Steve Bannon resigns

(CNN)- President Donald Trump's chief strategist Steve Bannon has been fired, two White House officials told CNN Friday.

A source told CNN that Bannon was given the option to resign but was forced out. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed Bannon's departure but did not say whether he was fired or resigned.
"White House Chief of Staff John Kelly and Steve Bannon have mutually agreed today would be Steve's last day. We are grateful for his service and wish him the best," Sanders said in a statement.


I'm fucking sad. I can't believe it, one of the few men pressing Trump to remain loyal to his voters is gone. What say you, NSG? Because now I know that we lost

This is bad news. The deep state is isolating Trump by removing all his guys one by one.

How did people not see this coming? Trump doesn't give a shit about the alt-right or his other voters, Trump only cares about Trump.

Good. The faster Trump's government destroys itself and the United State's credibility abroad the faster we can get a real socialist movement going in the US.
“It is difficult for me to imagine what “personal liberty” is enjoyed by an unemployed hungry person. True freedom can only be where there is no exploitation and oppression of one person by another; where there is not unemployment, and where a person is not living in fear of losing his job, his home and his bread. Only in such a society personal and any other freedom can exist for real and not on paper.” -J. V. STALIN
Ernest Hemingway wrote:"Anyone who loves freedom owes such a debt to the Red Army that it can never be repaid."

Napoleon Bonaparte wrote:“To understand the man you have to know what was happening in the world when he was twenty.”

Cicero wrote:"In times of war, the laws fall silent"

Probably George Bush 2.0, the NeoCons'll get Trump. Even as a fervent Trump supporter, I know that he relies heavily upon his advisors. With Bannon out, the GOP will get what they really want

Considering the high turnover in the White House, may I suggest to Donald J. Trump that any future replacements be hired from a temp agency?

The "deep state"? Don't be foolish.

It's obviously the lizerd-gnome cabal.
Most of the time I have no idea what the hell I'm doing or talking about.

”Many forms of government have been tried and will be tried in this world of sin and woe.
No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is
the worst form of government, except for all the others that have been tried from time to time." -
Winston Churchill, 1947.

"Rifles, muskets, long-bows and hand-grenades are inherently democratic weapons. A complex weapon makes the strong stronger, while a simple weapon – so long as there is no answer to it – gives claws to the weak.” - George Orwell
