Default President Trump launches scathing attack on former top aide Steve Bannon

[The USA President has attacked
his formed chief strategist following
the publication of unflattering
claims from a new book.]

https://news.sky.com/story/president...-aide-11194594

To be expected.

After Bannon slammed him in his new book using words like 'treasonous' to describe some of the actions of the Trump campaign.

Bannon was an insider while that was going on so there is no reason to doubt his word. He also has Breitbart so Donnie better watch it that they don't turn on him

If he can start referring to Breitbart as 'Fake News' it's almost a victory really. One that no one can celebrate.

No doubt he'll try every trick in the book to discredit them but when Donnie was cosying up to the Dems leadership last summer Breitbart didnt hesitate to start publishing negative Trump stories. I dont think Breitbart have ever been 100% with Trump so it all depends on who Donnies base believes more

Bannon helped Trump get in, maybe now he can help get him out. That would be a nice gesture.

Hey G, nice to see you x

"so there is no reason to doubt his word"

Funny how that would have been the last thing you would have said when he was working...

Wolff's book, and he has a history of telling the odd porky.

I'm not saying Bannon didn't say these things about Trumps family, I'd like to hear it from his own mouth first though.

Of course all this could just be a smoke-screen for some offensive move Trumps making.

Bannon knew he was on the record during the interview and so far has not denied it so

Agree. This is some kind of distraction.

Wolff probably interviewed Bannon, and everything in that book comes from that, so it is Bannon's thoughts on Trump

He's so presidential......

I don't really trust Bannon's words as it seems he is just echoing what more reliable sources have already said but I'm all for Trump being dragged from all sides.

Bannon is not exactly the pinnacle of credibility. There was an expose I read not too long ago that proves they actively siphoned from the alt-right (the neo-nazi's) to push themselves to relevancy.

Bannon only cares about Bannon. When he came out of the White House he immediately started trashing them to everyone he knew. He's made a name for himself by pushing this perception that he's some sort of political magician and shafts others in the process to maintain this projection. That's his MO.
