Steve Bannon is out—but the good tweets are in

As expected, senior White House adviser Steve Bannon is no longer part of the Trump administration.

While there are some conflicting reports over the when and why Bannon is out—some are reporting he resigned on Aug. 7, while others say he was fired—there is no doubt that users of the social networking site Twitter had a lot to say about it.

There was no love lost between the more liberal users of the site and Bannon, whom many thought to be a vehicle for the most odious elements of President Donald Trump‘s agenda. They gleefully celebrated his swift downfall from ‘shadow president’ to the unemployment line.

“Darkness is good,” Steve Bannon says as the power is cut in his office.

Bannon wisely timed his departure to avoid having to explain why he burst into a thousand bats during the eclipse

Others pointed out the almost unconscionable amount of change Trump has presided over in seven months.
