Steve Bannon 'thinks Trump only has a 30% chance of serving a full term'
Donald Trump’s former senior aide Steve Bannon thinks the President only has a 30 per cent chance of staying in office for a full term in what insiders have said is a White House in turmoil.
Mr Bannon warned Mr Trump about the 25th amendment to the US Constitution, the rule that would allow the Cabinet to vote him out of office under specific circumstances related to how the president's health - physical or mental - impairs their ability to perform the duties of the office.
According to Vanity Fair, Mr Trump’s response was: “What’s that?"
Mr Bannon, who has since returned to the helm of Breitbart News, reportedly told the President his own Cabinet was more of a threat than impeachment by Congress.
The revelation about Mr Bannon, who has been linked with white supremacist views in the past, comes on the heels of a stunning New York Times interview with Senator Bob Corker.
The prominent Republican made the comment that the White House has transformed into an “adult day care” and Mr Trump is the child.
Steve Bannon says he is launching war on the Republican establishment
Vanity Fair reported that sources within the White House have said the president is “unravelling”.
According to the magazine, Mr Trump has been in increasingly “dark moods” and told security adviser Keith Schiller: “I hate everyone in the White House! There are a few exceptions, but I hate them!”
