Why are Trump fans paying Bannon millions to build a wall that was to be financed by Mexico?

    “The Clinton have sold out their own people for cold cash. They are grifters.”

    — Steve Bannon, in a 2016 interview on Breitbart News Radio, while adding the Clintons were running “a money laundering operation.”

    Bannon today was charged with conspiracy to commit money laundering and defrauding hundreds of thousands of donors.

    Well it takes one to know one. I guess Bannon was jealous of how successful the Clintons were at grifting --- he wanted in on the action. But Bannon failed spectacularly in hiding his shenanigans.

    Again, you got no proof or even an investigation to make those assertions other than tripe you read from conservative blogs who make up shit just to trigger dumb Cons.

    Trump's DOJ had four years to prove all the Clinton investigations, they tried (which you linked to in the past) and got nothing. Accept that you were conned like all those idiots who donated money to these grifters and move on instead of your typical childish sophistry.

    Bannon’s fundraising scam is the sort of grift right-wingers have been running on their own voters for decades: op-ed

    Writing in the Washington Post this Thursday, columnist Paul Waldman takes a look at the fall of Steve Bannon, the former Trump campaign operative and political operative, who was just arrested by the feds for the misappropriation of funds from a border wall fundraising campaign that he was a part of.

    “But it turns out that the scheme that Bannon has just been criminally charged with is indeed a species of penny-ante grift,” Waldman writes. “Yet it’s the sort of grift the American right has been running on its own voters for decades, which makes this absolutely fitting.”

    Waldman points out that Bannon’s arrest is the latest in a string of arrests involving former members of Trump’s inner circle. “Why in the world would all these people find their way into Trump’s inner circle? It’s a mystery,” he writes.

    “But the story of Bannon’s arrest isn’t just a reflection on Trump — though it certainly is that. It’s also an extremely common story on the right and has been for decades, long before Trump came along,” Waldman continues. “Conservative operatives such as Bannon have always viewed the right’s rank-and-file with utter contempt, as little more than a collection of fools to be taken advantage of. Their perspective is that of the con man who looks at his marks and says: These people are so dumb, it would almost be a crime not to separate them from their money.”

    What next? Will it turn out that the MyPillow Guy didn't really need to cup balls for a scientific study?
