Bannon is a loon, but he does seem to have an uncanny ability to see the level of unrest in the general population.
Bannon also has an ability to animate many members of that disaffected population. The focus on illegal immigration and the wall were Bannon’s idea.
Finally, Bannon is bold. Don’t forget, Bannon founded Citizens’ United, and made the Hillary Clinton film just to take McCain-Feingold to the SCOTUS.
So many of the conservative chattering class were writing about an emerging populist movement in the wake of the 2012 election, but no one had a clue how to leverage it.
The problem with Bannon is success goes to his head. He also wants to keep fighting after he has won.
If Bannon is leveraged as an advisor or consultant, and not allowed to be in a leadership position, he could add value.
The Dims will start investigation on Bannon today.
“He also wants to keep fighting after he has won.
So does my president.
Fighting and winning.
Bannon has helped Salvini and Le Pen win elections in Europe. I say bring back the beast. Also bring back Corey. No more Mr. nice guy. Economic nationalism is on the rise and Steve Bannon is the man.
I’m sure that President Trump will use Steve Bannon in the most advantageous way.
I hope he able to serve Trump2020 in an advisory capacity. Bannon has a great deal of talent and could be a huge asset to the campaign.
