How would you judge him, is he an idealist whether you like his point of view or not, or is he a fraud whose interest is solely personal benefit?
Now, that's an interesting question.

I think he's an evil, dangerous guy - but I think he's an idealist, not a fraud.

Isn't it pretty clear what he is?

I'm rather pro Trump, don't know what to think about Bannon though, I don't see how the European right needs him, at the end he might do more harm than being a help (from a right wing view).

He has not saved America yet, I'm not too convinced about Trump, his poor politics (?) might result in a left wing backlash and make things worse then they were before.


To those who voted Trump, are you pleased so far and do the liberal media missrepresent him?

I think it was a recent NBC poll in conjunction with another liberal group that showed Trump supporters still favor him 88%, highest since George W Bush after 9/11. Trump has fulfilled many campaign promises and a research group said in the first year he has achieved 64% of his agenda.

Left wing media has been revealed as doing 90% negative reporting on Trump which is why if that is your only news source, you think Trump has done nothing. I'm constantly educating people.

You can watch Fox News on youtube by the way. The live streaming channels constantly change as they are taken down for copyright violations. There are other websites that offer free streaming on all the US and many foreign channels. Don't know if they are legal or not. Avoid CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC and the BBC in the UK. Let's remember that a lot of these channels are global corporations.

Sven, if you want to know what Trump has done you can watch on the White House youtube channel. Trump uncensored is very different from the media version. Most people remark how different he is than they expected, even world leaders.

I was just about to start a thread about his interview at a CNBC event, Delivering Alpha, which was fascinating. This event was focused on China but as always, he veers off into many topics. If you are unfamiliar with him and only read fake news leftist, globalist media which hate him, you will be pleasantly surprised.

The same video is posted on youtube but for some reason couldn't open it

You can also find several videos on youtube in the past few months where he was interviewed by the BBC and The Telegraph which are more Eurocentric. Bannon is always a compelling speaker.
But Bannon always looks drunk and disheveled

Bannon's still free, right. Take a chance on him.

Why did Trump fire Bannon then? Who on earth would take Fox news seriously? This is the network that took action in a Florida court to protect it's right, under the first amendment, to lie to it's viewers.
Fox news is the mouth piece for the Republican party.

I realize that Trump is eager to keep his promises and that he is no emperor that can do as he pleases in any issue, he just appears unprofessional and clownish to a certain degree but this also makes him likeable.



If I understand your first post right, Bannon works as a kind of consultant for the European Right rather than to try to personally interfere in European politics?

This is a long, very informative article. Lots of information.
"Bannon is moving to Europe to set up The Movement, a populist foundation to rival George Soros and spark a right-wing revolt across the continent."
