Smell Ya Later, Steve Bannon

Source — President Donald Trump’s chief strategist Steve Bannon has been fired, multiple White House officials told CNN on Friday.

Sources told CNN that Bannon’s ouster had been in the works for two weeks and a source said that while Bannon was given the option to resign, he was ultimately forced out. White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed Bannon’s departure, but claimed the decision for him to leave was mutual.

“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.

Steve Bannon sucks. There are many people in the Trump administration that I like, that I think are good people, that could play for my team any day (ehhmm Hope Hicks). Steve Bannon is not one of them. He’s a scumbag POS whom everyone on earth knew was a bad choice from the moment it was announced he’d have a White House presence. Such a bad decision it almost makes the woke you wonder if Trump did it on purpose so when Bannon was inevitably booted, the next guy’s in would look like heroes.

Doubt there’s that level of sofistication but who knows. The more likely theory is that General John Kelly is tightening the ship and Bannon’s ousting is a direct result of that tightening.

I’m a pretty neutral dude but I will proudly say I believe the White House is much better off without Steve Bannon inside of it…

PS — However, must tip my cap to Bannon being the most villainous looking person ever. Impressive really.
