Time’s Latest Cover features Menacing Portrait of Steve Bannon (POTUS & advisor have 'mind meld')

Time magazine, in an issue that hits stands Friday, asks whether Trump’s chief strategist Steve Bannon is “the second most powerful man in the world.” Perhaps.

In the piece, Time observes that “Bannon has a mind-meld with Trump” and “has the tools to become as influential as any staffer in memory.”

Time shared a few takes on Bannon from some ex-colleagues.

He sees everything as a war. Every time he feels crossed, he makes it his business to destroy his opponent,” says former Breitbart editor Ben Shapiro.

Earlier this week, the New York Times also focused on his vast influence with an article interrogatively headlined “President Bannon?” The author wrote that “we’ve never witnessed a political aide move as brazenly to consolidate power as Stephen Bannon.”

It is unfortunate for him, but Bannon looks like a HARD CORE Alcoholic...disheveled appearance, bloodshot eyes ALL the time, rosacia face......puffy face....
Poor guy simply looks like hell!

Mind Melds in the weak mind of this so called journalist.

This is about news that never happened, so it doesn’t qualify as fake news! Thanks Chaguito!

Now, I have a new tagline when I reply to a post about news that never happened, so it doesn’t qualify as fake news.

Who got his ears caught in a mechanical rice-picker, no doubt...

I guess Time let go of their substantial team of airbrush artists once Hillary lost the election.

I've thought that, too. The disheveled hip look does not work well on any but younger men (actually, I don't like it at all, but it is particularly egregious on middle-aged and older men). When guys go gray, the unshaven look just makes them look like bums. And don't get me started on middle-aged balding men with pony-tails.

Bannon needs a clean-cut makeover.

Who's to say Time didn't do a REVERSE photo shop on him. To make him more ugly.

These pics look OK.

Never under estimate the evil intentions of the MSM.

Oh, I have no doubt that they did. But when I've seen him on TV and in other photos, I have thought he does not wear the shabby look well.

They all need some rest. I don’t think any of them were aware of what it would be like trying to keep up with President Trump

They all need to be weaned off junk food too

I’ll settle for Bannon’s mind and philosophy. The guy is a genius, and not just in politics. Every interview I’ve read with him is a home run.

(But I’m not in disagreement with your point about the ‘look’)
