Donald Trump, on some issues, also has disputes with Bannon. But now hear this: Bannon is coming from the space of “civic society,” not hate. I get where he’s coming from and going to albeit am not always am in full accord as to how he plans to get from here to there. Such disputes aren’t grounds for fury.
Bannon also shows self-awareness and winsome self-deprecation: “We’re the know-nothing vulgarians.” As for his supposed cocktail party trope about being a Leninist it’s doubly hilarious for his inversion of Leninism to mean anti-Statism and in watching the left recoiling in horror, maybe for the first time, at an invocation of Lenin.
Vilification of Bannon is over the top. Hello CNN, speculation that he’s plotting a coup is pure tinfoil hat cuckoo. Trump, with Bannon’s counsel, is flooding the zone. That’s not a coup d’état. (Might be a coup de foudre, something else entirely.) Bannon is merely playing, to appropriate the title of Chris Matthews’ best book, Hardball.
Apparently hardball’s just fine when the left plays it and appalling when done by populist conservatives. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?
Reporters covering Bannon may just be prisoners of their own dogma. They may be not malicious, just too tone deaf to hear and report the plain meaning of his words, too blind to get a good picture of his deeds.
Whichever it is, Steve Bannon can take care of himself. America, however, is vulnerable. By presenting grotesque caricatures of Steve Bannon the elite media and the left are inflicting injury on the American people and violating their own commitment to social justice.
Ignore the elite media’s imaginary hobgoblin.
Encounter for yourself the real Steve Bannon.

Nice to see a POTUS surround himself with FIGHTERS!
Ignore them
coup de foudre
ku də fudrə/
noun (pl) coups de foudre (ku də fudrə)
1. A sudden and amazing action or event.
2. A thunderbolt.
Old playbook. Nixon couldn’t think for himself, Kissinger had to be pulling the strings. Reagan couldn’t think for himself, James Baker had to be pulling the strings. Bush 43 couldn’t think for himself, Cheney had to be pulling the strings. Trump, idiot Nazi that he is, can’t possibly think for himself, Bannon has to be pulling the strings.
It’s projection: Obama never thought for himself; ValJar was pulling the strings. Liberals: it’s what they do.
Saul alinksy media standard attack
Create a phony villain just like
Karl rove .
He needs to mock openly them in public and call it another Alinsky move by the Dem media complex.
Call himself Rove part II.
rub the phony strategy in these faces
He should grow a beard and have it trimmed in a very evil style just to stick it to the media
They’re attempting the same thing with Steve Miller.
It’s an old DC game: first take down the king’s most effective ministers;then when the king is isolated and alone, go after him.
Jarrett didn’t say she was Leninist. She just was one. Because difference.
I love how this president fights back and wins
For these people to become so upset over Bannon, we are right over the target!!!
The Left’s only weapon now is violence and lies. They must have recognized that their ideology is bankrupt and not worth arguing.
Vilification of Trump by the media is over the top. The corrupt media is inciting violence with their hateful lies.
Bannon and Trump are cut from the same cloth: master trollers of the press: say provocative things that put the MSM and Leftists in a tizzy.
CNN and the rest of the Fake News outlets learned nothing from 18 months of Trump campaigning. Yesterday the mayor of Chicago publicly tried to teach the Leftists how they are being duped.
Great! Get the opposition worked up over meaningless things as Trump keeps signing executive orders to MAGA!
NOTE: Trolling also seems to be working internationally. My wife gets NHK TV in Japan and Trump is getting massive press coverage there.
Over time, reality will set in as people learn they are powerless to change an administration that is committed to change, has competent people at the helm, and is delivering what the majority of voters want!
Keep on winning, Trump and Bannon!
Dizzy! I’m so Dizzy!
It’s a challenge attempting to ‘keep up’
AND NOW New York has decided to become a sanctuary state~
Oy Vey!
MAGA!
Bannon is the squirrel.
All the dogs in the media and the Dims are just chasing the squirrel while Trump does his thing.
“We’ve got him in our sights.....SQUIRREL!” and off they go.
Hey V.K.
If you’re dizzy, imagine the headaches Trump is giving the Leftists and Fake media!
So sweet.
My Safe Place, My Safe Place!
Someone’s moved my Safe Place
Oh Dear - what do I do now? Must find another Safe Place.
