turning Trump Org over to his kids, and Bannon supposedly leaving Breitbart while he worked at the Trump campaign and White House.
This is being done to take the heat off Mercer and his businesses. But he'll still maintain control.

...And please, Mr. Mueller, DON'T STOP! I suspect the Mercers may be up in the tRump* shit to their beady little diamond-encrusted eyeglasses. And I further suspect that Sugardaddy Mercer doesn't want to spend his last years in Club Fed. Sad.

Link to tweet
Bob Mercer denouncing Breitbart and white supremacists and then giving his investment in both to his kids is just as Republican as it gets.
As one reply to Yates point out, this is "Page from the @POTUS book. Handing over reins of business(es) to the #nextgen does not mean you're clear, it means you're complicit."
Another: "Passing the baton to the next generation of shitty people."
