Eliana had a good piece on it today. I think it is clearly a net plus for the campaign to have Kellyanne Conway in his ear every day, but it’s hard to see how the Steve Bannon thing is going to end well. The problem Trump has isn’t so much with message, or message discipline per se; it’s that he has grossly failed to demonstrate the qualities people expect in a president of the United States. He can be much better at attacking Hillary and staying on message, yet if he can’t clear this basic bar, it’s all for naught. This means he needs to be more respectful, mature, knowledgable, dignified, and disciplined — in other words, all those qualities he has shown little interest in even trying to demonstrate.
