Trump calls Steve Bannon 'Sloppy Steve' in a tweet
The "adult day-care centre" that is the White House is getting even cattier, with the president referring to Steve Bannon as "Sloppy Steve" in a tweet.
Donald Trump has been a bit tetchy over the last few days, after excerpts from Michael Wolff's upcoming book Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House were made public.
One of these excerpts detailed former White House Chief Strategist Bannon referring to Donald Trump Jr.'s Trump Tower meeting with a Russian lawyer "treasonous."
“When he was fired, he not only lost his job, he lost his mind," responded Trump in a statement released by the White House. He then dropped a cheeky cease and desist letter on Bannon.
Now, the president has dropped another comment against Bannon, maintaining he gave "zero access" to Wolff to the White House and awarding Bannon a nickname that's unlikely to go away anytime soon.

Although Trump's lawyers have attempted to block the release of Wolff's book, the publisher announced that it would move up the book's release to Friday, Jan. 5, from its original Tuesday, Jan. 9 publication date.
A storm is coming.
