Steve Bannon: 'I could care less' about repairing relationship with media

Steve Bannon, the White House's top political strategist, is showing no signs of changing how the Trump administration engages the national media, even as the president's team is finding itself increasingly defending itself from the press.

In a new interview, Bannon said the media remain exceptionally hostile toward this White House, but that it doesn't matter.

"The opposition party is completely focused on trying to destroy Trump and his administration," Bannon told CNN. "It's not going to happen."

When asked if he would like to see the White House's relationship with the press improve, Bannon said, "I could care less."

Excellent answer.

Screw the lying & manipulative POS's.

They're advocators, not reporters.

In which case, his ability to care more is infinitely higher than his ability to care less.

The media will be doing everything in their power to destroy Pres. Trump.
So I think Bannon’s remark is entirely too mild.

Theoretical scenario:

CNN reporter: “Mr. Bannon, would you like to see an improvement in the White House’s relationship with the press?

Bannon: “My ability to care more is infinitely greater than my ability to care less.”

Stop accommodating the leftist enemedia. Close down the WH press office, kick the usual suspects of the DC media elite to the curb and conduct exclusive skype media briefs/Q&As with flyover media outlets. Only let the major media organizations who can behave themselves (FNC/FBN ) broadcast it and livecast it via the WH website and CSPAN.

I cannot imagine an answer that scares them more. They know the administration means it. They are going to start acting out even more, like any other entitled spoiled child.

Good for Mr. Bannon! Why does the Trump White House have to tell the national media anything? They can all go “F” themselves!

Since Trump started his run and through the election, I’ve stated numerous times the lying fake media are de facto Trump opponents and are literally part of the left/globalist/democrat militant insurgent movement.

Their only goal at this point is to unseat Trump by any means necessary, including assassination. They’ve made this inordinately clear.

That’ it! Trump can’t even get staffers who use proper English. It’s time for impeachment.

I had a fifth grade teacher who was River Brethren. About 6’5” with beard to his belly. Huge man. Carried around two rulers taped together on one end. Would whap me all the time for screwing around. He would go to jail this day in age.
