Bannon: Man behind the MAGA curtain, has big plans for the world.

Skimmed it. Bannon is definitely a nut job. Interesting response here that caught my eye.

"After the financial crisis I thought it would be a great time to be a leftist. You’ve got a financial crisis caused by irresponsible capitalism, wages are stagnant, inequality is rising. Heck, even I almost turned into a Marxist. But somehow this has been a better era for the populist right than the populist left."
 
Interesting read, even more interesting are the comments at the end of the article....most of which denounce Bannon as a dangerous Fascist lunatic. Would be interesting to see Garland who is now under contempt charges by the house in the same cell with Bannon....

Garland is a government employee and I'll bet he knows the law a little better than Bannon.
 
Of course, both of us could sell from both sides of the desk on this subject. It's shiny coin uni-policy.
Agree 100%. Bannon is the OG of "blame other people for your problems", most of which was founded in xenophobia. But Bannon has a net worth in the tens of million of $s, so he doesn't exactly have the same problems as the people he is speaking to.
 
The gist of this article is that Trump is a tool (pun intended) of the even-farther-right, steering our politics toward fascism. My read, anyway.

You do you.

If this is over the line for HT content, I will take it down, with apologies.
My jist of the interview, is that Bannon is a control freak that would/will use any means necessary left or right to seize power. The biggest danger of "populists". Thankfully he is an exposed kook, and his populist popularity is waning.
