I'm hearing that Breitbart is ramping up to be anti-trump 100%. The White House is supposedly a democrat White House now, or at least that's the angle they are going to run.
General Bannon is OUT
- Thread starter drjones
- Start date
"He's caving in to the establishment and no longer represents US".
Or something like that.
i wonder, a lot of trump fans are spinning it that bannon will now go on the attack for trump without having the constraint of being tied to him officially.
should be interesting either way eh?
Of course he is out. Bannon called white nationalists a bunch of losers.
Yep. The other day Tramp said he 'wasn't a racist'. Lol. Translation; "he wasn't racist enough", so he was fired.
You liberal bishes better stop this clever guerilla marketing trying to get my vote in the midterms.

Aka pulling a Lewandowski
Worth tagging to this line of thinking/framing: it's easy to celebrate Bannon's firing prematurely if you're against nihilism.
Bannon appears always to have been a puppet of Roger Stone, cherry picked to gain/increase/cement the support of the "alt right" by Stone late in Trump's campaign.
Stone is the constant.
Building a base from a substructure of White Nationalism is Stone's play, and Bannon was Stone's play. Stone has been on the Goldwater "Southern Strategy" train since he was like 7 years old or something. IMO he doesn't necessarily believe in it per se (i.e. as a white supremacist), either, only in its power to drive and divide people. He doesn't believe in anything except taking pleasure in manipulating others, and having the ability to control powerful people and masses of (in his mind) serfs.
Anybody who hasn't seen "Get Me Roger Stone" on Netflix should check it out. Seeing is believing. It elucidates a lot of weird, confusing shit that becomes a lot less confusing once you see Stone interacting with Alex Jones, what Stone's background & motivations are, etc.
Most interesting thing about it is that Stone clearly was laying the foundation to bring Trump down, as he pleases, long before the election was won. He was explicitly stating he had been in contact with Russian hackers, in the interest of getting dirt on Clinton, long before anybody was thinking about Russian interference in the election (as a legal/criminal issue) and questions of treasonous activity. He knew exactly what he was doing.
Stone is (appears to be, from the docu) a psychopath who gets his kicks from turning the US political scene into a grand scale puppet show that puts him at the strings. He probably wakes up each morning thinking about whether now is the time to start pulling the ground out from under Trump, just tickled to death that he has all the cards to do it, or not do it, at his whim.

He's shitting on Bannon (not surprising, since if Bannon is out he's likely behind it), and everything he has to say is in line with Trump's stances & with continuing to back Trump from the shadows in staying with "the base."
If the Trump/Stone connection really gets explored on the level of other tip-of-the-iceberg Trump news, you will see them publicly distance from each other at least once (this has already happened during the campaign, at junctures, and it worked -- the connections & exploring them didn't become major news), but if they ever truly become alienated from each other Trump's going to plummet down like a rock. It will take a lot, since Stone's Trump Project is like 30+ years in the making, but if it happens it will be a fukin political fireworks show "like the world has never seen." The Russia investigation could easily lead to (a) the public, but not private, distancing, or (b) Stone deciding at some point that it's time to sink the puppet. If it comes down to "me or him for jail time" it will be Stone choosing Stone. That will be some shit to see.

Donald Trump: "I appoint Steve Bannon."
Everyone: "Oh, ffs. He and Breitbart are the face of the "Alt-right" He's a Nazi, this is terrible"
6 months later:
Racist stuff happens, and Trump is unequipped (by his aides) to deal with the fallout.
Donald Trump: "Steve Bannon: You're fired."
Everyone: "Thank fuck! Trump made the right decision for the country, maybe he's turning a corner..." "He fired him because he's not racist enough."

Also, congrats on exhibiting your lack of humor recognition (again).
When one has to explain a joke, it loses its luster.
I was clearly joking. Duh.
That is joking about Bannon being racist enough as being the only reason he was fired - that was clearly only HALF the reason.
The other is he basically publicly exposed Trumpaloompa's North Korea war threat as an empty threat. Combined with not being racist enough, and ... ssheeeeeiiit. Bye!
I can very honestly say I have no idea what the fuck you're talking about. Seems like you have a pretty high opinion of yourself though.
I know. It's all way over your head. Just sit in the corner and observe greatness. One day you'll get it.
Nah, bigotry isn't over my head. I see it clear as day. It isn't "great" though.

Former White House Chief Strategist Stephen K. Bannon returned as Executive Chairman of Breitbart News Friday afternoon and chaired the company’s evening editorial meeting.
Ranked the #63 website in America by Amazon-owned Alexa.com, and with the #13 Facebook page in the world, Breitbart News is considered the most influential populist website in the world.
“The populist-nationalist movement got a lot stronger today,” said Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow. “Breitbart gained an executive chairman with his finger on the pulse of the Trump agenda.”
Breitbart News CEO and President Larry Solov agreed.
“Breitbart’s pace of global expansion will only accelerate with Steve back,” said Solov. “The sky’s the limit.”
Bannon joined the Trump campaign on August 17, 2016 — nearly one year ago to the day of his return to Breitbart. He submitted his intention to leave the White House on August 7 of this year.
“White House Chief of Staff John Kelly and Steve Bannon have mutually agreed today would be Steve’s last day,” said White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders Friday afternoon. “We are grateful for his service and wish him the best.”
The Drudge Report hailed Bannon as a “populist hero” who enjoyed an “impressive run” during his tenure as President Trump’s top White House strategist and campaign CEO.

Roger Stone was fired by Trump over two years ago. Then he said, "I wasn't fired, I quit!"
To suggest he's behind the scenes pulling Trump's nihilist strings is ridiculous.
