Steve Bannon - Every Demagogue Has One
Think of him as the guy who will toss the red meat to the Gullibillies. Steve Bannon, Trump's lead strategist designate and former Breitbart chief, has a lot of people very, very nervous.
Vice News calls Bannon a right-wing Rottweiler. The Bannon/Breitbart juggernaut has inroads to the radical right across Europe and Israel, pretty much any place capable of supporting white supremacists. Breitbart's London organization is considered to have played an instrumental role in nudging Farage's UKIP to an upset victory in the Brexit vote.

"The three largest donors to the GAI are Donors' Trust, the Koch-founded and operated political slush fund through which donations are laundered and sent to various organizations connected with them, Franklin Center, and the Mercer Family Foundation in New York. ...
"Of the total $2.2 million received in 2012, $2 million came from the Franklin Center, the Koch-funded 'watchdog' organization. Perhaps coincidentally, the Franklin Center also received a $2 million contribution in 2012 from Donors' Capital, the sister organization to Donors' Trust.
"From July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013, Donors' Trust passed through $1.5 million to the organization headed up by current Breitbart News managing editor Stephen Bannon and former Breitbart News editor-at-large Peter Schweizer [president of GAI and author of 'Clinton Cash' - not credited in bio on GAI webpage]."
Boy that Koch-Trump rumpus was some pillow fight, eh boys?
Never mind the libertarian blather; we'll throw in the KKK, the White Nationalists and the Neo-Confederates at no extra charge. Up until now those assets have been undervalued.
How's that for a bargoon?
That's an eye-opener, John. Thanks for the helpful backgrounder.
