Count me as one who doubts it seriously.<\/p>\n<p>Many of those GOP &#8220;experts&#8221; also say Bannon&#8217;s promotion portends a disaster for Trump and the party he is leading. He&#8217;ll be able to solidify his GOP base, but will fail to expand that base to include independents, frustrated Democrats or even &#8220;establishment Republicans&#8221; who detest the idea that Trump is their party&#8217;s flag carrier.<\/p>\n<p>The innuendo, though, about Clinton&#8217;s health will make headlines.<\/p>\n<p>It also will give the Democratic nominee some ammo I&#8217;m quite certain she&#8217;s going to fire back at Trump when the two of them meet for their joint appearance.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=jkanelis\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald J.
