Fresh out of prison, Donald Trump’s former chief strategist warns “it will be Stalingrad every day” if the Democrats try to “steal” the US election.
If serving time in federal prison is supposed to make an offender remorseful, it failed in the case of Steve Bannon. Comprehensively. Not because the former chief strategist for Donald Trump enjoyed his four months of incarceration for contempt of Congress for refusing to testify to a committee investigating the January 6, 2021, mob that ransacked the Capitol.
Prison clarified the stakes for Bannon. His sentence was an example of the way Democrats are “weaponising the government” against Trump supporters, he said. Bannon is now calling on every member of the MAGA movement to be prepared to make the same sacrifice: “I tell people, ‘If you’re not prepared to go to prison, don’t think that you’re going to be at the forefront of this movement to take our country back’,” he told me.
Four weeks ago, he said, Harris had multiple “pathways” to accrue victory in enough states to win the necessary 270 electoral college votes to clinch the presidency. “We’ve narrowed that down and now she’s only got one pathway, through the Blue Wall . We’ve got her cornered. This is what we wanted.” Bannon continued: “On January 6, the Electoral College really comes together. Because until January 6, until the votes are actually certified by the House and the Senate, you can have a contingent election.”
It’s true that Trump was the intended target for the only publicly known assassination attempts of this campaign. But it’s also true that Trump incited his followers to “fight like hell” before they marched on the Capitol on January 6, 2021, assaulting the police and looking to hang anyone in Trump’s way.
