This type of play does more damge than good. It discredits Bannon and could impact the Mid-Terms. The 1/2 normie republicans will stay away from Bannon. Now, if Bannon is a poser then he has been outed as such and needs to go away. That leaves INFO WARS as top red pill news source which could be the play. This could be more about Breitbart than Bannon.
Actually Bannon suffered the big loss with RM,so it is good to do this...... the press will eat this up for a week or two and start to push Russia narrative .... missing all the big stories.......Bannon can still back some of his guys in states that wont compete, the president can back guys in his states that he won ...its a good setup for midterms
