A wide ranging interview with Steve Bannon, mostly on China. IMHO, he is spot on.
Your opinion, humble or otherwise, is always valued
Thanks for the post. Bannon is very bright hes good at analysis. Thats his strength
Thanks for this, DJT needs to get him back into the administration ASAP.
IIRC, Bannon said he could do more on the outside.
Thanks for recommending.
He reminds me of Heavensbee, the Games Maker, in the 2nd Hunger Games.
Mr, Bannon says China views the US and the entire West through a mindset called “Barbarian State Management” . believable .
Thanks for the link. When Steve Bannon talks, I listen. There is a reason he and General Flynn were our President’s strategists.
If you want to take a trip into the near future of our country, listen to the full interview with Bannon and Kyle Bass.
Thanks again, LS, for alerting us to this major news. I did not know that Vice President Pence delivered THE major policy speech of the Trump administration last week. Bannon talks about it toward the end of this interview.
Clearly, Bannon knows the long term strategic plans of the President and thanks to “sloppy Steve” getting ousted, he's using his public platform to help Trump get reelected in 2020.

For your ping list.
Thank you very much for bringing this to our attention.
It changed my perspective on what Trump is doing and I also learned a lot of things which, if true and they seem verifiable, I did not know and am interested in. There were some things said in passing that I wish I could hear more about. What Trump is doing still seems like too much too fast but maybe it has to be this way because we have engaged with no consequence instead of confronting China to make something good for us happen.
I never heard of the outfit that is doing the interview but it is supposed to be like a TED talk for Finance. I sure would like to see the tail numbers on those jets but they did a good job of keeping it anonymous.
I thought Bannon needed to leave the Trump Administration because he is a slob and a nut. This interview softens my view about him being a nut.
He is a Trump insider and still is from what I can see.
He is very well informed or so it would appear.
He is a nationalist and a hawk and for that he is right but potentially dangerous. 72 hours is not long to rig down.
I did not like him because he worked for Goldman but he does not flatter them and their kind. So maybe. I still think Goldman and their kin are in cahoots with the devil.
He has a unique view on what is happening with China. If it is not right it is at least thought provoking. Interesting points made on Ding vs. Xi.
I do hope Trump gets to continue this fight but he isn’t doing things to help that on the home front. He is running a great gamble and risk that he will make something good of this and get reelected before it all goes to hell in a hand basket and he does not.
Maybe the Chicoms blinked tonight and maybe they are just buying time. Time will tell.
In this interview Bannon reminds me of a much more articulate version of a fellow I once worked with who, while genius or is it idiot savant, was good to have around but you needed to keep him out of sight or in a room that said, “Break glass only in emergency”.
Steve’s great asset is that, like Newt Gingrich, he is an ultra-broad thinker who understands the connections of many, many things. His great liability is that his focus on doing any ONE thing is short-lived. Remember “We’re gonna primary every single RINO incubent” in 2018? After hurling in an incompetent and unelectable Roy Moore, that totally disappeared. Then it was they were going to do a MAGA movement for Europe.
To be an advisor in the White House, you need more than great ideas, which is why Gingrich isn’t in there. You have to be an absolute “Indian,” not a chief. You can’t talk to the press and show your brilliance. That’s not either Newt or Steve.
Right now the best thing he can do is hundreds of these interviews warning about China.
And seeing three key event come together this weekend, you begin to see that what Bannon says is all coming true and China better soon get the best deal they can...
When Trump exiled Bannon to Europe, he called off the dogs and enabled the huge tax cut deal and other winning legislation. Two years later, Bannon is back to help get Trump reelected.
Continue to daily enjoy your Twitter feed. Thanks, LS.
Pence didnt give a major speech last week. The Bannon video was filmed on October 5, 2018 at an undisclosed location.
