This administration is a complete embarrassment.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”

So basically you believe Bannon when he says things against Trump and his family but dismiss him when he says what he really meant and speaks well of Trump and his family?
that's like me yelling at you, and then try to claim that i was really mad at Diam when i mentioned you verbatim.
i can't imagine how many times you've been played in real life. i mean, thats a basic deflection and spin technique that even children know won't work, and yet you bought it hook line and sinker.

Steve Bannon apologizes for anti-Trump comments to Michael Wolff in 'Fire and Fury'
Steve Bannon says he "regrets" his comments made to author Michael Wolff in his explosive book "Fire and Fury" that has shaken the Trump White House. He says his support is "unwavering for the president and his agenda." "My comments were aimed at Paul Manafort," not President Trump's son Donald Jr., Bannon says.

Steve Bannon said Sunday he "regrets" his comments made to author Michael Wolff in his explosive book "Fire and Fury" that has shaken the Trump White House. "My support is also unwavering for the president and his agenda," Bannon said in a statement, first reported by Axios, the political news website. NBC News later confirmed the statement.
Bannon said he also regrets not speaking out sooner about "inaccurate reporting" about President Donald Trump's son Donald Jr.

Fake News readers and friends of Fox all believe this gibberish. I'm here to tell you that the liberals don't have your little made up psychosis, they have serious doubts about the bloated orange toad your kind voted into office.
Who cares that you, without a medical degree or any background at all in medicine other than self medication, try to paint us with your smear of hate brush. You are a small, particularly unimportant lapdog minion in the lap of your corporate masters. Trump may still survive his first four years of presidential bumbling but it will have little to do with you or his keen knack of self preservation if he does.
I think the odds are now in liberals favor that Trump is not going to last. Between his criminal acts being investigated by Mueller, his infantile approach to the presidency, his 'like' being a smart person and his knuckle dragging deplorables keeping his ego inflated; Trump is all but toast.
Now however, if you meant to say TDS (Trump's Dysfunctional SELF), then you may have a point. Otherwise you should scamper back to your safespace hole and wait this one out a little longer brainiac.
Once again, when people laugh at you for your penchant to constantly embarrass yourself by using words you don't understand the meaning of in a humorous manner, like I just did in regards to you saying that you and the stock market were illegally plotting to defraud others, they aren't "triggered" or "butt hurt" or "on fire".

Of course he regrets them now that Trump is winning the far right and he stands to lose everything! BUT he still did not deny saying any of them at a time when there was ZERO conflict between the two men! And BTW, this was also said at a time when you, 40, and the other alt-righters were heaping praise on Bannon by the buttloads!
It sure doesn't take long to fall out of grace with the Orange Emperor and his braindead minions! Bannon went from Hero to Zero in mere minutes! He was a great guy right up until Moore lost! lmao
Pants on fire! lol... TRUMP - Get out there and make this book go away! Minions - But it's all true great leader? TRUMP - Then do what I do best, DENY AND LIE!
In high school, he wanted to prove that men are superior to women, so he ran out onto the track in the middle of a girls' track meet and attempted to race them until he was pulled off.
He also ran for student council on a platform that students should be allowed to throw their trash wherever they want, because that's what they paid the janitors for.

After the interview, Miller was asked by CNN to leave the building (4) times and would not leave, so they called building security and escorted him out.
He has spent his entire lifetime being a jackass protected by his privilege.
Were he to have grown up in Lima, Middletown, Marion, Hamilton, etc he'd have been subjected to monthly swirlies until he recognized his place in the social pecking order.
Guys like him didn't fare well in tough little midwest towns.
Imagine sitting down this dork and instead of saying "OK, thanks for coming in" five minutes later, your response is to hire him to write your foreign policy speeches.
While attempting to discredit Michael Wolff’s controversial new book about the Trump administration, former aide Sebastian Gorka unwittingly confirmed that White House staff were told to cooperate with Wolff. The Trump White House’s pushback against Fire and Fury has largely centered around the president’s claim that he did not give Wolff unlimited access and approval to hang around the West Wing and gather stories. But in a column for The Hill, Gorka revealed that he’d been asked to comply with the author: “When I met Michael Wolff in Reince Priebus’ office, where he was waiting to talk to Steve Bannon, and after I had been told to also speak to him for his book, my attitude was polite but firm: ‘Thanks but no thanks.’”
Trump not only doesn't hire the best, but he clearly doesn't hire the brightest, either.

Have you heard James Adomian's Gorka impressions?
They're so good that even people who support Trump tend to love them.
I often spend a lot a of time focusing on Trump's own stupidity and weakness, but a fair example of it is the losers and freaks he hires and keeps around him.
lol, yea. i saw him do Bernie as well and that had me dying.
don't get me started on Trump's hires. honestly, there's maybe 3-4 that i thought were solid to ok, but the rest is clearly pay for play.
“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”
The only hire he made that made the least bit of sense was Tillerson.
I wasn't on board with it, and didn't agree with it, but at least it was a hire that made sense to someone who wasn't dumb or delusional.
The Stephen Miller hire was one of the funnier ones, because Miler is basically "imagine Screech from Saved by the Bell, but dorkier, with less social skills, and also extremely racist".
Before Donald Trump and Steve Bannon were enemies, they were allies. And not long before that, Bannon was part of an effort to sink Trump's presidential hopes -- even if Trump didn't know it.
A conservative watchdog group led by Bannon tried to discredit Trump in the early stages of the 2016 Republican presidential primary by shopping a document alleging that Trump had ties to mobsters, according to conservative sources and a copy of the document reviewed by CNN.
The anti-Trump opposition research was the work of author Peter Schweizer for the Government Accountability Institute, which he cofounded with Bannon in 2012. It described years of alleged business connections between Trump companies and organized crime figures, allegations that have circulated among Trump detractors for years. The New York Times reported on the document on Friday.
The GAI is backed by the Mercer family, one of the largest benefactors for Trump's campaign. Rebekah Mercer, the daughter of hedge fund billionaire Robert Mercer, is listed as the group's chairwoman on its website. But in 2015, when the document was produced, the Mercers were backing the campaign of one of Trump's rivals, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, and Bannon had not yet joined the Trump campaign. close dialog
In early 2016, at the height of the Republican primary fight, Cruz cited possible mob ties as one reason for Trump to release his taxes. Cruz and his campaign cited published news accounts at the time as the basis for making the charge.
The document offers a glimpse at behind-the-scenes efforts by conservatives to derail Trump's presidential bid. The document is similar to opposition research produced for both Republicans and Democrats targeting Trump. The best known of those is one produced by the Washington firm Fusion GPS alleging ties between Trump and Russians, which now has helped spawn a broad investigation led by special counsel Robert Mueller. "We research political figures from all political parties and our basic premise is follow the money. That's what guides our research approach," Schweizer told CNN.
A source familiar with GAI's work said the group conducted research on all Republican and Democratic candidates running in the 2016 election. Bannon and the Mercers were not involved in the "day to day machinations of the research," but the source said they were aware of the effort to drill down on candidates and share some of that research with news organizations. A GOP operative provided CNN a copy of the anti-Trump document. Two sources confirmed that GAI shopped copies of the document to donors for Trump rivals during the GOP primary. READ: Steve Bannon's full statement on comments attributed to him in 'Fire and Fury' READ: Steve Bannon's full statement on comments attributed to him in 'Fire and Fury' "We did not and would not share that with any candidates," the source familiar with GAI's work said. "There would be no sharing with candidates, with political operatives or anybody of that category." Bannon declined to comment. Bannon, Schweizer and the Mercers went on to curry favor with Trump when he became the GOP nominee and, later, the President. Trump brought on Bannon as CEO of his presidential campaign in August 2016. But Bannon's subsequent West Wing tenure as Trump's chief political strategist was brief. He was fired in August 2017, but remained in contact with the President. Their friendship hit rocky times last week with the publication of comments by Bannon in Michael Wolff's book disparaging Trump and his family. CNN's Jake Tapper cuts off WH aide after he refuses to answer questions CNN's Jake Tapper cuts off WH aide after he refuses to answer questions The President issued a blistering statement against his former political guru, saying Bannon has "lost his mind," and later slapped him with the nickname "Sloppy Steve" via Twitter. Bannon said Sunday he regretted not responding sooner to comments attributed to him in Wolff's book that were critical of Donald Trump Jr. It's not clear whether Trump knew of Bannon's and the Mercers' ties to the document aimed at discrediting him when they became his allies in 2016. However, the Mercers' prior support for Cruz was widely known. Trump regularly cited some of Schweizer's other work on the campaign trail, notably that on Hillary Clinton and alleging corruption. He touted Schweizer's 2015 anti-Clinton book "Clinton Cash", which made use of research by GAI, and urged an investigation of allegations of corruption involving the Clinton Foundation. The book's allegations formed at least part of the basis for some FBI field offices to open preliminary inquiries into the Clinton Foundation. Those investigations stalled in 2016 amid the election. But CNN reported Friday that the inquiries have been given new life and are now led by the FBI office in Little Rock, Arkansas.

I remember when so may on the right stood up for that POS when Trump brought him into his campaign and into the White House. Now suddenly they see him for what he really is.
What they haven't been able to see yet, but eventually they will, is how much alike him and trump actually are. As such, they'll actually repair their relationship in the future and suddenly Bannon will be a great guy again to Trump supporters.
