then maybe Trump, but the statement is too coherent for Trump.
