Feuding Trump aides meet and agree to end 'palace intrigue': source

Top White House aides Steve Bannon and Jared Kushner met and agreed to "bury the hatchet" over their differences, a senior administration official said on Saturday, in a bid to stop infighting that has distracted from President Donald Trump's message.

Bannon, Trump's chief strategist, and Kushner, an influential adviser and Trump's son-in-law, met on Friday at the request of White House chief of staff Reince Priebus, who told them that if they have any policy differences, they should air them internally, the official said.

The development at the president's Mar-a-Lago retreat in Palm Beach, Florida, came at the end of what has been a relatively smooth week for Trump.

Trump ordered airstrikes against Syrian targets that drew praise in many parts of the world and staged an error-free summit with Chinese President Xi Jinping, complete with his wife, Melania, wearing a red dress to symbolize the main color of the Chinese flag.

It's finally sunk into Bannon's thick skull that Jared is the golden-boy son-in-law married to Favorite Daughter, and Trump doesn't care about nepotism, so they're NOT staying away from the White House. There's no way for him to win a direct confrontation.

The more they direct their hate at each other, the less to spill out into the rest of the world.

But they are so entertaining and instructional for the other children. Sad! Pathetic!
