Steve Bannon is on the way out. Far from being an evil Svengali whom Trump can’t resist, Bannon was a useful hanger on whom Trump has more or less dumped.

So, who IS Trump listening to now? His son-in-law Jared Kushner and economic advisor Gary Cohn.

Wait… Kushner? Cohn? Oh my God, Jewish liberal Democrats are running the White House now! The alt-right is already realizing how stupid it was to take Mr. Toad of Toad Hall seriously. The alt-Right will soon be castigating Trump as a puppet of the Zionists!

And the Left will have to realize that Trump not only ISN’T an anti-semite, he’s leaning on Jews for all his advice. Not Republican Jews either!

I suspect Neil Gorsuch is the last conservative judge Trump will ever appoint. Trump has already sent Ivanka to try to make nice with Planned Parenthood (unsuccessfully, but give it time). If Breyer or Ginsburg were to die next year, I predict Chuck Schumer will be very pleased with the replacement.

Both the far right and the mainstream right will soon see how dumb it was to put any trust in Trump. And the Left will start making peace with him sooner than you expect.
