Trump Adviser Steve Bannon is Leaving White House Post (nytimes.com)
President Donald Trump's chief strategist Steve Bannon left his position on Friday (alternative source) as the newly minted chief of staff John Kelly sought to bring order to a White House riven by infighting and power struggles, more than a dozen news outlets report. Maggie Haberman, reporting for The New York Times: The president and senior White House officials were debating when and how to dismiss Mr. Bannon. The two administration officials cautioned that Mr. Trump is known to be averse to confrontation within his inner circle, and could decide to keep on Mr. Bannon for some time. As of Friday morning, the two men were still discussing Mr. Bannon's future, the officials said. A person close to Mr. Bannon insisted the parting of ways was his idea, and that he had submitted his resignation to the president on Aug. 7, to be announced at the start of this week, but the move was delayed after the racial unrest in Charlottesville, Va.
Schrodinger's Bannon.
Linux, you magnificent bastard, I read the fucking manual!
Ah yes, the "no true nazi" logical fallacy.
Inheritance is the sincerest form of nepotism.
He was fired because Trump's conflict-avoiding personality has lead to a psychotic monomania by which he fires anyone with whom he has conflict rather than simply shrinking back into passive-aggressive disquiet.
Trump's... conflict-avoiding... personality... Were you by any chance in a coma during his campaign leading up to his presidency?
Inheritance is the sincerest form of nepotism.
"The CNBC article says both that Bannon resigned and that Trump fired him."
I can see that: "You can't resign, you work for me. You're fired."

Trump's successes
Say what now?
Linux, you magnificent bastard, I read the fucking manual!
The real question is, "Does he use Linux?"
In a statement, Bannon said he wanted to spend more time with Anthony Saramucci's family.
Give alternative facts instead.
He made a hard right out of the White House.
...is staggering. So much winning.
What successes are you referring to?
Well, getting elected as President of the United States does come to mind.
If Trump has demonstrated anything, it's that any idiot can be elected President of the United States.
Calling someone a "hater" only means you can not rationally rebut their argument.
Right, because if there's one thing that defines a secretary of state's job, it's micromanaging security.
She rightfully took responsibility for the decisions made for people who worked for her regarding security for the compound. The buck always stops with the boss. But the scale of the witch hunt embarked on over that incident was just ridiculous.
Snopes.
Oh yes, that reminds me, my fellow cucks and I need to get after him, our checks are late this month!
Ever since, I've been suspicious of Jesus and very careful around chlorine.
