Wall Street Journal editorial rips Bannon for White House disfunction

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

The Wall Street Journal's editorial board blamed senior White House aide Steve Bannon for chaos in the West Wing, arguing that the top Trump ally's loyalty to the president is in question after his supporters vilified Trump's national security adviser, H.R. McMaster.

In an editorial Tuesday night, the conservative paper trashed the White House chief strategist for using his allies in the far-right media to disrupt the White House in favor of his own personal goals.

Citing the statement of support that Trump issued for McMaster last week, the paper writes that Trump's new chief of staff should watch Bannon closely.

"Rather than question the general’s loyalties, perhaps Mr. Kelly should question Mr. Bannon’s," the Journal writes. "The former Breitbart publisher has been a White House survivor, but his warring habits have also been responsible for much of the White House dysfunction."

In particular, the Journal questioned "the alt-right brigades who seem to rise up as if on call to smite some White House policy opponent of aide Steve Bannon."

1. Rip? They should credit him.

Chaos and destruction are what he's intending, in order to dismantle our Constitutional government.

2. Bannon is a freaking

Leninist and wants to see the democracy fail, also pitting people against each other, and makes no qualms about it.

He is another sick bastard.

3. His comeuppance is coming soon.

Don't drop the soap Stevie boy.
