“The Trump presidency that we fought for, and won, is over,” Bannon said Friday, shortly after confirming his departure. “We still have a huge movement, and we will make something of this Trump presidency. But that presidency is over. It’ll be something else. And there’ll be all kinds of fights, and there’ll be good days and bad days, but that presidency is over.”

Bannon says that he once confidently believed in the prospect of success for that version of the Trump presidency he now says is over. Asked what the turning point was, he says, “It’s the Republican establishment. The Republican establishment has no interest in Trump’s success on this. They’re not populists, they’re not nationalists, they had no interest in his program. Zero. It was a half-hearted attempt at Obamacare reform, it was no interest really on the infrastructure, they’ll do a very standard Republican version of taxes.

“What Trump ran on—border wall, where is the funding for the border wall, one of his central tenets, where have they been? Have they rallied around the Perdue-Cotton immigration bill? On what element of Trump’s program, besides tax cuts—which is going to be the standard marginal tax cut—where have they rallied to Trump’s cause? They haven’t.”

As for himself, Bannon says the fight is just beginning.

“I feel jacked up,” he says. “Now I’m free. I’ve got my hands back on my weapons. Someone said, ‘it’s Bannon the Barbarian.’ I am definitely going to crush the opposition. There’s no doubt. I built a f***ing machine at Breitbart. And now I’m about to go back, knowing what I know, and we’re about to rev that machine up. And rev it up we will do.”

To be fair, they weren't the ones who said Mexico would pay for it. That was a promise made by Donnie. He said he would negotiate but all he's been able to do is tell Mexico to avoid saying they aren't paying for it. Basically smoke and mirrors.

To be fair money is fungible and they can pay without writing a check.

If that's the strategy you want to take, then you're a cuck. No self respecting conservative wants the government to dictate what they can and cannot do with their own personal money.

Stop white knighting for Donnie. He promised Mexico would pay. The only alternative to a check is paying in cash, but I don't expect those Mexican BRINKS trucks making their way across the border anytime soon.

The IRS is the biggest form of slavery ever. I see no problem in a tax for money sent across the border.

The people that voted for Trump and elected him are still with him.

Our Lord Commander is beset on all sides by enemies of the people.

Unleash the Bannons of war.

The Republic demands it.

He might end up like his former Breitbart counterpart?

So after the government takes part of your paycheck, you're OK with them also telling you what you can and cannot do with the leftover?


That's the exact definition of cuck. A conservative in name only. You are pushing for big government. Cuck!

Please. I'm in construction, bruh. I know hundreds of people here illegally not paying taxes. And when you tell them you will 1099 them; they go another way. And I'm fine with that. You get what you pay for; but don't act like the majority of illegals are paying taxes.
