This is SOOO much more fun than worrying about nuclear annihilation!

It's been a crazy morning, I've agreed with Bannon about Trump and then Trump about Bannon. The amount of 11-dimensional chess going on right now is astonishing.
Ever heard the tale of the Frog and the Scorpion?
Stop the flattering. They're not THAT smart.The amount of 11-dimensional chess going on right now is astonishing.

Bannon is many horrible things, but unlike Trump, one of them isn't stupid. Why does he think this will advance his goals long term?
Bannon's been 'unchained' for some time now, ultimately I wonder what his aim is.
“I’m a Leninist,” Bannon proudly proclaimed.
Shocked, I asked him what he meant. “Lenin,” he answered, “wanted to destroy the state, and that’s my goal too. I want to bring everything crashing down, and destroy all of today’s establishment.” Bannon was employing Lenin’s strategy for Tea Party populist goals. He included in that group the Republican and Democratic Parties, as well as the traditional conservative press.
There is no secret about what his aim is. It's been known a long time, and today's chaos fits very neatly with it:
Tearing apart Trump is just another step in the long-term goal to burn America to the ground so that we may rise like a Bannon-faced Phoenix. *puke emoji*
Bannon's been 'unchained' for some time now, ultimately I wonder what his aim is. I assume he's as racist, sexist, authoritarian, and drunk as he often seems,
Or the axiom, "lie down with dogs..."?
Hey, Rodimus take offense at being lumped in with those yahoos
This should have been the angle from the get-go--going after Wolff's reputation--but Trump mucked it up with his diatribe statement, and then the Cease and Desist, which clearly says Bannon "disclosed," as opposed to "told outright lies." Also, Bannon's getting all the press, but the sheer volume of interviews means Trump can't put enough fingers in the dike. As always, his ardent supporters won't think a thing of any of this. In fact, I'm sure they're cheering the way he talks to people like Hope Hicks. "Straight-talkin' manly man talk, like real people sound." *barf emoji again*
