Bannon was fired because the Left demanded he be fired. They're demanding everyone in Trump's administration be fired, including Trump.
I give zero craps about Steve Bannon personally and had never even heard of him until he became an "advisor" or whatever to Trump, but at what point do we tell them to jam it and win their own elections if they want to choose people for White House positions?
That hit piece the NYT did on Bannon was a disgrace. They publish these tidbits and you're like, "Wow, this guy is unstable." Then you see the whole interview and the remarks in context, and they sound perfectly reasonable. But, alas, he has been branded a KKK member by the losers of the election, so we must do as they say or they'll call us names and be mean.
AND the Left is all fainting in the streets at the least little whiff of racism when it comes to Donald Trump, while ignoring the terrorist sympathizers within their own party (I'm talking to you, Barack Obama). Because, as we all know, racists are WAY worse than terrorists.
