In reply to the discussion: Breitbart has gone full anti Trump all the time [View all]packman
(16,296 posts)13. History lessons here
Any strong political, social movement when achieving power rids itself of those who brought it to power. Too extreme for even for the extreme. IF - IF Trump was able to with impunity, he would have had Bannon and his type imprisoned or done away with. Bannon is now free to do what he does best - be Bannon and promote his ideology. At this point, Trump is too, too moderate for him - which makes me gag.
Get the popcorn, it's going to be interesting and frightening at the same time.
