Steve Bannon gave glowing remarks about president Trump late Wednesday night during a radio chat on “Breitbart News Tonight”. This is after a cease and desist letter was sent by President Trump’s lawyers earlier in the day.

“A GREAT MAN”

Steve Bannon appeared on Sirius XM’s Patriot Channel’s “Breitbart News Tonight” late Wednesday and called Trump a “great man.” He was asked by a caller about Trump’s comments about him on Twitter and Bannon appeared to shake off Trump’s remarks: “You know I support him day in and day out, whether going through the country giving the Trump miracle speech or on the show or on the website,” he said.

PRESIDENT TRUMP’S LAWYERS SEND A CEASE AND DESIST LETTER TO BANNON:

President Trump’s lawyers sent a letter Wednesday night to former White House Chief Strategist Stephen Bannon demanding he refrain from making disparaging comments against the president and his family. The letter comes after excerpts from a forthcoming book by journalist Michael Wolff were made public Wednesday, causing a stir. President Trump has all staffers sign a non-disclosure agreement which Bannon has now broken…

Trump attorney Charles J. Harder of the firm Harder Mirell & Abrams LLP, said in a statement, “This law firm represents President Donald J. Trump and Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. On behalf of our clients, legal notice was issued today to Stephen K. Bannon, that his actions of communicating with author Michael Wolff regarding an upcoming book give rise to numerous legal claims including defamation by libel and slander, and breach of his written confidentiality and non-disparagement agreement with our clients. Legal action is imminent.”

In the letter to Bannon, Harder, writes, “You [Bannon] have breached the Agreement by, among other things, communicating with author Michael Wolff about Mr. Trump, his family members, and the Company, disclosing Confidential Information to Mr. Wolff, and making disparaging statements and in some cases outright defamatory statements to Mr. Wolff about Mr. Trump, his family members, and the Company, knowing that they would be included in Mr. Wolff’s book and publicity surrounding the marketing and sale of his book.”

During the campaign, then-candidate Trump had all campaign staff sign a non-disclosure agreement which required all staff, according to campaign sources, to refrain from any disparaging comments against the candidate, his family or the Trump campaign and organization.
