The quake you felt
Friday afternoon came on the heels of the White House announcement that Chief
Strategist Steve Bannon was leaving the Trump Administration.

Pundits were quibbling
over whether Bannon resigned or was fired.
The question of tantamount importance is with whom will Bannon go to war
now that he has been “unshackled.”
Writing at Daily Wire Ben Shapiro pointed to something he said one
year ago: “Bannon understands that in
the game of thrones, you win or die; he doesn’t intend to die.” Now that he’s
been beheaded by Trump, look for him to try to become the Night King, leaving
destruction in his wake.
In his first public
remarks since his ouster, Bannon told Joshua Green, Senior National
Correspondent at Bloomberg and author of “Devil's Bargain: Steve
Bannon, Donald Trump, and the Storming of the Presidency”,
he will be “going to war” for Trump, warning
that he will continue to press the populist cause against the political and
corporate establishment. “If there’s any confusion out there, let me clear it
up: I’m leaving the White House and
going to war for Trump against his opponents—on Capitol Hill, in the media, and
in corporate America.”
“Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational Breitbart station.” https://t.co/nkKeUrWLr0— Charles C. W. Cooke (@charlescwcooke) August 18, 2017
Gabriel Sherman,
Special Correspondent for Vanity Fair
and NBC/MSNBC contributor was
evidently so excited this villain was gone he tweeted: “Bannon friend says
Breitbart ramping up for war against
Trump. “It is now a Democrat White
House,” source says. [emphasis mine]
David Bossie, a long-time
Republican operative, former deputy campaign manager for the Trump campaign and
Chairman of conservative advocacy group Citizens United appeared on Fox News Special Report to allay any
fears Bannon would turn on Trump.
