This makes a lot of sense ???

Kick out the Director of National Intelligence and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and add a bloated, racist, propagandist with ZERO foreign intelligence experience.

I'm sure there will be many true conservative republicans on this board who will blindly defend this insanity

Quote
In one of three executive actions Saturday, President Trump reshuffled the National Security Council to include his chief strategist, Stephen Bannon, and limited the roles of the director of national intelligence and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

The memorandum makes the chief strategist a regular attendee of the principals committee, the Cabinet-level interagency forum that deals with policy issues affecting national security. For Bannon, the Washington outsider who ran the conservative website Breitbart News, it's another area of federal government in which he will have influence.

The Trump strategist is already considered a controversial choice for chief strategist because of Breitbart News's tendency to cater to white nationalists and previous comments he's made (i.e. "turn on the hate").

The memo also stated that the director of national intelligence and the chairman of the Join Chiefs of Staff will attend the principals committee meetings when issues related to their responsibilities are needed. According to The Hill, both officials have been regular attendees to principals committee meetings.

Draining the swamp perhaps?
There's no benefit of having experienced guy in administration if he's working on his own/someone else's agenda you don't agree with.
Don't know what's behind that move but just offering a point of view.

Even Trumpers have to know this smells foul.  We're breaking... and it's only 7 days in.

The same news that said Hillary woulid easily defeat Trump.  The same news that said the stock market would crash if Trump were to become president.
