uh-huh. I've got a bridge to sell you in New York too.

TwoScoopsMcGee says

Bannon submitted his resignation beforehand, on August 7th.

So he says. What did you make of his interviews this week? Was he just distracting attention from Trump and taking one for the team on the way out the door?

This is the most ham-handed Administration of all time. I think calling it a clown show is being too charitable.

Evidence? Or is this another proof-by-repetition Muh Russia?

"Evidence?"

What do you want evidence of exactly? He asked 2 questions. Do you need evidence to ask a question?

Did Ossof win or lose? How many special elections have Dems won?

TwoScoopsMcGee says

Muh Russia?

It's good that you haven't forgotten about Russia, but it's not clear what your point is. I just wanted to know what your take was on the interview Bannon did this week. It was all over the news yesterday, and is directly relevant to the post that you made.

Muh Russia doesn't mean anything, regardless of how many times you repeat it while simultaneously accusing others of repeating it.

Have you even considered that this is what draining a swamp looks like?

"Did Ossof win or lose? How many special elections have Dems won?"

Ossof beat the typical generic Dem in that district by around 15 points. I'll take that result in every district in 2018 please. Thank you.

"Have you even considered that this is what draining a swamp looks like?"

I just considered it and no, this is not what draining a swamp looks like. Not remotely.

In a primary against multiple republicans, as there was no incumbent to defeat.

I remember the media blowing off 15-point victories of a certain somebody in Republican -only primary races against 4+ opponents. For the one Establishment Backed Democrat to beat 4 equally Establishment Republicans candidates by 15-points in a two-party race is no biggie.

What does draining a swamp look like?

unemployment is lowest in 17 years.

markets have been hitting all time highs for months.

what else is there to care?

Trump is doing a phenomenal job fending off pointless, futile attacks from liberals while the economy steadily improves.

Wonder if Mueller's investigation has uncovered something untoward about Bannon?

HEY YOU says

Wonder if Mueller's investigation has uncovered something untoward about Bannon?

Like voter fraud, meth and porn or whatever that deal is for Bannon in Florida?

1) bannon will be working FOR Trump at brietbart.
2) Mueller investigation over by thanksgiving.

Sorry snowflakes.

WineHorror says

Mueller investigation over by thanksgiving.

That may be true. And in that case, Trump will probably have resigned by then as well.

The attack dog was let off the leash, the lion released from the zoo:

Ousted White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon returned to the conservative Breitbart News website on Friday and said he’ll be “going to war” for President Donald Trump, vowing to intensify the fight he has waged against opponents of his brand of populist conservatism.

“If there’s any confusion out there, let me clear it up: I’m leaving the White House and going to war for Trump against his opponents -- on Capitol Hill, in the media, and in corporate America,” Bannon told Bloomberg News Friday in his first public comments after his departure was announced.

Bannon led the evening editorial meeting at Breitbart, where he resumed his role as executive chairman, the website said in a statement. A person who was on the call said Bannon called on the group to "hunker down" and work like never before to advance conservative causes.

According to a person close to Bannon, he met Wednesday with conservative billionaire Robert Mercer, co-chief executive of Renaissance Technologies and a major financial supporter of both Trump and Bannon’s efforts. The two mapped out a path ahead for Bannon’s post-White House career and discussed how Trump could get his agenda back on track.

The following evening, Mercer and several other major Republican donors had dinner with Trump to share their thinking, and Mercer also had a private meeting with Trump to pledge to redouble his efforts to support Bannon and advance Trump’s agenda.

Our Alinsky just finished training key personnel in the White House, like a Green Beret trains insurgents.

C'mon Democrats, keep up the book burning Virtue Signalling on history. Has anybody seen the polls on Statue removal? It doesn't play in Preoria. The problem with Dem Leaders is they don't think Preoria of any importance, and don't even pay attention those kinds of places. Another thing: Suburban Voters still matter, and they're not like the Professionals and Hipsters living in DUMBO or Austin or Portland or Ann Arbor.

Wait--you're saying Breitbart is going to be pro-Trump now??? That changes everything!!

TwoScoopsMcGee says

Bannon Out

With only 330 million people in America Trump is going to run out of people to hire for white house staff before his term ends. Do you suppose when he hits the end of the population that he will start over again from the beginning so we'll see Bannon reduex?

Ha, earlier today the Dems and Media finally felt they had a real, substantial victory. "Yeah, right Trump took Bannon's resignation on August 7th. Ha! He backed down in the face of our Righteous Statue-Destroying Cause. Come Muslim Allies, let us prepare the goat roast of Victory!"

After having a news cycle to celebrate, they just got told Trump's backers are doubling down on both Trump and Bannon, and Bannon is "Going to War".

I wonder if Bannon's target #1 is #NeverTrump #GOPe Pussies like McCain, Special Snow Flake, and JAG Warfag Graham.

ThreeBays says

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha. The clown in Chief has lost all his allies and burned his bridges with government and industry. Prediction: he's going to resign well before the end of his first term.

Why would he do that? He isn't a wet noodle like you.

Oh so now you require evidence. Lol

Well, considering that Bannon is back as CEO of Breitbart news, it could be a divide and conquer strategy. Breitbart is really taking off as a news entity, surpassing many of the established News sources in viewers and subscribers. Bannon could take it to a point where it rivals Fox News for market share, and just like that you'll have a POTUS-friendly major news corporation.

Considering how well Breitbart has done at tapping into the voter discontent with establishment government, there's no reason to think they won't continue increasing their influence.

If things go well, I could see them organizing a "primary the RINO" campaign next year, whereby we get rid of entrenched GOP politicians who aren't serving the people, and replace them with GOP newbies who promise to do better. That could make a YUUUUUGE difference in the second half of Trump's first term.

ThreeBays says

O rly? I suppose you can manufacture any theory you want to fit your narrative.

Like Stormfront registrations cratered in 2009 and, just before they were booted, were near their all time lows this Century?

"I'm ignoring that. Nazis are growing because of Trumpler!!!"

Clinton News Network not doing so great, either:

Sure, daily results are different.

Here's a day where Fox News beat the shit out of CNN with the "key 25-54 Demographic", both Day and Primetime:

"The Trump Presidency That We Fought For, and Won, Is Over."

Read the whole thing in Context, and then read the first interview after he left. He's "going to war for Trump".

It was a divide and conquer strategy: He got the Dems and #NeverTrump to condemn "It's both sides" and the very idea of an "AltLeft". Every piece of news about AntiFa violence is going to come back to haunt them, because they denied it was a thing. It was a beautiful move. Within hours of gloating about Bannon and Trump losing his base, Bannon came out swinging FOR Trump.

Bannon has been going to war for Trump for 2 years. How is this any different? He's been running Breitbart behind the scenes the whole time. Why is this going to make an difference?

You and your AltLeft pals were just gloating about Bannon being out, and how the Trump Admin is a Clown Show, and now you're saying Bannon returning to Breitbart is no biggie because nothing has changed? Why gloat, then? Make up your mind!

Nothing has changed about him going to war or running Breitbart. What's changed is Bannon is no longer a top advisor with an office in the West Wing.

lol--that you think I'm alt-left though. Anyone with views more liberal than Nixon is alt-left now, huh?

You think Bannon won't advise the President while he's running Breitbart?

TwoScoopsMcGee says

I think the fact that he resigned under pressure is a good indication that his influence has lessened.

ThreeBays says

Got to love the Trumpster's new fake news and detraction, "the Alt-left".

Accurate Term for far left Communists and Anarchists who think Blacks can't be racist and every White is privileged and must grovel before the POCs. Especially Males.

I love #AltLeft, and I know if the use pisses somebody off, they're not really a Liberal but an SJW.

Freeze Peach!
