Steve Bannon - "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out"


He described himself as a Leninist. For a while he was Trump's Rasputin, the dark wizard devoted to bringing down the apparatus of the American state.

Then Trump's chief of staff, John Kelly, had enough of the Bannon insurgency and Stevie was shown the door, heading back to Breitbart from where he pledged to continue the alt.right revolution.

Well now Bannon has been turfed from Breitbart too.

According to The New York Times, “Mr. Bannon’s departure, which was forced by a onetime financial patron, Rebekah Mercer, comes as Mr. Bannon remained unable to quell the furor over remarks attributed to him in a new book in which he questions President Trump’s mental fitness and disparages his elder son, Donald Trump Jr.” Mercer rebuked Bannon last week following his public feud with Trump over the comments—a feud that resulted in the president publicly nicknaming his ex-strategist “Sloppy Steve.” In a statement, Bannon said he is “proud of what the Breitbart team has accomplished.”

Well, Steve, cheer up. Here's a parting gift from the legendary Alberta Hunter.

An American patriot? After his lickspittle about turn on the Don Jr. comments he's a big ball of nothing. Man, talk about grovelling. Ha, ha, ha. Patriot, that's precious. Hey, don't you have a cross burning or something to go to?
