Fox News: Priebus Named Trump Chief of Staff, Bannon Named Chief Strategist

Priebus ‘did what he had to do as chairman of the RNC and supported the candidate, providing him all kinds of advice and data’

EXCERPT:

McKELWAY: "If you harken back to what Reince Priebus was facing in the early stages of this campaign, there was tremendous opposition to Donald Trump across the establishment board of Republicans in Washington. There was a view that Donald Trump could not win this election. Yet Reince Priebus stuck by him. He did what he had to do as chairman of the RNC and supported the candidate, providing him all kinds of advice and data, which ultimate hi head to Donald Trump winning this election. And then Steve Bannon on the other hand, also we saw very little of him during the campaign. He was always behind the scenes, kept a low profile. It was Kellyanne Conway out in front of the cameras. But she told Chris Wallace just this morning that Steve Bannon was the general of this campaign. He orchestrated the campaign in that sense. The guy has vast experience, and as much as he’s portrayed as I said as a flame thrower of the alt-right movement, he has vast experience as a commander in the U.S. Navy. That’s a wonderful thing to be doing when you’re working at the White House and facing incoming fire. He was an executive at Goldman sax. A successful Hollywood movie producer and a successful publisher of the Breitbart website. So he has vast experience. The two of these guys will be major players in the trump Administration."
