President Trump on April 5 removed White House chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon from the National Security Council. Flynn resigned as national security adviser in mid-February so that cannot be the reason. Perhaps national security adviser H.R. McMaster said, “Enough!” and got Bannon out of the way, at least on foreign policy matters. His national security team, with the exception of Tillerson who is on a steep learning curve, is impressive.
