    "Steve pretends to be at war with the media, which he calls the opposition party, yet he spent his time at the White House leaking false information to the media to make himself seem far more important than he was," Trump said

    Steve Bannon ‘lost his mind’ when he got fired from the White House, President Donald Trump said, adding that the Breitbart executive does not represent his base and is “only in it for himself.”
    Bannon has “nothing to do with me or my Presidency,” Trump said in a statement on Wednesday afternoon, addressing claims by his former adviser in an upcoming book.
    keep it up children :D

    Full statement
    “Steve Bannon has nothing to do with me or my Presidency,” Trump wrote. “When he was fired, he not only lost his job, he lost his mind. Steve was a staffer who worked for me after I had already won the nomination by defeating seventeen candidates, often described as the most talented field ever assembled in the Republican party.
    Now that he is on his own, Steve is learning that winning isn’t as easy as I make it look,” Trump said. “Steve had very little to do with our historic victory, which was delivered by the forgotten men and women of this country. Yet Steve had everything to do with the loss of a Senate seat in Alabama held for more than thirty years by Republicans. Steve doesn’t represent my base—he’s only in it for himself.
    Steve pretends to be at war with the media, which he calls the opposition party, yet he spent his time at the White House leaking false information to the media to make himself seem far more important than he was,” he said. “It is the only thing he does well.
    Steve was rarely in a one-on-one meeting with me and only pretends to have had influence to fool a few people with no access and no clue, whom he helped write phony books.”

    And, it goes without saying, we shouldn't be running to love Bannon 'cos he disses Trump. No Sir.

    I would imagine Bannon is worried about his involvement too.

    Hence turning the barrels on the Trumps.

    For all those saying that Trump can get no credit for the economy as he took over when it was stable and growth was speeding up as was global growth...

    ... many of you are the same people saying that Brexit has slowed the UK economic growth in well near identical circumstances.

    Trump may have many faults but he is perceived as having a pro US business agenda

    I think that post sums up your knowledge of investigative journalism in general and the Washington Post in particular.

    Those two points may we'll be accurate but it is still a crap article.

    Some interesting stuff coming out of this book like he apparently only eats food prepared on a large scale due to fear of being poisoned. He seems to think he's an ancient King or emporer, I'm surprised he hasn't gone the whole hog and hired someone to taste his food before he eats. Also, it sounds like he won't be getting a product endorsement contract with Just For Men!

    Though, from Katie's retweet:

    Steve Bannon has a record of lying, and his primary interest is Steve Bannon.

    Michael Wolff has a record of lying, and his primary interest is Michael Wolff.

    Trump has a record of lying, and his only interest is Trump.

    Take everything with a grain of salt...

    As per Bender, this book seems likely to be discredited in many ways and fairly quickly. This would seem potentially dubious as an example. Not that you'd expect a loon like Trump to be consistent but if he was that scared of being poisoned why is it not overtly apparent that he is scared of being shot?

    guns, init!
    Clearly the NRA have convinced him guns are good so anyone thinking of shooting him will be shot by an NRA gun-owner before they got close.

    Yeah, he probably imagines an attempt to assassinate him with a gun as ending up in a wild west style shoot out with him being victorious (he's bound to be the best gun shootist ever, with the best gun).

    Trumps lawyers to issue a cease and desist warning
    arguing he violated the employment agreement he signed with the Trump Organization in numerous ways and also likely defamed the president. They ordered that he stop communicating either confidential and or disparaging information, and preserve all records in preparation for “imminent” legal action.
    they're very worried
    “You have breached the Agreement by, among other things, communicating with author Michael Wolff about Mr. Trump, his family members, and the Company, disclosing Confidential Information to Mr. Wolff, and making disparaging statements and in some cases outright defamatory statements to Mr. Wolff about Mr. Trump, his family members, and the Company,”
    also Bannon's contract appears to be with the 'company' odd, i thought he would have been classed as a government employee, but regardless, if these two buffoons destroy each other it can only be win win.

    Absolutely, but also note that the first threatened lawsuit is around Bannon breaking a non-disclosure agreement, not Wolff misquoting Bannon.

    Nice that Blair is getting drawn into this as well, question is why would Blair as a 'relative nobody' be mentioned if there wasn't some truth in him being involved, plus Blair does have 'previous' and would do almost anything to use the middle east to feather his own nest.

    Donald Trump is doing a great job.

    Do you guys really give one? The rest of the world is interested in reality TV programmes and the weather. If this is the alternative pre-occupation then they have my sympathy.
    ...take your pickelf on your holibobs.... :D

    jeez :roll:

    Donald Trump does agree with the views of the majority of the USA voters.

    He didn't want Trump to be president either.

    Trump is reality TV and as his policies take effect the weather will also become increasingly entertaining in a disaster movie kind of way.

    Watching him recently however I'd say his time is limited. He shares one thing with FD Roosevelt: Trump keeps his medical report secret.
