Steve Bannon Says Trump Is “Just Another Scumbag” and Crook


Steve Bannon Says Trump Is “Just Another Scumbag” and Crook

By Julio Severo
Considering that Steve Bannon was fired by U.S. President Donald Trump after providing information to “Fire and Fury,” a book by Michael Wolff filled with gossip against Trump, Bannon should be ashamed of himself enough to contribute nevermore to any other book else of Wolff.
Steve Bannon
But this is not so. According to a 29 September 2019 DailyBeast report, Bannon has contributed to “Siege: Trump Under Fire,” a new book by Wolff with much more gossip against Trump. The DailyBeast said,
Extracts from Siege: Trump Under Fire published by The Guardian Wednesday show [Bannon’s] antipathy for his former boss hasn’t cooled down just yet. In the book, Bannon predicts Trump’s presidency will fall after investigations into his finances reveal to his supporters that he’s not some incredible self-made billionaire, but a crook. “This is where it isn’t a witch hunt—even for the hard-core, this is where he turns into just a crooked business guy, and one worth $50m instead of $10bn,” Bannon is quoted as saying. “Not the billionaire he said he was, just another scumbag.” Bannon was a major source for Fire and Fury—he described Jared Kushner and Donald Trump Jr.’s Trump Tower meeting with a Russian lawyer “treasonous,” and said Ivanka was “dumb as a brick.”
With his new collaboration to gossiper Wolff, Bannon shows that he deserved to be fired as an opportunist and traitor. In his message on Bannon after firing him, Trump said,
Steve Bannon has nothing to do with me or my Presidency. When he was fired, he not only lost his job, he lost his mind…
Steve pretends to be at war with the media, which he calls the opposition party, yet he spent his time at the White House leaking false information to the media to make himself seem far more important than he was. It is the only thing he does well. Steve… only pretends to have had influence to fool a few people with no access and no clue, whom he helped write phony books.
When an opportunist can no longer use his victim, he attacks him violently. So the new attacks of Bannon on Trump are no surprise.
Bannon’s fate is sealed as an enemy of the Trump administration. He can no longer deceive Trump and his administration.
Yet, he is deceiving other governments.
On September 11, 2019, Bannon met Brazilian Foreign Minister Ernesto Araújo at the Brazilian Embassy in Washington allegedly to help prepare the U.N. speech of Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro. You can read his speech, delivered at the U.N. on 24 September 2019, here: “Conservative Analysis of Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro’s UN Speech in 2019”.
This was not the first meeting of Bannon at the Brazilian Embassy. On March 2019 he was a special guest of Bolsonaro in the embassy.
On the eve of Bolsonaro’s U.N. speech, Eduardo Bolsonaro, the son of the Brazilian president, met Bannon in New York. These meetings are frequent, especially after Eduardo became the director for Latin America of Bannon’s The Movement.
Bannon also regularly meets Bolsonaro’s guru, Olavo de Carvalho. Both Bannon and Carvalho were spiritually influenced by the Islamic occultist René Guénon.
If someday Bolsonaro realizes that he is being used by Bannon and other adherents of Guénon, just as Trump realized, I will not wonder if opportunist Bannon says that Bolsonaro is just another scumbag and crook.
