'Trumps Going To War' Now With His Political Enemies, Boasts Bannon

'Trump’s Going To War' Now With His Political Enemies, Boasts Bannon
The former White House chief adviser said that Trump attorney John Dowd, who resigned Thursday, has in fact been fired for not being aggressive enough toward Robert Mueller.

Fresh from his incendiary speech to Holocaust revisionist Marine Le Pen’s National Front Party in France, where he urged his wildly cheering audience to wear labels of racism and xenophobia as “a badge of honor,” President Donald Trump’s fired chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon received a somewhat cooler reception Thursday at the Financial Times’ Future of News Conference.

However, he was hardly deterred from defending his former boss as “the greatest orator since Williams Jennings Bryan” among other sterling qualities, and predicting that the shakeup of Trump’s legal team, including what Bannon characterized as the firing of Trump attorney John Dowd for not being aggressive enough, portends an escalation of hostilities with Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

“I think President Trump’s going to war. I think it’s very obvious he’s going to war on this,” Bannon said about the 45th president, adding criticism of White House lawyer Ty Cobb.

As Rick Wilson pointed out on CNN, DeGenova hasn't even practiced law in years. While others call Trump's new attorneys unorthodox media spin masters, he calls them reality TV clowns who will be "chewed up and spit out" by Mueller's "lead pipe swinging knee-breaking actual prosecutors." Gotta love the visuals Rick Wilson paints.
