http://www.cbsnews.com/news/report-trump-says-steve-bannon-wasnt-involved-in-his-campaign-until-very-late/In an interview with the New York Post, Mr. Trump was asked if he still has confidence in Bannon.
I like Steve, but you have to remember he was not involved in my campaign until very late, he said. I had already beaten all the senators and all the governors, and I didnt know Steve. Im my own strategist and it wasnt like I was going to change strategies because I was facing crooked Hillary.
Mr. Trump did not definitively say he has confidence in Bannon, the report said.
Steve is a good guy, but I told them to straighten it out or I will, the president told the newspaper.

Guess we know who's winning in that little knife fight...

IMO, IMO! maybe O'Reily will replace Bannon as trumps new live-in 'best friend' , Bannon, Stevie has overstayed his 'welcome'
and trump gave him all his old suit jackets, tried to clean him up.

they voted for and supported Trump.
I am telling them this is nothing new. The white supremacists are linked with Trump and Putin both.

(24,396 posts)8. Yep. tRump wants to have it both ways.
Neither of his 2016 campaign managers was involved for any time at all. The campaign was actually being run by the Ghost of Xmas Yet To Come.

and even defy protocol by placing him on the principles committee of the National Security Council?

They can't both have been there for only a short time, and both have been a meh.
