But even stranger was that members of the Del Frisco’s dinner crew, which included conservative media personalities, thought Kushner was belatedly endorsing an anti-establishment strategy that has many Republicans concerned about losing control of the Senate altogether — one that undercuts the very members of Congress the White House needs as partners if Trump wants to pass any part of his domestic agenda, including tax reform.
“Corker, McConnell, the entire clique — establishment, globalist clique — on Capitol Hill have to go,” Bannon, now a free agent, told Fox News host Sean Hannity in the interview. He added: “Sen. Corker is an absolute disgrace” for rebuking Trump in an interview Sunday with The New York Times.
In the Hannity interview, Bannon — who noted that he has dropped 12 pounds since leaving the grueling White House gig and returning to his old perch at Breitbart News — said he is planning to bankroll primary opponents to every Republican incumbent in 2018, with one exception: Texas Sen. Ted Cruz.
Kushner was partially responsible for persuading Trump to endorse incumbent Alabama Sen. Luther Strange in the Republican Senate primary runoff last month over Bannon-backed former judge Roy Moore, who won. But, at least according to his text, Kushner wasn’t averse to Bannon’s lashing of incumbents.
