Steve Bannon Blasts ‘Javanka’

As Everything Wrong With The White House

My Comment to Bannon: Bannon,
Bannon, you characterized the essence of the American public in error. You thought
It will take time to disinfect this poison and cleanse it from our body politic but it will be done. This nation did not fight WWII for nothing. We fought it, won it and stopped fascism in its tracks. That is the true essence of our people and you missed it.
You have shown what happens when the Republican Party goes extremist right. It is ultimately rejected because some of those others you hate so much who need the help that only government can provide will organize with their allies and rise up to defeat you. Count me in as part of that electoral insurrection. Moreover, isolationism and "America first" foreign policy does not work. We are an economically global society affected by world business and opinion. We must take part in world discourse understanding its needs as well as our own and we must acknowledge science which will have the last word.
I don't know what made you and Trump, as I see you, the
I thought if Trump had changed his mantra and moved to the left of his extremist right positions, ditched his hateful rhetoric and policy, stopped tweeting alienating nearly everyone here and many around the world he actually could have had a charismatic and decent presidency. History would have judged him more kindly. Instead he will leave office shamed and history throughout the ages will define him with a harsh verdict. It will define him as a political
you are to blame in extremis for starting the Trump campaign of
chaos on its road to failure. Bannon, take advice from allegedly
your Catholic faith "Do not criticize someone with a speck in his eye
when you have a log in your own."Bannon, you characterized the essence of the American public in error. You thought
it was reflective of how you feel about life. You took an extremist
right wingnut part of the electorate which was always there but on the
political periphery, ratcheted it up and gave it a screaming voice
using Trump as its mouthpiece. It is why Trump lost the popular vote
by 3 million. An Electoral College fluke did not give you the beating
heart of our democracy. The extremist anger you hold elected Trump
because those who hold that anger are not only are angry but many
are haters of "the other" a left over from history. Lincoln Rockwell
(one of the first American Nazis who was gunned down by one of his own),
George Wallace, Bull Connor and others were always there but got
nowhere because when all is accounted for most American hearts, as Anne
Frank might have said, are basically good and because the arc of our
history is long and bends toward justice in the long run justice
prevails. Your Republican Party has been turned, over many election
cycles since Nixon's Moral Majority, into the Party of hate so the
Democratic opposition has a glowing chance now to not only in one
election crush Republicans but destroy in the process the Republican
Party as we have known it in the modern era.
It will take time to disinfect this poison and cleanse it from our body politic but it will be done. This nation did not fight WWII for nothing. We fought it, won it and stopped fascism in its tracks. That is the true essence of our people and you missed it.

I don't know what made you and Trump, as I see you, the
psychologically sick bestial creatures that you are but to have
inflicted your hate on our once decent hearted people makes me feel
profound sadness not for you but for our nation. You and all you
represent will be defeated soundly soon. Never again,
I hope,
will our nation fail to stop those with a political agenda filled with
psychological malady, perfidy, treason, and the exclusion of "the
other." Our forebears came here to achieve a better life, to breathe
free and for shelter from death itself. Lady Liberty tells us that.I thought if Trump had changed his mantra and moved to the left of his extremist right positions, ditched his hateful rhetoric and policy, stopped tweeting alienating nearly everyone here and many around the world he actually could have had a charismatic and decent presidency.

American
exception to the
general
American
rule. The fault, paraphrasing Shakespeare's "Julius Ceasar,"
dear Bannon, is not in the stars but in you!
