Bannon, Kushner Agree To Stop Fighting, “Bury The Hatchet”

Following several days of media reports that Trump is close to parting ways with his closest advisors, either chief strategist Steve Bannon who recently was removed from Trump’s National Security Council due to his imploding relationship with Jared Kushner, or chief of staff, Reince Priebus, who has been rumored to be the fall guy for the failure to pass Obamacare, or both men combined, moments ago Reuters reported that Bannon and Jared Kushner met and agreed to “bury the hatchet” over their differences, according to a senior administration official said on Saturday.
The end of the feud supposedly comes as it has “distracted from President Donald Trump’s message” although in recent weeks many are increasingly unsure just what that message is, and even more confused that it suddenly appears to echo the message of Hillary Clinton.
As Reuters details, Bannon and Kushner, reportedly Trump’s most influential adviser not to mention his son-in-law, met on Friday at the request of Reince Priebus who told them that if they have any policy differences, they should air them internally, the official said. The development came at the end of what Reuters dubbed “a relatively smooth week for Trump” which is an interesting way of describing the launch of airstrikes against what may well be a premeditated “false flag” in a bid to boost one’s approval rating.
Prebus’ message to Bannon and Kushner was to “stop with the palace intrigue” and focus on the president’s agenda, the official told Reuters. Both aides left having agreed that it was time to “bury the hatchet and move forward,” said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
A slightly different version comes from Axios, which reports that Trump himself addressed his feuding inner circle: “You guys are close. Knock it off. Work together.”
