Is this article for real? How could any journalist that wants to be taken seriously link to an article published by Mother Jones as evidence? It's utterly ridiculous. Mother Jones and Slate have been at the forefront of inventing and spreading many false and debunked narratives about Trump's campaign and Russia. Most notable of all is the story that the Republican platform was changed to appease or satisfy Russia. Utter nonsense. Nothing would indicate Trump's weakness and vulnerability more than firing Steve Bannon in response to all the hatred and scorn that is being heaped upon him. No one that has worked with Bannon from his time in the US Navy to his time as Breitbart publisher has ever accused him of racism. That speaks a whole lot louder than innuendoes and slurs from Democrats and their media proxies
