Trump's Blowup With Bannon Means He's Now All-In With McConnell And GOP Establishment
You can bet campaign managers for sitting Republican senators up for re-election this year are smiling.
Heck, Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., is. The official McConnell Senate Committee tweeted a GIF of the grinning majority leader.
In the power struggle among various power centers vying for President Trump's attention, the president was thrown into the arms of McConnell with Trump's evisceration of former chief strategist Steve Bannon.
Trump lashed out at Bannon after the strategist was quoted multiple times in an explosive new book that paints the president, his son Donald Trump Jr. and the White House very negatively. Trump said that when Bannon was fired, "he not only lost his job, he lost his mind."
It's palace intrigue and feuding, back- and front-stabbing, that would make Queen Elizabeth II blush.
