Did Bannon sign a Non Disclosure Agreement? [View all]

What does Bannon have on Trump? This is an interesting question. I have thought that Bannon's continued tenure in the White House had a lot to do with Bannon knowing which closet some of the skeletons are stored in.

Bannon is a bad guy. And having one less bad guy around is never a bad thing.

But don't expect anything to change. Trump is not going to change in Bannon's absence. It is the poison in Trump that attracted him to Bannon in the first place. And there are others in the White House who hold the same world view as Bannon and they are still around.

For the campaign, maybe, but not for working at the WH. The Velveteen Ocelot Aug 2017 #10

Right. But the campaign was where the collusion being investigated occurred. nt tblue37 Aug 2017 #15

As if Bannon would care. He would simply leak it, this time off the record. grantcart Aug 2017 #5
