Anybody see or read Nazi leader Steven Bannon’s speech to the CA GOP last night? All that was missing were the torches and the book burnings. The CA GOP loved it, BTW, especially where he attacked GWB for criticizing the God-Emperor.
Bannon Slams George W. Bush for ‘Destructive’ Presidency in Speech to California GOP
As ugly as it is out there now, this is just the beginning. Any hope of a sane GOP comeback is now completely over.
Reading the article, a whole lot of Republicans seemed unhappy with the invitation. The end of that article at CBS notes:
Political scientist Jack Pitney, who teaches at Claremont McKenna College, said he doubted the speech would color the 2018 congressional contests, which remain far off for most voters.
More broadly, he said Bannon’s politics would hurt the GOP, including among affluent, well-educated voters who play an important part in county elections.
“Inviting him was a moral and political blunder,” Pitney said in an email.
