Well look at the fight between the president and his own party. Steve bannon is only the latest inside tore leave the administration. Who is resigned and who has the president forced to leave. It is a big day. Lets get to it shepard bannon got the boot or resigned and one of those, hes out. Steve bannon no longer in the white house. Steve bannon has been a lightning rod inside of the administration. He is a former breitbart leader and striebed the conservative side the platform for the alt right. And n there is no shortage of bannon taking on close advisors including the president s soninlaw jared curb mer. But the rummar mill started when general kelly was made chief of staff. Bannon expressed concerns to the president. And others believed that steve bannon was leaking stories about mcmasters whom general kelly gave more power. This week on tuesday in a stunning news conference. President trump said this. I like mr. Bannon. He is a friend of mine. But mr. Bannon came on very late. I went through 17 senators and governor and one all of the primaries. I like him and a good man and not a racist and he is a good person and gets unfair press in that regard. But well see what happens with mr. Bannon. Shepard good man and well see, not a racist. The dismissal is fraught with danger with the white house. Steve bannon won candidate trump in the russ belt and contributed to a book crediting himself for the president s success and that angerred mr. Trump. And the president was furious to the interview steve bannon gave to the american prospect. In that interview, bannon controdicted the president s fire and fury and saying there is no military solution here, they got us. In that same interview steve bannon talked about the white supremist and his own role in flaming the far right. Bannon said his losers and a collection of clown. Bannon said he thought the interview was a good thing because it drew fire away from President Trump and the charlottesvilles comments. He not only failed to stop the fire from the president but rained it down on himself. Breitbart said he resigned 11 days ago. There is a piece, bannon backed by billionaire prepares to go to war against mcmaster and Jared Kutcher and his daughter ivanka. Hes out. But not silenced. The chief white house. What are we hearing inside of the administration. This was not done today. This has been going on for sometime now. It goes back to the sixth of august. And over the last few days, i amed to by a source inside of the administration that the interview or it is tyra d e did not help. You cant go out and contradict the president and say you know all things without the president deciding you need to be dressed down or out of the door. Clearly it is another example of the power that john kelly, the new chief of staff has got. He has reviewed all positions inside of the white house and took a look at bannon and clearly thought it was not a member of the team and that he wanted on the team going forward. And thats why we saw the statement. White house chief of staff johnicle and he will and steve bannon mutually agreed today would be steves last day. Interesting it was the president who said he would be gchlth it was steve bannon and john kelly mutually agreed today is the last day. And what President Trump would miss. Steve bannon was a connection to the base Kelly Ann Conway is in Good Standing with the president. And she has a good connection with the base. Those 19 conservative groups when wind of Steve Bannons departure swirled around said steve bannon and Kelly Ann Conway faithfully represented the position in the white house. Shepard this is a new development but it was happening for months. He was simpattico with the president and he was ininstrumental in getting the president elected and bias you power and in the white house he was in tannedum with Reince Priebus and at some point they would depart the white house. A lot of people thought he would have departed before now. And on two walls was white boards with all of the things he wanted to accomplish. And a lot of things were checked off and some not. And some grumbling that bannons aggressive agenda was not getting through. Reports of steve bannon on the outside and closest people in Donald Trumps sushgle. How much is it that you know. His distaste with the establishment republican and how he wants to fight against them and through breitbart or team up with Robert Mercer and launch war with the white house and congress would not be too much of a stretch. It is early going and we dont know what bannon will decide to do. Shepard nice to see you back, john. A republican senator questioning whether President Trump has what it takes to lead our nation. The president blamed both sides for the violence in the white supremist neonazis kkk rally in charlottesville. During that protest the car plowed in a counter demonstrators and killed a woman. Tennessees bob corker said he faces peril if he doesnt change his way. The president hasnt been able to demonstrate the ability, or the confidence that he needs to demonstrate in order to be successful. Senator bob corker of tennessee. And senator tim scott had this to say about President Trumps behavior. What we have seen the moral authority compromised by the lack of clarity. And by what we have seen the pivot back wards which is unsettling for Many Americans to include me. Shepard that from vice news. President trump blasted republican law makers and target the Lindsay Graham accusing him of spreading lies and the president tweeted of jeff flake of arizona calling him toxic and another president ial group is calling it quits over the president s comments. They called on the president to resign if he does not see a problem with his comments. John . Reporter it is a week that could have been avoided if the president would have given thoughts. He could rightly i think assess that it was one of the worst weeks ever for the president. Splitting the Republican Party and openly defying him. And now as you saw by listening to corker and are james scott, there are members of the party which are in open revolt against the president and newt gipping rich leaving the president more isolated than he was before. Hes more isolated than he realized and he has on the hill far more people to sit on one side and not help him right now. Hes taken a good first step with bringing in general kelly. But he needs to think about what is not worked you dont get down to the 35 percent range of approval and have people in your own party. He was supposed to came down and make a statement and instead he called an audible and fumbled the ball badly when he answered the question about charlottesville. Shepard the mother of Heather Heyer and the woman who died in the violence said she will not speak to President Trump because of his comments after her daughters death. I am not talking to the president now, i am sorry about what he said about my child. I saw a clip of him equating the protestors like miss heyer with the kkk and white supremist. You cant wash this away by shaking my hand and saying i am sorry. Is there something you want to say to the president. Think before you speak. President trump paid tribute to her daughter calling her a special young woman who will be long remembered by all. That is tough stuff. Reporter thats the reason why people in the white house didnt think it was a good idea for the president to veer off script. He was supposed to make a statement to turn it over to chow and mu mitchin. And he took questions on charlottesville, and his aides knew it would be about charlottesville and not end well. The president blamed both sides and but he knew a moral equivalence between the protestor and white supremist. He called it fake news. There was a lot of members of the president s own party who are up in arms. And this created a split in the Republican Party that will be difficult to repair when the members of Congress Come back to washington. Shepard it is hard to imagine that he will get any legislative accomplishments after the summer break. Reporter that said though, when corker and scott are asked are you going to vote yes or no on tax reform, the president will probably get the results he wants. Shepard Steve Bannons exit could shakeup white house. It could be big changes from the tax plan to National Security. And President Trump is taking a real chance with this move.

Josh is here, Senior Reporter at politico. Pretty beg move fraught with peril. It could impact policy areas and steve bannon held the line for the Trump Campaign policies for the populs areas in taxes and probably in the area of military as well. Bannon was skeptic about the long wars that the u. S. Was engaged in, in afghanistan and causing trump to hold the line on immigration. But dont think bannon is out of the picture because he is out of the white house. He might be influencing more to the administration on the outside than inside. Shepard preparation for war against the president s family among others . We are seeing members of the right angry about the things going on. Mike flynns son lashed out against the move to fire bannon and taking shots at hr mcmaster. And well see all of that intensify if bannon joins those efforts. Mercer. A billionaire donor . A prominent donor on the right who has supported breitbart and Media Outlets that are supportive of the president at the end of his campaign and could offer breitbart unlimited funds to mount efforts he makes to pursue and try to keep trump to the themes he struck in the campaign and avoid him from falling in the globalist camp. Shepard and a war, Jared Kutcher and ivanka trump. How will that go over . The president hasnt defended them publicly to at this time degree he might have. There is a constant sniping back and forth between jared and ivanka camp and the bannon camp in the press. How much is coming from bannon or his ally and having that coming out in front of the curtain could be unpleasant. People on bannons sign now the president has a democratic might white implying that jared or ivanka dont have the Republicans Party at heart. Shepard there are many stories how it went down. Breitbart said bannon put his resignation on the sixth and others say it was mutual and then others said he was tis missed. The writing was on the wall. When was the president left to deal with a problem he needed to deal with a long time. It was decided effectively from the point john kelly was brought on as chief of staff. There was no sense of them working together. And then introduce this week where bannon seemed to be way off the reservation in terms of public comments. That seemed to put the nail on this. Shepard thank you, josh. More republican law makers coming out against the president s comments. Remember no one on the side of the neonazis is good. Shepard President Trumps battle with his own party and steve bannon out of the a job. Well turn to peter nicholas. With the wall street junioram. Good afternoon. The tennessee senator bob corker said donald trump has not demonstrated to lead. And scott said the moral authority is compromised and what some may be a stunning Editorial Board, obviously you are a reporter there and you dont have contact. But this is what the Editorial Board wrote this morning. The men and women who joined the trumps administration, they have no illusions on the character flaws. They are trying to serve their country. Every person has to decide how long they serve in good conscience. We hope they stay for the good of the country. Washington journal Editorial Board asking the team to stay on for the good of the country. Not a good sign. After the president s remarks in charlottesville. It is a member of conscious. Gary cohenwas at the president s side and was upset by them. Will he stay on or leave. And looks like what we hear from white house sources, he was disturbed but will stay. And i think every official in the white house will ask themselves do i stay or go and do i want to be in align with the administration or distance for sake of reputation. Shepard which are we expecting . So far the center is it holding. John kelly seems to be in conversation with people about what he said. And so it seems like we havent seen mass defections yet. But we have seen in congress. Mainstream republicans on good terms with the president bob corker from tennessee questioning President Trumps competence and stability and we have to take note of that. Corker is not a bomb threer. Hes flown on the president s plane and considered secretary of state and if he is and asking those questions. That is happening in the white house and elsewhere in congress. Shepard you described the statements as a Tipping Point . Yes, i do think that we saw in tim scott, the senator from scouting carolina and bob corker that what the president said in his equating counter protestors with White National demonstrators that that is not okay and crossed a line of convention and discourse in american politics. And the question is, so it looks like a Tipping Point where more people reach the conclusion and announce they will not be aligned with President Trump and that could create problems. He needs to pass a tax reform plan and raise the debt ceiling. And open question. Anything can happen. And the president is attacking back as he said it against the detractors like mccain. Bob corker is a loyal supporter. Do we have any idea how the president is reacting to the comments. We havent seen reaction on twitter yet. But we have to watch it closely and you just wonder, politics is a gachl addition and not subtraction. You are supposed to take your base and expand and not just have people flake off and dismiss people. And tell people you are not welcome. To distance himself with bob corker and it seems serious. You wonder where the support is. Who is left and who are the true blue trump allies. He took a swipe at mitch mcconnell. Is there any defending the president s comments . I am not aware of that off the top of my head. Mark meadows is supportive of the president and concerned about the firing of steve bannon. But i am not sure we heard people rallying to the president s defense about the remarks in charlottesville. Shepard thank you. Thank you, shep.
