Holy crap, this guy is a breaking news machine... I wonder how long Kelly will last. I’m guessing he told Trump it was him or Bannon.

Even if you are Trump supporter, this has to be a talking point or worrysome, right?

When’s the last time an administration has lost this many key people?

I wonder if this was the final straw.

I asked Bannon about the connection between his program of economic nationalism and the ugly white nationalism epitomized by the racist violence in Charlottesville and Trump’s reluctance to condemn it. Bannon, after all, was the architect of the strategy of using Breitbart to heat up white nationalism and then rely on the radical right as Trump’s base.

He dismissed the far right as irrelevant and sidestepped his own role in cultivating it: “Ethno-nationalism—it’s losers. It’s a fringe element. I think the media plays it up too much, and we gotta help crush it, you know, uh, help crush it more.”

“These guys are a collection of clowns,” he added.

Trump has no idea what he’s doing. This train wreck should end. Maybe we need a law that says some previous level of public service needed. Try governor first then you can be potus. Let them show their horrible personality and incompetence st the state level. Trump has never lived as a normal person and he’s a narcissist on top of it. I don’t get why anyone thought he was an option.

I’m a news junkie, but I find that I have to simply look away for a day or two and hope we don’t go down the drain. Donald Trump is a despicable person, and I wish the GOP could get over their own vanity and fear of losing reelection that they find a way to shit can this guy. Constitutionally, that is.

Well.....due to schedule conflicts and not wanting to distract people from their work, they disbanded one of the rings. But these two rings are the BEST two rings in the world. ANd I know rings. Trust me on this one. I know a bad ring when I see it and that was a terrible ring. SHouldn’t have happened. People might say it’s because the people responsible for that ring left. That is FAKE NEWS! The only three rings we need are the nuclear triad which we will use to bring FURY down on my enemies if they keep crossing me. We need to send a STRONG MESSAGE to those who fear me that there have huge reasons to do so. Like the coal mines. Huge mines, I’ll tell you. Huge.

It really does make me wonder how much responsibility an elected president, or really any official for that matter, truly has to acting on the message or proposed administration they were elected on. There’s no legal restriction: presumably someone could become elected by saying all the right things and then do the exact opposite once they’re in office.

It’s hard to keep track of the revolving door at the entrance to the oval office, but how can the president stay on track with his campaign strategy when he fires his chief strategist?

I don’t know. What scares me is Pence’s overly religious based biases against women and homosexuals. As a jew with gay family members I think a Pence presidency scares me more on a personal basis than a continued Trump presidency.

I do think Trump being out of the office would be good, but I probably wouldn’t start partying on day 1 of President Pence’s term either...
