Should have stood by Bannon and Flynn.

Trump had to bring the evil into his administration if he wanted to get anything done. If he only had his own people, the (((DS))) would have ignored and ridiculed his administration of non-(((DS))) newbies while they got nothing accomplished. By enlisting some (((DS))) players, Trump got what he wanted out of them and had a successful first term - in the sense of showing We The People that the economy, border, peace, could be great again. The (((DS))) controlled nearly all of the levers of power in '16, Trump had to hire some of them in order to get the things done that Trump wanted. You may think that is being complicit, but that was the only way to achieve success. Politics is a very nasty business, particularly if you are an outsider trying to be successful in getting what you want.
