One thing about RNCPRBS - he's definitely mainstream Republican. He was the member of the troika that pulls for civilization. Bannon? He represents the Paladin Press wing of the Republican Party - they're Republican only because there's no viable fascist party. Then there's the ideology-free filthy lucre wing represented by Jared Kushner and Ivanka.

By eliminating RNCPRBS, any plausible influence the Republican Party has over the executive branch has evaporated. This is why things like Russia sanctions passing by 98-2. Considering how aggressively useless the Trump administration has been in advancing congress' agenda, I wonder how much loyalty they'll have for that shitshow in the future.

And I wonder how hard they'll kick Bannon when he's down.

And I wonder how long until Kushner and Ivanka curbsmile his ass.
