Steve Bannon Calls Jared Kushner a Cuck and Globalist Behind His Back

Donald Trump’s chief strategist Stephen Bannon has called the president’s senior advisor and son-in-law Jared Kushner a “cuck” and a “globalist” during a time of high tension between the two top aides, several Trump administration officials told The Daily Beast.
The fighting between Kushner and Bannon has been “nonstop” in recent weeks, according to sources who spoke on condition of anonymity. It’s been an “open secret” that Bannon and Kushner often clash “face-to-face,” according to senior officials.
One official said Bannon has lately complained about Kushner trying to “shiv him and push him out the door” and likened him to a fifth column in the White House.

“[Steve] recently vented to us about Jared being a ‘globalist’ and a ‘cuck’…He actually said ‘cuck,’ as in “cuckservative,’” the administration official told The Daily Beast.
“Cuckservative,” a portmanteau of “cuckold” and “conservative,” has become a favorite slur on the right, used like a sexually and racially charged version of “RINO,” a Republican In Name Only. “Globalist” is a term typically used by nationalist, pro-Trump right-wingers against political opponents; however, the term has also come under fire for at times carrying anti-Semitic tones. (Kushner is Jewish.)

1. I've enjoyed very few things associated with the current regime. That might change.

Watching the two of them take each other down would be very, very satisfying. Yeah, schadenfreude, I have it.

Other than that, unless something in the Russian investigations bear fruit, we're in for a very bad stretch.

3. This whole "cucky" thang is yet another example of republican projection

anything they don't like about themselves, they project on to the enemies they have made for themselves. They do this low, projection shit all the time.

"cuckserative" is just the latest degenerate spin on basic good old-fashioned, personality-deficient republican PROJECTION.

I'd bet a crate of Dippin Dots that the republican BFF's in russia are having a field day polluting the intertubes with this demeaning, divisive shit. The russians don't care who fights with who in the USA, as long as everybody is fighting, insulting and adding to the general confusion while russia continues its ACTS OF WAR on the USA.

Meanwhile, republicans display cuck-appropriate SUBMISSIVENESS and let the russians do it to America. Behaving disgracefully, republicans gotta project their shame somewhere.

Mercer family has to much money invested in Trump and they want to cash those checks. Steve Bannon will be dumped shortly by the Mercer's.

Their a small but vocal band of hate spewing, wall building isolationist. Will they then turn on Trump?

11. Bannon is not going away,like Trump,

his warped Ego drives him. He will stay with Breitbart and most likely build a News Network with Mercer. Remember,Bannon was the driving force behind Trump's use of alternative media platforms and proved damn effective. It is after all, it's all about money and institutional control of our Nation.

Appears the Trump Family is in Circling the Wagon's mode. They know the shit storm over Russia is coming and they can only slow it down just so long. After this Congressional Break,watch the House make moves to put Pence in the Drivers Seat. Pence has been distancing himself in recent days away from Trump.

8. You can't call someone a cuck if you can't keep your own lady, Bannon

And real Alphas know how to treat a lady in the first place, so they don't have to pay for it, much less grab 'em by the p@**y - like your boss.

9. Globalist vs Nationalist... When Bannon says "Nationalist" he means NeoNazi.

And Jared as a Globalist simply means he's a fascist who is reluctant to demonize non-whites. But will do it if necessary.
