Who do you want to win?

Flynn's area of expertise is Intel, Flynn's job is to give Trump the Red Pill when the IC makes its "reports", Bannon is in the Kissinger chair here, he's the strategic guru, Flynn is not actually the best hand, to send against the Liberal Media & Co.

I fell in love with him when they called a known, avid Israel supporter an anti-semite. That's when I realized he's /ourguy/

Naturally their is a struggle for Donald's ear in the White House. And it seems that people like Mattis and Kelly are on the outside loop, which actually may be good for them.

Bannon's powerplay has it's risks for Bannon himself.

Bannon hopping on the National Security Council and kicking out the JCS and the DNI just to be "if needed" people just makes the NSC just a White House thing and basically puts Bannon into the open to a place of a lightning rod. So what happens when the FUBAR incident happens where the NSC should act? Especially if the decisions are taken without the JCS and the DNI. Guess who is going to be the blame-it-on guy? Priebus can say he's the chief of staff of the White House, but Bannon? The way I knew political advisors made their influence was behind the scenes, not being in a place that they are under scrutiny.

Of course it a positive thing for Trump. If something goes awry, Bannon can take the blame.

Already the green card - fumble, first they would the holders deported and then they wouldn't, is directly put to Bannon. Let's see when it's some problem presented to the NSC and they have to act.

Anyway, Trump seems to need a lot of handlers.

The order was never for deporting known green card holders to my understanding. Please show me where you read that.

During a round of Sunday show interviews, Trump’s aides stressed that just a small portion of travelers had been affected by the order, which temporarily bars the citizens of seven majority Muslim nations from entering the country. The aides also reversed course and said that citizens of those countries who hold permanent U.S. residency “green cards” will not be barred from re-entering the country, as officials had previously said.

That's no "fumble", they are quite obviously being deliberate about rattling peoples cages and stirring up the LibCucks, it plays well for them, this is like when a new Commanding Officer takes over the battalion and then starts messing with everybody, to let them know who is the new boss, people get their noses out of joint, but that is intentional, it's called "putting a bit of stick about".

Of course you override protocol, because protocol is how the battalion will slow walk things to try to keep their empires intact, when in fact the new CO is here to break all that shit up and impose his own regime.

It was 109 people that were detained. Nobody ever said they were to remain detained indefinitely Finnlander.

Trump & Co are fully aware that rapid fire EO's is going to be disruptive, but disruptive is the whole point, and they don't give a fuck what the opposition says about it, it plays well with the base, and the opposition is completely toothless at this juncture anyways.

[TheReal_ND]

and the opposition is completely toothless at this juncture anyways.

It is because remember the senior staff at the state department "resigned" lel.

They can't do shit against him right now.

Oh and funnier yet, before what's her face was fired the media was fronting like when the acting AG is fired nobody could replace her until Sessions was sworn in. Like lol, says who bitches? He appointed one right away. Like are there even rules for this sort of contingency? No. it's just extraordinary.
