Rush: Bannon Is ‘Taking Over the Role of the Republican Party'
[Breitbart] Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh said this week that Breitbart News Executive Chairman and former White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon is "taking over the role of the Republican Party" as he looks to support conservative challengers to establishment lawmakers in 2018."I think what Bannon is doing is slowly but surely taking over the role of the Republican Party, and people joining Bannon are [doing the same]," he said Wednesday. "The Republican Party is obviously not with [President] Trump on balance ‐ you have some in the House who are ‐ but the Republican Party on balance is not with Trump." Bannon was one of the main populist/nationalist voices in the Trump White House, fighting to keep Trump true to the "America First" platform which catapulted him into the Oval Office. Since Bannon’s departure, Trump appears to have been tempted by the establishment siren song coming from the donor class, GOP congressional leaders, and the "West Wing Democrats" on a number of issues, including DACA and Afghanistan.
