I wonder about that, though. Couldn't that just be Bannon now trying to save face? Notice that it was "a person close to Mr. Bannon" who said that the latter had quit. This doesn't really jive with the interview he gave on Wednesday, where he talked about future foreign policy plans and the people (by name) in various government agencies that he was planning on removing. Maybe that was bluster, but it seems more likely to me that it was honest, and that he's now trying to pull the "you can't break up with me if I break up with you first" card.
