This is a notch below fake news.

I’ll take Bannon over anyone on the right.

He is like to the left how Valerie Jarrett was to us on the right.

Jared Kushner? Isn’t he the guy that was married to Demi Moore? Or was he the Jared from Subway?

It gets confusing....

Why do folks believe this or care. In terms of grand strategy, Bannon probably has the upper hand. In terms of vetting folks who can do shit and run things, Kushner is your man. Each has his strengths.

Conservatism has failed as a governing principle, because it thinks it is just about asserting "true conservative" ideas, something that has failed for the last seven election cycles. See The Anonymous Pro-Trump 'Decius' Now Works Inside The White House and the commentary to understand why conservatism has been failing.

Conservatism fails because it doesn't address governing, it doesn't address running things and getting things done. Even Regan wasn't very good about that. Our pubbies are happy to have progressives govern so long as they, the GOP, get their cut on the deals.

Trump and Kushner know how to run stuff. They have been doing it all their lives. No one in GOPe does. None.

I trust Bannon with the planet.

I didn’t use to, when he turned on Cruz, whom he’d supported for years, until I realized the situation was just like the Dance-off in Grease: yeah, Sandy would have been the quaint, cute contestant, but she had to be whisked away for Cha Cha de Gregorio to WIN THE DAMNED TROPHY.

Cruz didn’t have the size, scope, scale of aggression requisite to bury the Left. Bannon saw early that DJT did.

Jared and Ivanka lean center-leftie, let them have the family office and nothing more.

Save policy for the big boys and girls like Bannon and Kelly Anne :)

I wish the media had investigated and written as much about Valerie Jarrett and Huma Mahmood Abedin Weiner as they do about Bannon.

Well put. I would add, Cruz really doesn’t have the radical mentality, outside the box thinking that is needed. Had Cruz won the nomination, he would have never gotten out of the love nest scandal stage.

Bannon IS our Alinsky.

Why are you posting this item from a hard core socialist rag?

The Forward aka Daily Forward aka Forverts

Origins

The first issue of appeared on April 22, 1897 in New York City.

The paper was founded by a group of about 50 Yiddish-speaking socialists who organized themselves approximately three months earlier as the Forward Publishing Association.

The paper’s name, as well as its political orientation, was borrowed from the German Social Democratic Party and its organ Vorwärts.

Should have checked their background or asked any New Yorker.

Rhe entire list of “articles” is red crazy meshuga nonsense. The list of readers very nearly all dwell on the Upper West Side or the remnants of the Lower East Side.

So far this week they have made up stuff about all the Trumps and none of it comes from any source that has a smidgen of reliability.

... as the new president embraces nationalist policies ...

Nationalism is a loaded term used to make Trump seem like a Nazi. It was originally applied to political movements in ations like Germany, Spain, and Italy where were recently cobbled together from disparate kingdoms into one country where there was no singly unifying national identity inherent to the people thus thrown together. Nationalism blended well with fascism because fascism was about central control of industries, and centralized meant nationwide so it fit but they are not one and the same.

Regardless, calling patriotism "nationalism" in order to discredit it is the game here.

It’s nice that his dad had a tux to lend him, but he should have just gotten a rental that fit.
