Trump's Syria airstrike victory dance getting stepped on by "too many" Kushner v. Bannon stories



President Donald Trump’s White House lashed out Friday at stories saying that the administration is torn by inner turmoil and that controversial senior advisor Stephen Bannon may be on his way out after a palace coup by establishment Republicans aligned with presidential son-in-law Jared Kushner.

TheHill.com said the administration is complaining that its victory dance about the airstrikes on Syria Thursday night and the confirmation of its Supreme Court nominee is getting stepped on by too many stories about palace intrigue within the White House.

“Outside forces,” said administration spokeswoman Lindsay Walters, are trying to sabotage the Trump presidency by gossiping about the contentious relationships between major White House players.

“Once again this is a completely false story driven by people who want to distract from the success taking place in this administration,” Walters complained. “The president’s pick for Supreme Court … was confirmed today; we hosted multiple foreign leaders this week; and the president took bold and decisive military action against Syria last night.”

I doubt that Trump is going to side with Bannon over his son in law.
