I Know Trump's New Campaign Chairman, Steve Bannon. Here's What You Need To Know.

[Native]

On Wednesday, the Trump campaign shifted top campaign staff: the new CEO of the campaign is, predictably and hilariously, Steven K. Bannon, the current chairman of Breitbart News. I have a bit of experience with Bannon, given that I was the editor-at-large of Breitbart News for four years, and worked closely with Breitbart and Bannon.

1. Steve Bannon Turned Breitbart Into Trump Pravda For His Own Personal Gain.

4. Breitbart’s Staff Lusts After Trump Involvement.

5. Under Bannon’s Leadership, Breitbart Openly Embraced The White Supremacist Alt-Right.

7. Trump’s Campaign Strategy Could Be The Launch Of A New Media Outlet.

8. Bannon Is A Legitimately Sinister Figure.

And so much more...

34. Matt Drudge. Hmmm - is he still at it?

Sure don't see or hear much outta him anymore, and he used to be everybody's darling.

LONG AGO, I remember visiting KNBC (local NBC here) and strolling through the newsroom and noticed, on a couple of people's screens, The Drudge Report. They were reading that while they were doing other stuff, either writing or lining up production notes or something, to prepare for the local evening newscast. I ardently wanted to say something but didn't see any opening to do so. But even back then, I felt - "hmmm.... the infection is spreading..."

2. Fascinating read.

Sounds like this a pivot, alright - in the wrong direction.

3. After reading the whole article,

I need to take a shower.

The slime sticks. Ugh.

5. That's exactly how I felt.

Andrew Breitbart called Trump's new campaign CEO Steve Bannon, "the Leni Riefenstahl of the Tea Party movement." Riefenstahl was a NAZI.

[eppur_se_muova]

12. Riefenstahl produced "Triumph of the Will", one of the most sinisterly effective propanganda films

of all time.

32. wow, Breitbart called him that?

an extreme RWer called Bannon even more extreme?

[Native]

6. Trump, Bannon, and Hannity all at the helm of the new Trump Media Outlet - oh, goody.

These people give sleaze new meaning.

13. And Ailes, from the shadows. nt

19. The Four Horsemen

28. They make Fox News look tolerant.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

7. They keep on replacing sinister figures with other sinister figures.

From Stone to Lewandowski to Manafort and now Bannon.

It's as though "scumbag" is a written part of the job description.

[GusBob]

8. Godwins rule no longer applies to this campaign.

He's the new Hermann Goring

[LongTomH]

27. You may be thinking of Joseph Goebbels, not Goring

Goebbels was Schickelgruber's minister of propaganda.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

9. He lost me when he insisted that Andrew Breitbart wasn't a racist douchebag, but everything else...

.....most certainly seems believable.

[oberliner]

14. The author of this piece is a RW nut job himself

His opposition to Trump is mostly that Trump isn't a "true conservative".

[Tommy_Carcetti]

18. That's very true.

Still, the fact that Breitbart News wouldn't stand up for its own reporter when she was assaulted by Trump's then campaign manager/chief goon Doug Stamper--err I mean Corey Lewandowski--speaks volumes of the wretched condition of that wretched organization.

[sarae]

29. That's alarming in and of itself...

the fact that even the right-wing nut job thinks these other right-wing nut jobs are too intolerant.

[nolabear]

10. This is just bloody insane. They couldn't GET any sleazier or more misogynistic.

Bannon, Ailes, Manafort...

Not to mention this undercuts everything Trump says about being an outsider. He clearly wants to control media.

I'll give him one thing. I despise her but Kellyann Conway is good at interviews. Well, better. She can pull up details and talk over people at the same time.

But man, the disarray. I can't imagine even the foaming-at-the-mouth supporters not going "Really?"

[Coyotl]

11. Plus, Brietbart is a source for LIES, LIES, LIES, LIES, and false propaganda, and LIES, LIES, LIES.

[oberliner]

15. The author of this piece is a far right wing lunatic

Who was/is a big supporter of Ted Cruz throughout the campaign and was the driving force behind Breitbart since its inception.

20. I love it when they eat their own.

[Fast Walker 52]

22. Seriously! But that Bannon guy looks like a total racist asshole from the pic.

[Native]

25. That Bannon guy is freaking dangerous...imagine Trump with brains. This para scared me the most:

Many former employees of Breitbart News are afraid of Steve Bannon. He is a vindictive, nasty figure, infamous for verbally abusing supposed friends and threatening enemies. Bannon is a smarter version of Trump: he’s an aggressive self-promoter who name-drops to heighten his profile and woo bigger names, and then uses those bigger names as stepping stools to his next destination. Trump may be his final destination. Or it may not. He will attempt to ruin anyone who impedes his unending ambition, and he will use anyone bigger than he is – for example, Donald Trump – to get where he wants to go. Bannon knows that in the game of thrones, you win or die. And he certainly doesn’t intend to die. He’ll kill everyone else before he goes.

24. Oh shit, I didn't even read who it was. That scummy Damien from the Omen motherfucker left

that place? Who does one root for in a fight between a weasel and a mongoose?....... I guess you just sit back and watch the shit fly.

[TygrBright]

23. Delicious, isn't it? n/t

[SheriffBob]

26. this is great news,imo.

Trump is his own worst enemy.

He's toast now.

Can't wait for his circus of hate begins.

[mcar]

30. This just gets better and better

[Vinca]

31. Trump is going to go so far off the rails his polls today will look good in 2 weeks.
