Your general impression of Steve Bannon

[naomi 356]

Curious what it is, even if you didn't follow his time advising the POTUS that closely.

What was/is his strong suit? His relevancy.

His weak suit?

His agenda?

He's an enigma to me.  I think his strong suit is his tolerance for alcohol.

I don't follow him too closely but overall I like him and prolly would agree with him on quite a bit.  He's not always right though.  I think he pushed a couple of candidates that ended up losing the GOP seats in the last election, one, in particular, was Roy Moore.  Losing a Republican seat in Alafockingbama stung.  I think that's when he really started to lose his luster.

He definitely helped Trump get elected though and I didn't like how Trump treated him after the fact.

[RaiderHaters Revenge 4,063]

I think he knows his sh1t, I haven't heard any of the white supremacy stuff we were told about though

Bannon is a media mogul and Jacksonian Nationalist.  He was the guy in the admin to fall on his sword due to the outcome of the Unite the Right Charlottesville rally.  Had some sort of a fallout with Trump.  Appears to have settled on globalism as the big threat, so he works to sell grass roots alt-right policy around the world.

Europe is destabilizing along with America, so his efforts to build the alt-right movement in Europe may be his largest contribution.

[Voltaire 4,974]

I love him. I haven't heard a word out of his mouth that I disagree with in years ... and that's only because I was wrong and he was right all along. He saw what Trump was up to before Trump even ran, I didn't warm to Trump until a year into his presidency.

I'm fully on board. Sign me up for all things Steve Bannon.

[Fireballer 2,607]

Is he even a thing anymore?

[drobeski 3,061]

He's in the news because he ate Bill Mayher for lunch the other day. 

[peenie 1,820]

Watching him now talking to Bill Maher. 

Bill Maher asked Steve Bannon why is Obama called a Socialist when he bailed out companies yet no one calls Trump Socialist for bailing out farmers. The Tea Party was rabid going after Obama regarding the deficit but silent over Trump raising the deficit even higher.

He says Trump will lower it before all is said and done. 

My opinion is I feel Steve Bannon is a smart man who is loyal to Trump.

[naomi 356]

Volty, you'll find this interesting then. What he's been up to: 

5:30 forward is pretty concerning. I didn't take him for an Alex Jones sort of guy, and I don't imagine Miles Guo is either. I'm curious what disinformation incentive there would be to this, but maybe they are just righting disinformation.

 

[iam90sbaby 2,300]

I was all in on the Trump administration until he fired Bannon, I've been pretty meh about it since then

[HellToupee 1,262]

Steve Bannon is free after being held as a political prisoner for 4 months

[wiffleball 4,763]

Scumbag through and thru. 

 

He's the guy that advised Trump and his campaign to "flood the field" with lies and BS to inure people to Trump's heinousness. 

[thegeneral 2,520]

Sloppy Steve!

[purdygood 306]

He always looks like he hasn't had a shower in about 2 weeks.

[Hardcore troubadour 14,214]

Architect of Trumps win in 2016. Trump made the mistake of casting him out to please the deep state. Not this time. The guy is brilliant and fearless.

Don't you democrats ever have anything else to say? Do you all share the same spreadsheet of Trump hate? 

I mean, at this point, just say "I'm a liberal democrat." and we can fill in the hatred you all are consumed with without you having to type it all out. 

I've never come across a more hate filled, miserable group of sour people in my life. 

[Tree of Knowledge 1,453]

It is great this political prisoner is being freed in time to enjoy Trump’s victory next week.  Are any other hostages being released in advance of the election?

The really are. And sad. This Purdy guy thinks having a girlfriend at 34 years of age is some kind of accomplishment . He won’t stfu about finally getting one. I wonder if she speaks English?

I’m more of a Dr. Gorka fan but Bannon is a legendary strategist.

First of all. Great Schtick. Seriously I laughed.  She does speak English.  And I am finally ready to settle down. I've had my share of women before her (50+ not talking age) (although I did bring this one old lady home from a BJ's in Newark CA because i needed a ride home after watching a Sharks game. She might have been over 50)

I can't differentiate or see any distinct personalities in any democrats anymore. They are all clones of one another these past years. I would write a book about this phenomenon but it would make me ill writing it.

Throw in the rest of them. That squid guy, the death guy, the wiffle guy the honcho guy, they all just repeat each other and say the exact same  things in every thread. 

What am I expected to say to any of their replies to anything? "Wow!! This is 700,000th time I see you posting that you hate Trump. OMG!!!  Now I finally understand you hate Trump!"

Your'e right. I don't know you.  But a lot of Trump supporters LOVE him.  Maybe you don't. You're just a voter.  I just want to know why him?

When I was younger I didn't pick fruit or clean toilets, but I did just as hard work for the same pay waiting on and cleaning up after people and I was legally here in the US. I also mowed their lawns, built them gardens in their yards, shoveled their driveways, ran errands for them, delivered their newspapers etc....

What is your point?

My point is immigrants do the jobs you used to do.  But you have grown up, accomplished things, you have money.  You don't wanna do those things anymore. (most American's don't) But they will..  because they want to live the Dream that you did...  those things still need to be done.   Or you can build a wall and go back to doing them yourself.

Illegals don't belong here. Legal immigrants can do what jobs they want. There has to be accountability in this country.

Still gets me every time I see it. 

"I care about individual accountability!" But then I vote for a turnip that has never been held accountable for anything a single day of his silver spoon life. 

By the way, electing a POTUS that will shut down myriad investigations into his own nefarious deeds isn't exactly being accountable. But you know that, and DGAF.

I don't like people doing illegal things.  But if they are here and have been here for yearssssss.... Cleaning my toilets and cooking my Omelette's when I get brunch.  I can look the other way. Especially when they pay sales taxes (with no benefits) when they buy things.   I am 100% for illegal people here, who join the military getting Citizenship after their service time is over.
