I think Bannon has an abuse problem. Drugs Booze both.

[databoss]

ALCOHOL.

Steve Bannon wants to run in 2020, he believes that Trump supporters think he is the man and will replace Trump with him.

He is toast, soon to be fired again.

[babble-on]

Bannon erroneously thought that he was the brains of the operation.

Steve Bannon is now at war with the entire Republican Party...

Well, I guess we're all big jerks here.

I'm definitely at war with the GOPe.

There is something else happening that we are being distracted from seeing. Anyone watching Sarah Sanders’ presser today, when every question was about this gossip book, can see that this distraction ploy has succeeded once again.

Nice propaganda touch, they make sure to obtain the most unflattering photo possible. This ascent of McMaster, Javanka and Kelly wing of the party has nosed out any conservatives who wanted a wall, an end to the neocon wars, etc.
Now they are consolidating power by reducing those who were nosed out.

Interesting to see the old USSR power games happening right here at home.

What does Mr. Bannon have to say about all of this? Not much, aside from muttering about Trump being, er, "a great man."

I thought Bannon issued a 'tweet' yesterday emphatically denouncing the book as being full of lies.

Wow, Just looked at the comments section on Breitbart. Wow. When Bannon has lost Breitbart, he’s left with . . . umm, nothing.— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) January 3, 2018

Cool. Trump's reading social media comment sections.

Hey Donald. Rosenstein didn't produce the docs last night. Time to fire him and hire somebody who will do what Sessions won't do.

Prosecute the Deep State.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

Regardless of the details, I’m at a complete loss to understand why he did this.

POLL: HAS STEVE BANNON LOST HIS MIND?

[redhead]

...took a knife, stabbed himself, said, "Take THAT, Potus!" Stabbed himself again, hollered, "...and THAT, too!" And again, "...And THAT!!" ...

"Are you dead yet?"

[Alberta's Child]

At the very least, Democrats on the Hill, and probably a number of Republicans, are going to be curious about why Bannon (who'd totally dismissed the Russia story on 60 Minutes a few months ago) would use a word like "treasonous" in this context.

This itself is a most curious angle to the story. It reinforces my view that the Wolff book is filled with quotes from Bannon that were really given to concoct a narrative based on an expectation that Trump was going to be run out of office in June or July of 2017 when the NYT stories about Trump and Sessions were all over the news.

And I really have to give credit where credit is due. The Bannon meltdown would seem to put this classic quote from a guy I don't like very much right up there as "Quote of the Year" material for 2017:

"He [Bannon] looks like some disheveled drunk who wandered onto the political stage." -- Rep. Peter King (R-NY)

LMAO.

Excluding Steve Bannon, who is certainly no longer on the list, who are the conservative kingmakers outside public office who agree with FR?

[DesertRhino]

By the way, this article was written by a kid born in 85 in Saudi Arabia, who spent most of his young life overseas, got a degree in journalism, worked for NPR, and then went to DC. His preference is sex in the butt, and he is happily gay.

Now he is happily explaining to us how bad Bannon is.

So Bannon is evil. Everyone needs to stop and ask “how do I actually know, what I think I know”.

[ransomnote]

I think Bannon and Trump are play acting a fake spat and the left is dining on it with zeal. Distraction and it’s working.

[conservative98]

I just want to know what Bannon is addicted to so I can avoid it.

Bannon has a financial stake in the royalties from this book. Is the most most likely explanation for his bizarre behavior and quotes.

[cmj328]

Bannon needs some time off.
