Bye Bye Bannon

I can't say that I know much about Steve Bannon. I know that he was wrongly smeared as a white supremacist by Nanct Pelosi and Hillary Clinton. Those are two monsters who spew slander like a volcano sprays lava. Still, I have sympathy for anyone who is wrongly tarred a racist.

I don't know if Bannon had a power struggle with Priebus or Kushner or anyone else. I doubt if the MSM had any info on those things either. Anything that makes Trump look bad is good. Make it up as they go along.

I also doubt that Trump was jealous of Bannon taking credit for his ultimate victory. The media have assigned superficial motives to Trump from day one and they also have a bias for Trump discord. More blah blah blah.

What I do know is that Bannon bad mouthed the Trump Administration in a conversation with someone from "American Prospect." Talking to them in any capacity should have gotten Bannon fired. "American Prospect" is one of the earliest spawns of George Soros. Robert Kuttner is a cryptomarxist who publicly praised Soros way back in the mid-nineties. If Bannon was trying to alienate Trump from his base, this was a great way to do so.

We are also told that Bannon floated the trial balloon of increasing taxes on high earners. If you think poor people benefit when politicians tax the wealthy, please read Thomas Sowell or John Tamny or Friedrich Hayek. If you are too lazy to read, Sowell has some good Youtube vids that make his points concisely. In short, there will be no economic recovery without tax relief.

Workplace friction almost always comes down to one thing: Not enough work to go around. What was Bannon's title? A strategist? The election was over in November. Strategize what exactly? But even irrelevance can be overlooked. Badmouthing the administration's North Korean strategy, their China trade policy or Trump's plans for economic recovery with avowed enemies is hard to forgive.
