Bannon's Survival is to Attack Trump from the Right

Steve Bannon cannot resuscitate himself by kissing Trump's ass. He's gone too far.

Instead, either through Brietbart or some other new site, he should explain that Trump is a sell out. He betrayed his minions on trade. The new tax scam is just that, a scam. The middle class, forgotten people were left out of this McConnell-Ryan gift to the 1%. Instead of "America First", Trump has instead been led by the nose by the neo-cons that Trump pretended he would eliminate.

His chief advisors are interventionists on foreign policy. Others are protecting the big banks that robbed us, and then we bailed out, and he has globalists, like Tillerson, setting policy in the way that we all thought we defeated.

No, it's not me (Steve Bannon) who has abandoned our principals, it's Donald Trump. We didn't elect him because we are part of a cult, but because we believe in policies that we thought Trump would bring to Washington. Instead of "draining the swamp", Trump put on his bathing suit and jumped in, head first.

Editor's Note: I'm trying to look at this through Steve Bannon's eyes. I find him to be a detestable bigot, racist, neo-Nazi. However, if he could attack Trump from the right, he might just pull at least 4 or 5 points from his favorables and put Trump in the twenties, and that's the political death zone
