Do you think we have General Kelly to thank for Bannon's departure? (Inquiring minds want to know...) Probably... Bannon didn't have an official 'office' at the White House and was sharing space with Reince Priebus. I suspect Kelly wasn't too happy to share space with Bannon... much less anyone else.

This isn't a break up. He says he's leaving the White House so he can go to war FOR trump. Fun times. This worries me. Bannon was in the White House and privy to a lot of stuff. I have a hard time imagining he'll uphold any confidentiality agreements he signed.... oh, he won't come right out and say stuff - but he'll dance along the edge. SNL depiction of him as "Death" wasn't all that off...

I hear Gorka is up next for potential firing.... we also need his wife to go (she has ties to Breitbart).
Bannon's already back at Breitbart - how much you want to bet he starts spewing stuff he'll credit to his 'insiders' at the White House...
That man is Evil.

Kelly was probably sick of looking at Bannon and thinking the guy needs a bath.

Do you think we have General Kelly to thank for Bannon's departure? (Inquiring minds want to know...) Maybe it was Gary Cohn... he's Jewish, he's the next potential head of the Fed. I think he might have walked if there wasn't so much at stake. I think the Republican's who voted for Trump -- even though they found his Alt-Right backers and maybe even Trump rather disgusting-- did so because they felt they could get Trump (and congress/senate/etc) to push ahead THEIR agenda. Cohn, as Chairman, would push their agenda. I suspect it's the anticipation of what Cohn could achieve that's helping to keep the Stock Market going... that and the hope of TAX REFORM (as in businesses will pay LESS in taxes not citizens paying less tax). I'm sure there were a handful of other behind the scenes key players who said "enough"... as well.

SNL depiction of him as "Death" wasn't all that off... I think this was a planned departure. Probably planned before Kelly arrived. I think they - Trump, Bannon, etc. decided the time was right in part due to Charlottesville. The leaker story linking to Bannon and the recent interview I think were done to give reasons for his departure.

They deserve it. EVERY.SINGLE.ONE.OF.THEM. Trump deserves the backlash and the mess. More so than him all these guys getting fired, they deserve it even more because they supported trash and crazy. Knowingly. I need a clapping emoji. But I'll settle for You want this one? or this one?

Yep, which is why I said "self serving"! I hope he ends up having to either pay a huge fine or do a little time!
