but I think it would be preferable to Trump if he resigned because his base loves Bannon.

Bannon is a very complexed
man. I know why Trump hired him. I feel he has outlived his usefulness to Trump. Trump eventually throws everyone under the bus. It could even be today. Kelly intensely dislikes Bannon. I think three days at the very most.

It could easily be to distract from some outrage they prefer not yet be ln the public radar.

Anybody recall that we were supposedly on the brink of nuclear war with North Korea last week?

Bannon's departure COULD well be imminent. It could also be as far off as the Asteroid belt. It wouldn't surprise me in the least to hear nothing further about Bannon's job being in peril as soon as the confirmation of Smaug to a lifetime judgeship is announced.

As I can see it, Bannon is more of a liability, than an asset. Would love to see him go immediately.

Then Trump becomes a rudderless ship, although then he becomes unpredictably off-the-cuff crazy 24/7 unless Kelly can force some ADD medicine down his throat.
