It's hard to say, Mark.  I think we have a first class idiot in the White
House and I suspect that he is easily manipulated through flattery. Like if
we step back from it all and just replay some of the tapes - The breakfast
tape was amazing.  How could he begin by talking about his ratings?  He has
no dignitas nor gravitas. And all around him are fawning.

>From this distance it is mind boggling.  He ripped the Prime Minister of
Australia  "Trunbull" a new ass and he is still whimpering.  Meanwhile all
those who want to be Prime Minister of Australia are giggling  but
nervously.

Bannon is hardly any kind of Washington insider powerhouse.  I suspect that
he's regarded with a quiet scorn in many corners of the capital.

However, this idea that he is a dark sinister power fits the usual
Democratic apology for their lack of backbone--which involves building up
the Republicans into a kind of invincible force.  Rather like Monty
Phython's killer rabbit. :-)

Not much new in the article.  What's interesting to me is that is was widely 
carried on Canadian news media.  In the paper that landed on my porch this 
morning Bannon is referred to as a "dark power."
Perhaps not surprising then that Thomas Mulcair, the leader of the NDP, stood 
in the House of Commons and referred to Trump as a fascist.
