Bannon: Why Are McConnell And Ryan Letting Democrats Investigate Trump?

Former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon thinks Republican Congressional leadership is nullifying President Donald Trump’s electoral win by allowing committees to investigate the president.

“The nullification of this election, I don’t think is coming from the left,” Bannon told Charlie Rose in an interview that was released in full Tuesday night.

Parts of the interview aired in a Sunday “60 Minutes” episode, which included Bannon saying that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan don’t want Trump’s “populist, economic nationalist agenda to be implemented.”

In the full interview released Tuesday, Bannon remarked that, “Not only do you have a special prosecutor and the Justice Department and a couple of grand juries. You have on Capitol Hill … with Republican leadership, you have three separate committees.”

  1. Populism is a path that, at its outset, can look and feel democratic. But followed to its logical conclusion, it can lead to democratic backsliding or even outright authoritarianism. Look at Naziism and the Pink Tide of South America. I think that Bannon and his ilk ought to tread very lightly when throwing that word around, especially when populism involves the ire of the middle class against the bourgeois. Of the two sides, it's pretty clear that the president and his cabinet are definitely neither the middle class, nor are they the defenders of the middle class that they propose to be.

  2. McConnell and Ryan {as well as others} are deep blue dog democrats. Similar to rinos, they are like spies, traitors, traitors to the party, traitors to the people, traitors to America. They have no integrity, they hide behind mask and spit upon their constituents and those they are to represent...they spit upon true democracy. They are the most corrupt of the swamp.

  5. The 16 Republicans that shared the debate stage with him, didn't fear him. They ALL thought he was just a putz with NO political experience. And now the Republican members of Congress are treating him the same way. Trump went after his primary challengers, and defeated them all. Congressional Republicans DO fear him, after they saw what he did to the primary candidates. The Republicans figure they can't beat him at the ballot box, so they are trying to defeat him in the courts before the next election. They are playing with fire, because if they are unsuccessful, he will run on a re-election platform that calls for getting rid of THEM. And they know it! The corrupt Congress is convincing me more every day, that the incumbents need to go....ALL of them. If you think the last election was a circus, wait until 2018, and better yet, 2020. You ain't seen nothing yet. Trump MAGA!!!!

  6. I can see the president running for re-election as an independent. Half of the voters are his supporters, the other half will be split between the parties choices. He'll also be able to skip the circus that's the primaries, keep focused on MAGA.
