bannon is trump's top guy for propagandam maybe right there with flynn and stone. if bannon never supported trump, no one did.
Right. They are both utterly destructive personalities, with similar politics, but Bannon was not blessed with a father as rich as Trump’s.
"I have known Steve and Kellyanne both for many years,” Trump said in a statement released on August 16, 2016 when Bannon was made campaign “CEO” (and Kellyanne “campaign manager.”) Trump then said “They are extremely capable, highly qualified people who love to win and know how to win.”
Soon after his inauguration Trump signed an executive memorandum giving Bannon the authority to participate in the top “National Security Council’s Principals Committee,” and created a new role for Bannon as “chief strategist and senior counselor” to the President.
Bannon was removed by Trump on August 17, 2017, partly because Trump feared he was uncontrollable and partly because he was hated and distrusted by most of Trump’s other top security advisers. Afterwards their relationship had some well-known ups and downs. Trump of course ended by pardoning his “good friend” Bannon before he himself was finally forced to vacate the White House.
