Bannon Out, Perry In

[Back]

Usually when there is a shake up like this it means more Russian connections have been uncovered. Is that the case here? Why ditch Bannon? Why the fuck put in Perry? All Trump seems to know how to do is boost tv ratings.

Bannon ousted from National Security Council
The Trump administration initially faced a bipartisan wave of complaints over a political official serving in a national security role.

In recent weeks, Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, has asked searching questions — sometimes for hours — of inside and outside advisers about the White House's performance and complained about Bannon in particular, according to people who have spoken with Kushner. Kushner, a onetime New York Democrat, and Bannon, a hard-right nationalist, have clashed as Kushner has told people that Bannon’s desire to deconstruct the government is hurting the president.

So it's just the administration settling into office more than anything. It is still only within the first 100 days. Of all the jobs in the world it most likely takes some time to adjust all the new people into their new positions.

He's using the Presidency to jump start his kids careers and make him a superstar celebrity. I just hope he doesn't fuck with foreign policy too much (where a President could do some serious permanent life/death damage).

The shift was orchestrated by Lt. Gen. H. R. McMaster, Mr. Trump’s national security adviser, who insisted on purging a political adviser from the Situation Room where decisions about war and peace are made.

Wait... so every staff decision that President Trump makes is now going to be blamed on a Russian connection in your head?

You and time4fun sharing that 1/4 brain or something?

The shift was orchestrated by Russian President Putin, Mr. Trump’s national security adviser, who insisted on purging a political adviser from the US Situation Room where decisions about war and peace are made.

NY Times had a retraction and a correction to better communicate with their base.
