This is not just a Twitter rumor. Bloomberg columnist Margaret Carlson was on Greta Van Susteren’s MSNBC show and said she has a source in the White House who says Steve Bannon is on his way out.
Greta sent this tweet out:
.@carlsonmargaret: A WH source told me today that Bannon will probably get the message & resign; he won’t be fired –FTR #ForTheRecord @MSNBC

This is all speculation but signs point to Bannon being shown the door in some way after he started knocking heads with Jared Kushner. I don’t care how long Trump has known Bannon, that’s a fight the family is going to win every single time. Kushner is Trump’s son-in-law and there’s just no way he’ll get pushed out in favor of Bannon.
There are reports Trump told the two to work it out but Joe Scarborough says things are not good:
1/ Reporters were the first to start telling me 3 weeks ago that Bannon was starting to regularly trash Jared to anyone who would listen. https://t.co/USVq7blJwb

2/ So I did my job, talked to a lot of people on the inside and got the complete story early. https://t.co/H2jdJk1VV2

3/ Today's headlines suggest those multiple sources were right. https://t.co/C1XGR3EiD1

It is going to be very interesting to see how this all plays out.
