‘Hell of a Run’: Drudge, Conservative Media React to Steve Bannon Exit
This is clearly not the last departure we are going to face head on in the White House.
Bannon leaving the WH may be a slight loss, but it clearly is nothing new…
Trump is working hard to keep his train on the tracks and in full steam ahead.
Just like he clearly told General Kelly…
Nobody will control the President of the United States but the President Himself!
According to insiderfoxnews:
President Donald Trump’s chief strategist Steve Bannon is out at the White House, Fox News’ John Roberts has confirmed.
Trump has reportedly told senior aides that he has decided to dismiss Bannon, who has clashed for months with other senior West Wing advisers and members of the president’s family.
Roberts reported that Trump came to the decision after a review conducted by new chief of staff John Kelly.
“It’s also likely too that this is just the first shoe to drop,” Roberts said. “It’s no secret that there have been a number of rivalries in the White House.”
A White House aide told Fox News the departure was a long time coming, and that Bannon actually submitted his resignation in writing two weeks ago.

Bannon had one hell of a run…

Very sorry to see my friend Steve Bannon go. His political brain will be hard to replace.

It will be fun watching as Breitbart now turns viciously on Trump to build up Bannon. Those #NeverTrump cucks. https://t.co/SBAlxnr1l0

Bye-bye Bannon. We hardly knew ye? No, we knew ye too well.

Bannon knows things, lots of things. If you thought “leaks” were a problem, just wait.

Who will media decide @realDonaldTrump has to fire next?
— Ann Coulter (@AnnCoulter) August 18, 2017
If @realDonaldTrump didn’t like the media giving Steve Bannon all credit, instead of firing him, he should’ve hired 10 more like him.

STEVE BANNON OUT! Media is the most powerful branch of government.

what hard-core trumpkins need to face up to today: the only guy who REALLY believes in Trump’s campaign BS (wall, trade etc) is leaving

By cutting Steve Bannon, Trump is cutting the biggest ties he has to his own base. Removing Bannon is a mistake…

Good point. For everyone upset about this, Bannon will likely have much more impact from outside. So libs, #becarefulwhatyouwishfor https://t.co/XGuhsEGTDZ
