‘The entire senior staff turned against him’ – We told you it would happen: Bannon FIRED!
“The entire senior staff turned against him.”
Those were the words of Axios White House reporter Jonathan Swann, whose inside White House sources have proven time and again to be right, to MSNBC’s Craig Melvin. Swann also reported that Donald Trump had pegged Bannon as a “leaker” – the ultimate sin in The Donald’s eyes.
Kristin Welker reported that Bannon had submitted a letter of resignation two weeks ago, around the time Mike Kelly took over as White House Chief of Staff.
Nicole Wallace feels that the Charlottesville debacle – and Trump’s parroting of the sort of race-pimping one finds at Bannon’s old stomping ground Breitbart.com – was the last straw.
Steve Bannon, the embattled White House chief strategist, is leaving President Donald Trump’s administration, two senior White House officials told NBC News.
Bannon’s departure brings to a close his rocky tenure in the West Wing in which he clashed with many of Trump’s other top aides, including the president’s son-in-law Jared Kushner.
