Who knows.

It has to have some legs because if it's false why would any normal person react this... wait...

Bannon hasn't said anything since this news broke. He isn't the problem in case you haven't noticed.

In any case a good look into the extreme dysfunction of this presidency.

It's not like it's some hatchet job. This guy was given access by the administration knowing he was writing a book.

The stupidity of that is incomprehensible unless you work for Trump I guess. At the end of the day this is all self-inflicted.

No reason Bannon has any financial interest in the book. He is just one of many subjects covered.

Bannon's major financial backer has apparently pulled out her support.

Quote:
Stephen K. Bannon's main financial backer is formally cutting ties with the former Trump adviser.

In a new statement Thursday, billionaire conservative donor Rebekah Mercer said that she has not spoken to Bannon, the former White House chief strategist, in many months and that she continues to support President Trump.

"I support President Trump and the platform upon which he was elected," Mercer said. "My family and I have not communicated with Steve Bannon in many months and have provided no financial support to his political agenda, nor do we support his recent actions and statements."

Sounds like this is old news though. Like they pulled out awhile ago.

Populist movements never last long.

I don't know about that. I know for me that I get far, far more pissed about lies about me than I do about truth about me.

I knew the book was full of lies when I heard that Bannon said Ivanka is as dumb as a box of rocks. She's probably a little too liberal for his tastes (mine too), but clearly she's smart and not anywhere near as dumb as a box of rocks.

There is a difference between being intelligent and having politically savvy. I'd bet she is largely ignorant of the world in which Bannon functions.

They don't have to say it. Bannon's words are now gospel to some (most) on the left.

So now we're supposed to put our stock in a white supremacist anti-Semite?

The lefty playbook gets so confusing sometimes...

I thought Bannon's fans on this site said he WASN'T an anti -Semetic white supremacist.

So is he or isn't he?

Only his hairdresser knows for sure.

Wait... now he is a anti-semite white supremacist?

You do realize Bannon is the drain the swamp guy right?

The left didn't like him before and don't like him noe. Same with typical, you can call them establishment if you want republicans. It's Trump people who have yet again flipped.

All I know is the left tells me he's a white supremacist and an anti-Semite (is that redundant?)

And now they tell me I should believe what Bannon said about Trump and Co.

Believe him on this...don't believe him when he says he's NOT an anti-Semite or white supremacist.

Like I said, tough to keep track of the lefty playbook with all the contradicting rules.

I didn't call him those things. The people who want me to take his words lock, stock and barrel are the ones who called them those things, and yet want me to pay attention to HIM now...

Try and keep up. Things move swiftly in lefty land.

If Trump is so unstable and unfit, take him out.

Should be easy.
