Buzzing about it. speaking out about what you re about to tell me, is bannon telling a writer for the weekly standard the presidency that i fought for with donald trump that we won is now over? is that what he was saying to you? basically, yeah, he told me that and take this with a grain of salt given the source, that this was not a firing. that it was in the works for a while, thinking about leaving two weeks ago delayed it because of the charlottesville uproar, something agreed to with both chief of staff john kelly discussed with the president and it was clear, bannon told me that he is leaving on friendly terms and going outside to wage war for trump. and not against trump. amicable terms, presidency is over, mutually agreed, war, which way do you see it? i am sort of interested in the take on what he means by that. it seemed to me when i read it ....
There s genuine outrage and dismay about that. i mean the fact that carl icahn, one of his, i suppose, close friends that he talked about on the campaign all the time has now felt it necessary to disassociate himself from trump, and i think once we get over this story that we ve been concentrating on tonight and this important story about steve bannon leaving the white house, this story of trump s comments earlier this week is not going away. democrats in congress will make sure of that. i think we in the media will continue to shine a pretty bright light on it. there are a lot of republicans who want him to repudiate those comments. well, one of the most bizarre developments this is the beginning of the fallout, i think. one of the most bizarre developments about the bannon situation is what the president seemed to be saying and doing this week could only be tailored to the most specific and virulent part of his base. they could be the only people open to this suggestion that ....
I find it strange, bizarre, we have not heard a single word from donald trump today. how can a president who has had someone at his side who helped him win election, upset victory the way he did. he has been with him for a year, not even have the graciousness to thank him. with a perfunctory written note. i find it strange. it suggests there is real animosity. we don t know the whole story yet. i also think that very important to this with the role that steve bannon is choosing for himself could make him more powerful on the outside and could cause enormous problems for the president. because he could begin to split the republican party apart. the old question is, if you ....
All right, for all the unknowns about steve bannon being out of the white house, let there be no mystery of what he will do next. he is going right back to what he knows best, breitbart, the website he once described as a platform for the alt-right. after being fired, bannon told the weekly standard, quote, now i m free. i have my hands back on my weapons. somebody said it s bannon the barbari barbarian, and i m definitely going to crush the weapon. joining me now is gop chairman ed martin, author of the conservative case for trump. ed, thank you for joining us. good to be with you, chris, thank you. so mr. bannon says as the president calls him, the presidency that he won with trump is over. what does that mean to you? does that mean that the ability ....
Believed. but i talked to a lot of conservatives who have said what you just said, that they do think antifa is the same thing. some of them think black lives matter are the same thing. these aren t alt-right people. this is, unfortunately, a much more mainstream republican view than maybe a lot of people realize. i think think back to what you just read in this intro, that one person on his evangelical council has resigned. one person? a bunch of ceos, a bunch of lawmakers. so what does that tell you? is it mike pence? they re loyal to mike pence? they re loyal to this president and i think they don t have they obviously don t have a serious enough problem with this, if they even have a problem with it because we re not hearing from them. we re actually hearing from some of them like jerry falwell jr. who are defending the president. they re listening when the president said i denounce naziism, white supremacy and racism, that s all they hear. ....
