Ah?
Steve Bannon COULD use one of those Trump pardon’s….
That’s how much of a friend Bannon might be?
President Donald Trump has repeatedly spoken by phone with Steve Bannon in recent weeks to seek advice on his campaign to overturn his re-election defeat, reconciling with his once-estranged former White House strategist, according to people familiar with the matter.
One person familiar with the matter said the president has sought out allies who would tell him what he wants to hear as he promulgated false claims that the election was stolen from him.
It isn’t clear how many times the men have spoken or how recently. But Bannon has made considerable efforts to get back in Trump’s good graces since he departed as the president’s chief strategist in August 2017 and cooperated with Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation…

Bannon bragged in the book”American Carnage” that he had invented the “Deep State,” and then admitted there was no such thing.
Maybe he can invent some other hobgoblin to stir up the Trump rabble.

Washington Post/ABC News Poll…
65% of Republicans believe there is “solid” evidence of fraud in the 2020 Election.
Reality:Not only was there no “solid” evidence,there was none at all.
While the term, “alternate reality” was being thrown around here as regards Trump.It appears such applies to a “solid” majority of the Republican Party.

The numbers do keep dropping….
Donald Trump is done ….
The post Capitol actions by official’s and the courts and Congress will close the door on him..
Those looking to take over the party and those running for 2024 will step on his back to move ahead….

Your fantasy James. The Times just interviewed dozens of federal and state Republican officials and they all parrot the Trump line. I sent you the article, post it.
He’s already a martyr to the Deep State with these people. Did you even listen to the debate in the House the other night? This is all Maxine Waters fault. Will the Senate convict?
jamesb says
We’re down to 65% from 90% , eh?
Keith says
It’s a poll James. We know you love them but a better poll were the 197 House Republicans who, after being presented with overwhelming evidence that Trump is a traitor, voted against holding him accountable.
That vote will haunt them.
There is also mounting evidence that the Republican rioters at the Capitol intended to kill elected officials and they got dangerously close to Mike Pence. How ironic would it be if they had succeeded?
Our government had a Republican sponsored coup attempt if what investigators are finding turns out to be true.
And 197 Republican Members of Congress are looking the other way. But by all means let’s discuss polls.
Zreebs is right, the Republicans are only interested in power and will obviously do anything to keep it.

SURPRISE!?
Trump Considers Pardoning Steve Bannon
“President Trump is considering granting a pardon to Steve Bannon, his former White House chief strategist and top campaign aide, who was charged with swindling donors to a private crowdsourcing effort to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border,” Politico reports.
“The potential pardon would follow a wave of reprieves the president has recently granted to political allies who have been convicted, charged or reportedly under federal investigation. Two additional batches of pardons are expected — one on Friday night and one Wednesday morning before President-elect Joe Biden is sworn into office.”

Steve Bannon gets his pardon from Trump…..
Democratic Socialist Dave says
Trumpian gratitude.
Bannon steals the money of their rank-and-file working & lower middle class base (cops, nurses, shopkeepers, mechanics, veterans, etc.) and then gets pardoned for screwing the people that Trump says he so lovers.
jamesb says
Yup…..
One crook to another BIGGER ONE….
