President Trump Appears to Sour on Chief Strategist Steve Bannon
----------------------------------------------------------------

President Donald Trump signaled Wednesday he's souring on his chief
strategist, Steve Bannon. In an interview with the New York Post, Trump
said, "I like Steve, but you have to remember he was not involved in my
campaign until very late. ... I'm my own strategist and it wasn't like I
was going to change strategies because I was facing crooked Hillary."
Trump also confirmed a reported rift between Bannon and Trump's
son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner. According to The Daily
Beast, the conflict became so fierce that at one point Bannon called
Kushner a "globalist." Bannon is the former editor of the website
Breitbart.com, which frequently publishes racist, sexist and white
supremacist views.
