Inside the White House, Steve Bannon was a conniving and self-serving politico. Outside the White House, Bannon is just as conniving and just as self-serving. But now he’s a private citizen and, as such, the administration has no business meddling in personnel decisions about his tenure at Breitbart News.

That didn’t stop White House press secretary Sarah Sanders from weighing in. Asked if Bannon should get the boot at Breitbart, the press secretary told the press corps, “I certainly think that it’s something they should look at and consider.” Of course, few people would shed many tears if that outlet followed her advice.
