Fox News: Bannon Bumped Because Trump Unhappy With Him ‘Grabbing the Limelight’ (Video)
Was Bannon Seeking Too Much Outside Attention?
Fox News Chief White House Correspondent John Roberts offered more insight into the shakeup in President Donald Trump’s National Security Council. According to Roberts, Bannon was booted from the NSC not only because incoming National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster wanted to reorganize the top-level group, but because Bannon was seeking too much outside attention.
Bannon, who serves a political role as the White House Chief Strategist, today was removed as a principal on the national security team. His presence had cause outraged on the left and the right, amid accusation of politicizing foreign policy and national security. Historically, White House strategists have not been on the NSC.
“We are also told that maybe the President wasn’t particularly happy at the way Bannon had been grabbing the limelight,” Roberts told viewers.
Watch:
The other, other shoe drops.
