Sometimes I think that the media is really clueless, and insensitive to a rational reality.

There should be an across-the-board boycott, or blackout of anything this fuckhead says or does.

They, in their insatiable desire to get ratings, are enabling a voice of hatred, intolerance, ignorance.

He dishonors all of humanity by not given any respect to the blessing of life that he was given.

Why should he ever light up anyone's TV is beyond me.

so I missed the spectacle of Bannon coming up against someone so much smarter than he is. The Orange Maggot is much more his intellectual speed. I'll bet it was brutal.

I haven't watched news, broadcast or cable, since 2004. They are worse than useless. They've harmed this country.

I imagine at least part of it will be on either CBS or You Tube later. I'll watch his masseter muscles twitch then.

and apparently that includes a lot of groups. After he drains the swamp and gets rid of a lot of the government what does he plan to replace it with. What is his vision. Just bullshit about everyone he hates except of course the working class American. That is who he cares about. Why do people believe that guy. The whole interview I found upsetting.

As for his definition of working class America...he means only white men and not the rest of us. I think Rose did a fine job going after him. Brannon's facial ticks were telling.

Much I already said.

Topics. Obamacare/ Repeal/ Replace...all Paul Ryans fault for failing the DON. Now they may just try to fix it. KKK/ David Duke, Dons embrace ...ridiculous he did not he refuted Duke and they are such a small minority. You stand with DON 100% or you step down!!! Media destroying him.

Here is more.

“I don’t think [Trump] needs the Washington Post, and the New York Times, and CBS News,” Bannon told Rose on Sunday night. “And I don’t believe that he thinks they’re looking out [for] what’s in his best interest, okay? He’s not going to believe that. I don’t believe that. And you don’t believe that, okay? This is just another standard in judgment that you rain upon him in the effort to destroy Donald Trump.”

Rose had questioned Trump’s use of Twitter.

But Bannon said that Trump “knows he’s speaking directly to the people who put him in office when he uses Twitter. And it is sometimes not in the custom and tradition of what the opposition party deems is appropriate. You’re absolutely correct, it’s not. And he’s not going to stop.”

He also said that Trump’s chief of staff, John Kelly, also is “not going to be able to control it, either, because it’s Donald Trump. It’s Donald Trump talking directly to the American people. And to say something else, you’re going to get some good there. And every now and again you’re going to get some less good, okay? But you’re just going to have to live with it.”
Bannon said that in the 48 hours after Trump won, a “fundamental decision” was made that “you might call it the original sin of the administration” — to embrace the establishment GOP as a way to staff up the government.

“Our whole campaign was a little bit the island of misfit toys,” Bannon said. “So [Trump] looks around and I’m wearin’ my combat jacket, I haven’t shaved, I got — you know, my hair’s down to here, and he says — he’s — he’s thinkin’. ‘Hey, I’ve gotta put together a government. I’ve gotta really staff up somethin’. I need to embrace the establishment.'”
In excerpts of the interview released last week, Bannon said that the GOP establishment was trying to “nullify” the 2016 election, and named Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan as figures who “do not want Donald Trump’s populist, economic nationalist agenda to be implemented. It’s very obvious.”

Bannon suggested that the inability to repeal and replace Obamacare was due in part to GOP leaders who didn’t realize the “wide discrepancy” in the Republican party. Instead, he expressed doubts that Congress would be able to totally repeal it.

I suppose this has something to do with "professionalism" or some bee ess, but this fascist whackjob absolutely holds MSM in contempt and wants to see them ended. He has a minority audience............and yet, the MSM just trots him out and spreads his vile ideology around on national prime time............(shakes head)

You would have to watch the whole interview to understand. That will probably be out tomorrow.

Rose took him out. Bannon was angry and unfocused.




I hate the man, yet this was by no means a softball interview. I love when any of them are taken down publicly. They need to be exposed...and Bannon was.

when Bannon was talking about DACA and that they have to go, surmising that they can self deport because your country was founded by nationalists and that's who is to carry it forward, I think the indigenous peoples would beg to differ.
