President Trump resented ousted Steve Bannon for hogging the spotlight: Fox News John Roberts

[bathroommonkey76]

With conflicting stories coming out of the White House over President Donald Trump senior adviser Steve Bannon being booted from the National Security Council, a Fox News White House correspondent claim’s Trump had problems with Bannon overshadowing him.

According to John Roberts of Fox News, Trump has not been entirely happy with his political guru Bannon.

“We are also told that maybe the President was not particularly happy at the way Bannon had been grabbing the limelight,” Roberts reported before adding, “That may have played into all of this.”

Earlier in the day the son of former national security adviser Michael Flynn called the Bannon ouster a power play by the man who replaced his dad, tweeting, “Fact 1: Flynn/Bannon most loyal to DJT (both out at NSC),” he wrote on Twitter. “Fact 2: McMaster wont say ‘Radical Islam.’”

1. Crash and burn of this whole cabal in progress

[Thomas Hurt]

2. (scratches head) where?

Has Bannon being holding Touch Myself rallies like Donnie and doing television interviews and tweeting lies that I am unaware of..................

[Phoenix61]

6. Maybe things like this started to get to him?

[Ilsa]

10. Maybe all of the postcards, tweets, etc, to "President Bannon"

offended Donnie's narcissistic self.

[Thomas Hurt]

15. it did just occur to me that maybe

Bannon is hogging all the speaking time at the WH KKK meetings or that Bannon gets to wear the jackboots.

[BainsBane]

3. Perhaps the memes about President Bannon influenced him

I was hoping they would. That guy has no business being on the Security Council or anywhere in the White House. Neither does Trump, of course, but we're stuck with him--for now.

5. Of course the memes offend our short-fingered vulgarian POTUS.

Dems are doing a good job at getting under Trump's thin skin-- I say we should increase the attacks 10 fold!

4. Well, that would fit into the Mad King narrative, I guess.

http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Aerys_II_Targaryen

By now, Aerys had become aware of the tales being told in his Kingdoms; that it was Lord Tywin who truly ruled the Seven Kingdoms and that Aerys was but a hollow figurehead. These statements greatly angered the king. When Lord Tywin's captain of guard, Ser Ilyn Payne, had been overheard to repeat this statement, Aerys had the man's tongue torn out with hot pincers.[11][12] The angered king became determined to disprove the tales, and to humble Tywin, his "overmighty servant", putting him back into his place.[4]

Punished Bannon a Fallen Legend.

20. So, bathroommonkey and John Roberts have made my frickin day. Many thanks! Why yes, I

did enjoy popping off those postcards to Pres. Bannon and I hope my lil effort helped!!

Now I got to get some cards off to Pres. Kushner, and will be happy to do so, eh?

Hey, last I heard, jr. had been booted off twitter due to...being who he is, I guess. So I do truly hope this is him talkin shit about dft, because - it just gives me a tingle up m'leg!

Oh, and cheers to McMaster - it's my understanding that he HAD to take that gig, and never had a choice? Take it or retire? Anyway, so glad to have an adult on the playground -

[JHB]

22. Thank you, SNL and the "little desk"!

Prima Donnie remembers everything that makes him look bad, and putting Grim Reaper Steve at the Big Desk was one of them.
