President-elect Donald Trump faces a growing backlash against his decision to name campaign chairman and former Breitbart News head Stephen K. Bannon as chief strategist at the White House, a choice critics say will empower white nationalists.

A chorus of advocacy groups, commentators and congressional Democrats denounced Bannon as a proponent of racist, anti-Semitic and misogynistic views as Trump began his first full week as president-elect.

If the Democrats and the media call someone racist for no reason it means that the person is truly a winner.

The media and the Democrats called Reagan a racist when Reagan was saving the economy and winning the Cold War.

They called Rudy Giuliani a racist when he reduced crime in NYC by 75% and saved the NYC from certain bankruptcy.

They call Trump a racist.

They call everyone who is intelligent and effective a racist.

It looks like Trump has made an excellent choice.

You are a public school grad less than 50 years old, right? That illustrates my argument that folks who care at all about the mental development of their children should keep them out of public school.

The media were liars, ommiters and distorters several days ago. Does anyone think they have changed? They will never change. Petulant a**es.

Unlike all the other Republicans in recent years Trump will not be backing down.

Exactly, and the Leftists know that and it’s what has made them so apoplectic. And the cause of this phenomenon can accurately be attributed to those GOP politicians who for years allowed these Leftist thugs to push them around and step all over them.
