Trump risks turning Breitbart into an enemy by sidelining Bannon

Bannon could ultimately decide Breitbart’s direction, himself, if he were to quit — something he has reportedly threatened to do — or if he were fired. He could go the way of Corey Lewandowski, who as a TV commentator remained a fierce advocate for Trump, even after being dismissed as campaign manager last summer. Or Bannon could seek vengeance.

Signs of Breitbart’s aggravation with Trump were visible on the site’s homepage Thursday morning. The headline on an article by conservative commentator Ann Coulter, who has been a Trump booster, read: “LASSIE, COME HOME! WE WANT ‘PRESIDENT OF AMERICA,’ NOT ‘PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD.’ ”

“Trump’s Syrian misadventure is immoral, violates every promise he ran on, and could sink his presidency,” Coulter wrote.
