I see Trump's inner circle now composed of John Kelly (Chief of Staff), H.R. McMaster (National Security Advisor), Jared Kushner (Special Advisor.. and Son in Law) and Gary Cohn (Economic Advisor). They are all NeoCons (Kushner is an outright Liberal Democrat). They represent American imperial adventurism (McMaster), free trade and economic liberalism (Cohn), multicultural libertarianism and climate hysteria (Kushner) and a highly conventional supporter of the political status quo (Kelly).
Trump has wiped out the revolutionary, anti-establishment character of his administration in his first 7 months in office. None of his new group have the vision, intellect or independence to forward any kind of iconoclastic program which is essential to get America out of the hands out of the hands of global oligarchs.
Trump's strengths.. his market savvy, street smarts, political instincts.. got him elected. But he lacks a comprehensive, integrated political vision. Bannon provided that. Trump reacts, he does not plan, and he's going to need a plan. None of his advisors can provide anything different than the failed programs of the past 50 years. Trump's immense ego, his inability to share credit, or take advice, will sabotage his Presidency.
Nothing that's happened up to this point, including the health care fiasco and the concocted charges of racism are anywhere near as serious as the alienation of Trump from this nationalist and populist base that this represents.
He's sold himself out to the elites of his own party who hate his working and middle class supporters and want to lock in the Free Market, Globalist, New Age paradigm that has brought America to the brink. Even the so called faith based cultural conservatism of the the NeoCons is fake. It is intended only to lock up a voter demographic in support of their anti-sovereignty and anti-nationalist economic agenda
I expect that Bannon will unleash a fusillade against these people from Breitbart and other platforms and he'll take a lot of Trump's base with him. He'll support Trump only to extent that he supports economic nationalism and cultural conservatism and Trump will get nothing but opposition to any initiative for that from his own West Wing (and much of his cabinet).
This could be the end of the Trump Presidency as a potent force for change; although it would be foolish to count Trump out. Especially when the failure of path he's chosen which amounts to capitulation to the Republican Establishment becomes apparent.
