Bannon thrives on chaos and doesn't know chit about how to govern.
Yep, I can deal with gung ho job creator Trump, but not the fringe extremists he's putting in power.

Remember when they said not to worry that Trump had no experience whatsoever? He would appoint good people and listen to them? Well, he is listening.

Bannon needs to go, alright...into a deep, dark hole where he can't bother anybody.

There is no desire to govern as much as a desire to overthrow democracy. Do a better job you say? I've got news for you, the orange buffoon did not come to to govern either. He came to pillage and plunder. To fill his coffers as his cronies fill theirs. Why would anyone put even an ounce of faith in such a crooked self-serving SOB?

What reported ties are these? I haven't seen anything real. Somehow I think the green card holding residents are getting sorted.

Bannon has already said that Silicon Valley has too many Asian CEOs and now this further advances what appears to be his racially motivated and xenophobic agenda.

As a person of color whose parents immigrated here in the 1960s penniless but determined. They worked hard to became very successful business owners, I am totally insulted by the fact that people like my parents who have been nothing but contributors could be hated because they arent white, but now I know where we stand with this administration.

1. Your story is not special nor compelling. Stop presenting yourself as a special penny. Your parents were handed an opportunity and worked. So what. Join the club. You're new here, period.

2. How many White CEOs are in Asia? #goodtoknow

3. You have it better here than anywhere else in the world. Your agitation is going to ruin that. There is no where else that remotely allows for the integration that this nation does. You'd be best advised to keep in mind that the line for that cooperation is not endless, and that shortsighted and spoiled Leftists are pushing this over its practical limit.

Actually it's Steve Bannon that has me feeling special. I just thought that Conservatives at least appreciate people who work hard, pay taxes and are self reliant.

Now I know that many on that side dont think immigrants and minorities should be allowed to be successful.

I think there is a resentment by some that they are being beaten at their own game.

No I think that when racists, xenophobes and white nationalists are allowed into the highest halls of power, we must be weary and vigilant.

Even a biased person would admit that Mother Jones is heavily biased and is pushing this agenda where there is almost nothing to knit together. This is where you can not find anything the guy has actually said that would lead you to this conclusion. What they do push is nationalist thought, its why Andrew Breitbart pushed for minority conservatives to take active roles and was a big proponent of black republicans so that the left couldn't claim it was racist, because that is what the left does.
That 'article' was slapped together drivel. Sorry, we cant agree on everything.
This is from a proud and successful immigrant....
