After Bannon was out at Breitbart News, Sloppy Steve claimed “he stepped down” from his role with Breitbart, giving the the impression it was entirely his decision to leave. Turns out, that was a complete and total fabrication as it was the Mercer family who forced Bannon out via an intermediary on Monday. This is what’s being reported by the Wall Street Journal:

Breitbart board—Mercers, Larry Solov and Susie Breitbart—spent recent days debating whether Bannon needed to go. In the end, they were united on his ouster. Mercers contacted Bannon thru intermediary on Monday to tell him it was time to go, per source.

Add another individual so consumed by ego to the scrap heap. Trump broke Sloppy Steve Bannon. Any candidate that gets endorsed by him in the 2018 election will be toxic.
