Cease And Desist! Trump Puts Bannon On Warning

As you’ve probably heard by now, everything’s really hit the fan when it comes to Steve Bannon.

It was revealed that Steve Bannon stated in a new “tell-all” book by Michael Wolff that Don Jr’s meeting with a Russian lawyer was “treasonous” and that he would “crack like an egg”

President Donald Trump SLAMED Bannon with a statement that held nothing back, and Don Jr. added is two cents in.

As I mentioned before, Bannon seems to forget that he had America’s support because he was on the Trump train, not the other way around…Trump without Bannon is Trump. Bannon without Trump is nothing.

Anyway, according to this, President Trump has personally dictated a cease and desist letter to his one-time ally.

Attorneys for Donald Trump have issued a cease and desist letter to Steve Bannon threatening legal action after the president’s longtime consigliere was quoted trashing Donald Trump Jr. and claiming his father would have immediately been made aware of an infamous Trump Tower meeting with Russians.

The letter seen by ABC News comes on the heels of an extraordinary statement – part of which was apparently directly proclaimed by the president himself – bashing Bannon, the former top Trump advisor.

Bannon claimed a Trump Tower meeting with a Russian lawyer, supposedly to obtain unflattering information about Hillary Clinton, was ‘treasonous’ and ‘unpatriotic,’ prompting an unprecedented brushback of the former White House aide from the president.

Bannon himself, after news of his alleged comments broke, said on Brietbart News Tonight radio show that Trump is a ‘great man’ and added: ‘I support him day in and day out.’

Trump attorney Charles Harder said in a statement: ‘This law firm represents President Donald J. Trump and Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.

‘On behalf of our clients, legal notice was issued today to Stephen K. Bannon, that his actions of communicating with author Michael Wolff regarding an upcoming book give rise to numerous legal claims including defamation by libel and slander, and breach of his written confidentiality and non-disparagement agreement with our clients. Legal action is imminent.’

Legal action is imminent.

The cease and desist letter reads in part: ‘You [Bannon] have breached the Agreement by, among other things, communicating with author Michael Wolff about Mr. Trump, his family members, and the Company [the campaign], disclosing Confidential Information to Mr. Wolff, and making disparaging statements and in some cases outright defamatory statements to Mr. Wolff about Mr. Trump, his family members.’

The letter alludes to ‘monetary damages’ which could be owed to the President.

‘Steve Bannon has nothing to do with me or my presidency,’ Trump said in the statement provided by the White House that torches his former chief strategist. ‘When he was fired, he not only lost his job, he lost his mind.’

Both of those quotations in the statement were pronounced directly by Trump himself, sources told the Daily Beast.

People who know Bannon all seem to think he woks entirely out of self-interest in everything he does. Interestingly, the Mooch got in trouble when he pointed this out (in explicit terms) back in July… but he was totally right.

….I don’t understand what Bannon thought he could gain from all of this
