director, poured gasoline all over that during an appearance on stephen colbert s show last night. i got caught on tape saying he was so i have no problem saying that. is he going to be gone in the week? that is up to the president. if it was up to me, he would be gone, but it s not up to me. eboni: the white house is under intense pressure from democrats and other critics to fire bannon. today the leaders in four minority house caucuses sent a letter to glenn estimating the removal of steve bannon along with two other prominent white house aides, stephen miller and dr. sebastian gorka. this afternoon, the president responded to what may be ahead for bannon. i like him. he s a good man. he s not a racist, i can tell you that. he s a good person. he actually gets a very unfair press in that regard. but we ll see what happens with mr. bannon.
incendiary, racist and xenophobic campaign zplun true. that s why the white supremacists were energized by what he did. they celebrated his victory and there was a tremendous surge in hate crimes after he was elected. i think we all know what s happening. mr. trump is it s more than a dog whistle. he needs to take it back. he needs to fire bannon. richard cohen, paris dennard, we ll have you back. any time. especially when dealing with heavy matters it s always good to remember the good stuff. we have some for you that will help you get through the day. stay with us. when heartburn hits fight back fast with new tums chewy bites. fast relief in every bite. crunchy outside. chewy inside. tum tum tum tum new tums chewy bites. tand the alzheimer sf association is going to make it happen. but we won t get there without you.
has no place in american government. he should fire bannon and gorka and go through the rest of the white house purging the rest of these neo-nazi sympathizers. and then he should order the department of justice to investigate the neo-nazi and alt-right movement. what occurred in charlottesville was not an accident. this was planned, this is continuing to be planned. there are websites that have been stood up by these neo-nazi organizations to help fund these men to get to these places because most of them are broke. most of them are unemployed. and they re basically organizing themselves like terrorist organizations and the president should investigate them like terrorist organizorganizations. he should treat themny like any occasion there is a muslim terrorist attack. look how he reacted with the london attack.
is, the lack of having the president s voice trying to clean this up emphasizes the problems that he has. let s not forget that something was a problem before. you heard newt gingrich, he came out against kk and david duke. he should have done it immediately now. let s not forget it took a lot of time to get to the point where he called them out. give me a political strategy here. first of all, the reaction from your party and how should they be handling this? well, my strategy would be i d fire sebastian gorka, i d fire bannon and i d fire steve miller immediately tomorrow and get their influence out of the white house. stop altering this guy. trump doesn t know much about politics and he doesn t know much about policy. why have these folks who are members of the alt right having poisoned us with this stuff. that s the first thing. and the second thing is, he does
fact we re talking about it means that the president failed in this very important moment where he should have in clear and strong and unequivocal language yesterday condemned the violence and condemned the groups, the kkk, these neo-nazis and these white supremist groups. he goes on it to say violence on many sides, i mean many sides. it s unclear what he was even talking about. this is an opportunity where he could very strongly made a statement that this is not something that we should consider appropriate in this great country. but the problem is you look at the contents. he begrudgingly distanced himself from an endorsement from the kk during the campaign. he refused to use the word jews in his holocaust remembrance statement from the white housep he has star liff like bannon wi relationships with these groups.
