Right-wing outlets focus on president's rejection of his one-time aide, not on Bannon's critique of the administration.

In round one of Trump vs. Bannon on conservative media, the president is pummeling his former advisor.
From Fox News to the Drudge Report, all the way down the spectrum to far-right conspiracy sites like The Gateway Pundit and InfoWars, headlines Wednesday afternoon painted former presidential adviser Steve Bannon as unstable and self-interested, and President Donald Trump as a forceful defender of his family and administration.
The lead headline on Fox News website quoted the presidents incendiary response to Bannons criticisms, reading, HE LOST HIS MIND: Trump unloads on Bannon after ex-advisers bombshell criticism appears in book excerpts. And the first sentence of the story linked to the headline sneered, Its probably safe to say the self-professed mastermind behind President Trumps election wont be back in 2020.
At Drudge Report, editor Matt Drudge, who has had an on-again, off-again feud with Bannon, featured an unflattering picture of Bannon and blared, TRUMP DOWNLOADS ON 'PRETENDER' BANNON.
And The Daily Caller declared, Trump Puts Bannon In A Body Bag.

(309,739 posts)I like this drawing of melania, right off the bat, though.. 'cause I think it would piss her off. Speaking of piss.. shouldn't trump's hair be that color of yellow?
It is incredibly tragic though that they're are so many brainwashed Americans that got that idiot in.. along with the Russians and the US Mainstream Media Manipulators.

Jill Stein Is Starting to Sound a Lot Like Donald Trump

"And in terms of whether she blames herself for Trumps victory, Stein argues that neither candidate was a good choice. There are differences between Clinton and Trump, no doubt, but theyre not different enough to save your life, to save your job, to save the planet, she says. We deserve more than two lethal choices.

(14,128 posts)And not in a nice way. Rip up the Constitution and re-write it. White supremacy and Monopolists - along with poor houses and work houses for the underclasses. Russia as it is now. Basically a bunch of rich "Bosses" in charge of all the resources and national assets, doling out favors and crumbs to all the others who will have to fight to survive.
He's a true disaster capitalist pig.

The state abandoned firing squads in 2004 but now, it has returned as the backup option partly because of a shortage of lethal injection drugs, the state's default execution method.
Utah is now the only state in the U.S. that authorizes execution by firing squad.

(6,950 posts)Brietbarf is their competitor. For a long while it looked like they were going to move in on Fox's territory. They know the die hard Trump supporters are going to back him no matter what and are the larger audience. After Bannon's fail in Alabama and this, they have a chance of knocking him out and taking his place.
