Michael Wolff is not known for his honesty and attention to details.

He has been accused of altering or making up quotes before.

Thanks. I had never heard of Michael Wolff and it’s good to know his track record before deciding to him seriously.

If Bannon doesn’t come out today and contradict this report Kushner is toast. Mueller will get him on a technicality and throw the book at him. With the kangaroo court Mueller has as a grand jury he’ll get any indictment he wants. Next thing we know Kushner will be charged with murder. JUst kidding but you get the picture.

“Wolff lifts the lid on a White House lurching from crisis to crisis amid internecine warfare, with even some of Trump’s closest allies expressing contempt for him.”

Sounds like it’s not just going to be Bannon. Probably a good chance the ‘author’s’ suffering from TDS and if his book’s full of lies, hope he gets sued for it.

“If true, sounds like Bannon overplayed his hand while at the White House, was forced out, became very bitter, was rebuffed trying to exercise influence and power in Alabama and now sadly is behaving like many people who have blown their big once in a lifetime chance.”

There’s no question he holds a lot of resentment against the globalists in the Trump Administration, especially Jared Kushner. From Breitbart dated December 321, 2017:

AL was the touchstone for what Nov is gonna be like, glad we got the model out early. Deep state is going to Angle/Mourdock/Akins/Cochran/Moore us to death.

CINC showed us the winning formula to bring Dems over, STICK TO IT.

Check out Bannon’s twitter feed. He sure doesn’t sound like someone who has turned on the president.

1. Since when have we been at war with Russia???

2. After all, wasn’t it Hillary who sent them the “Reset” button (known by an AMERICAN t.v. commercial), which made U.S./Russian relations all better???

So then,
3. What made the eeeeevil Russians such a wicked enemy that NOBODY who has EVER known Donald Trump can have ANY contact with ANY person with Russian DNA without it being Treason on the part of DJT???

Very true. If he had been a bit more politic while at the white House, he would have been invaluable in aiding Trump in draining the swamp and really defeating the globalists. Unfortunately for everyone, he blew it.

‘Somebody’s book says Bannon said something.’

When is the last time Bannon denied any of the Trump-backstabbing comments attributed to him? Bannon himself said that the firing of dirty, corrupt, Trump-hating/Hillary-loving Comey was the biggest mistake in modern politics.

Bannon would be happier if Comey were still undermining Trump in singularly devastating ways. He’s no friend of Trump’s.

Pretty clear all along that Bannon has been at odd policy-wise with Kushner and Ivanka. Sounds to me like he is quoted out of context making the point that it was dumb politics to meet with Russians.

Are we supposed to believe that some jerk walks in off the street and with just the energy in his little finger penetrates the inner sanctum of the White House?

I cannot take Bannon seriously. Originally liked his ideas but looking like a disheveled drunk all the time...

He reminds me a bit of Sam Kinison... messy, and often full-throttle on his shtick.

Wow. Look how many here just jump right in and buy it right off, when it doesn’t add up and is without precedent. If anything, I’d wager it’s another genius bit of “Trump state” press trolling. (But, what do I know? I guess it’s easier to just jump on the mentally lazy “I just KNEW IT ‘cuz Bannon looks disheveled” meme.)

Never understood the Bannon worship. He jumped on the Trump train, not the other way around.

Collusion is not a crime. The DNC met with the Ukrainians to get dirt on Manafort. The Hillary campaign funded the Steele dossier that used a foreign agent (Steele) to use Russian sources to create a phony, unsubstantiated narrative that was used by the FBI to investigate and monitor the Trump campaign and transition teams, and even when Trump was the sitting President.
