Steve Bannon theory: when bannon left he vowed his support for trump, even when he was being criticised. He then went to Europe to work with the countries and their elections, he had a big influence in the countries rebelling against the EU.
Makes me wonder if Bannon was sent there by Trump and team because they knew if they could cause havoc in Europe, there would be a major shift.
So the theory: Bannon helped organize the yellow vests, or at least had something to do with. The question I have how come we hear nothing about him in the news.
And did you know, he gave a speech shortly after leaving the WH, where he said, I’ve always wanted to create “a digital army” to change the world? Interesting ehh, Q or Q team perhaps?
I never thought it possible Bannon would say any of those things about Ivanka, Jared, or the admin….I didn’t believe the Wolfe book was anything real or true, and I’ve surmised it was controlled op.
Anyone got an opinion?
After leaving the White House, Bannon declared his intention to become "the infrastructure, globally, for the global populist movement."[26] Accordingly, he has supported various national populist conservative political movements around the world. These include France's National Front,[27] Hungary's Fidesz,[28] the Italian League,[29] the Brothers of Italy,[30] Alternative for Germany,[31] the Sweden Democrats,[32] the Dutch Party for Freedom,[33] the Freedom Party of Austria,[34] the Swiss People's Party,[35] the UK Independence Party,[36] the Flemish Vlaams Belang,[37] the Belgian People's Party,[37] Spain’s Vox,[38] the Finns Party,[37] the pan-European identitarian movement,[39]Republika Srpska's Alliance of Independent Social Democrats,[40]the Brazilian 2018 Jair Bolsonaro presidential campaign,[41] and the Israeli Likud.[42] Bannon believes that the aforementioned movements – along with Japan’s Shinzo Abe, India’s Narendra Modi, Russia's Vladimir Putin, Saudi Arabia's Mohammad bin Salman, China's Xi Jinping, Turkey's Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and America's Donald Trump, as well as similar leaders in Egypt, the Philippines, Poland, and South Korea – are part of a global shift towards nationalism.[43][44][45]
A self-described economic nationalist, Bannon advocates for reductions in immigration,[46]restrictions on free trade with China and Mexico,[47][48] and an increased federal income tax for those earning incomes of over $5 million a year.[49] Bannon is a skeptic of military interventionabroad and has opposed proposals for the expansion of U.S. involvement in Afghanistan,[50] Syria,[51] and Venezuela.[52] He has referred to himself as a "proud Christian Zionist" in reference to his support of Israel. He has been described by some as a white nationalist but rejects the description.[53]According to conservative commentator David French, Bannon has "done more than any other person to introduce the … alt-right into mainstream American life".[54]
Bannon graduated from Benedictine College Preparatory, a private, Catholic, military high school in Richmond, Virginia, in 1971,[60] and then attended Virginia Tech, where he served as the president of the student government association.[61] During the summers he worked at a local junk yard.[62]
He graduated from Virginia Tech College of Architecture and Urban Studies in 1976, with a bachelor's degree in urban planning. While serving in the navy, he earned a master's degree in national security studies in 1983 from Georgetown University School of Foreign Service.[63] In 1985,[66]Bannon earned a Master of Business Administration degree with honors[67] from Harvard Business School.[68]
Bannon was an officer in the United States Navy for seven years in the late 1970s and early 1980s; he served on the destroyerUSS Paul F. Foster as a surface warfare officer in the Pacific Fleet, and afterwards stateside as a special assistant to the Chief of Naval Operations at the Pentagon.[69] Bannon's job at the Pentagon was, among other things, handling messages between senior officers and writing reports about the state of the Navy fleet worldwide.[70] While at the Pentagon, Bannon attended Georgetown University at night and obtained his master's degree in national security studies.[62]
In 1980, Bannon was deployed to the Persian Gulf to assist with Operation Eagle Claw during the Iran hostage crisis. The mission's failure marked a turning point in his political world-view from largely apolitical to strongly Reaganite, which was further reinforced by the September 11 attacks.[71][72] Bannon has stated, "I wasn't political until I got into the service and saw how badly Jimmy Carter fucked things up. I became a huge Reagan admirer. Still am. But what turned me against the whole establishment was coming back from running companies in Asia in 2008 and seeing that Bush had fucked up as badly as Carter. The whole country was a disaster."[73]
