“The Trump Administration would like you to think they aren’t still plagued with infighting. Wrong. Sad. Babies. Ana Kasparian, John Iadarola, and Maz Jobrani, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. . .
“White House advisers Steve Bannon and Jared Kushner are at war, creating the necessary conditions for a grand press narrative about the future of the administration, the country, and the world. The feud between the frumpy white nationalist and the preppy nepotism case “reflects a larger struggle to guide the direction of the Trump presidency,” the New York Times writes, “played out in disagreements over the policies Mr. Trump should pursue, the people he should hire and the image he should put forward to the American people.” In short, Bannon is pushing Trump to govern the way he campaigned while Kushner is urging him to adopt the sort of useless, elitist centrism that Kushner personifies.””
If the report is true, I hope Mr Bannon is successful. A campaigning president isn’t a governing president. And the last thing I want to see is Trump doing any governing.
*by governing, I mean being somewhat efficient and effective at getting what he wants implemented by the government.
Permanent “campaigning” is a characteristic of a fascist regime, since the elections don’t really matter. Its purpose is to maintain a national fever of hysteria so that the bureaucratic apparatus can govern in the most brutal ways imaginable.
So Steve Bannon and Jared Kushner are in a battle to the death. Is there anything the rest us can do to help both of them lose?
Silly Steve Bannon’s paltry nationalist thinking no longer impresses malPOTUS who having brought the U.S. to it’s knees, now wants the whole world with a big T on it that can be seen from the moon which will also have a big T on it. Bannon lacks the visions of malPOTUS to his demise; not to mention the audacity to tiff with Vice President Ivanka’s husband.
