Well folks, here it comes.

Nothing like a partner scorned, I guess.......

'UNLIMITED WAR': Breitbart and the far right start to turn on Trump over his Afghanistan decision

Vocal supporters of President Donald Trump on the far right slammed his decision to deploy additional troops to Afghanistan and ramp up engagement in the US's longest war.

Many of the president's longtime boosters criticized his about-face on Afghanistan, a war he repeatedly pilloried in the years leading up to the 2016 election.

Breitbart News, the site led by recently ousted White House chief strategist Steve Bannon, had a front-page Monday evening full of stories lambasting Trump's decision, referring to it as "unlimited war," and comparing his strategy to that of former President Barack Obama

My guess from Bannon's recent statements, is that this is only the first salvo in what appears to be a growing rift.

I once saw an abandoned Nike missile silo in upstate New York with 100-plus acres for sale - coulda/ shoulda bought it, but didn't.....

But, don't you think it's bizarre for Bannon and Brietbart to start going after Trump like this? Just sayin'...............

Personally, I liked a lot about Trump's speech last night, especially the part about returning operational control back to the military rather than checking-in with civilian desk jockeys asking if its OK (in their opinion) to return fire while they're ordering Starbuck's Grande Mocha Lattes......

I just think that Bannon's losing it.
