BOMBSHELL: Bannon Blasts 'Treasonous' Trump
In a recent discussion on The Young Turks, hosts Cenk Uygur and John Iadarola unpacked the explosive claims made by Steve Bannon regarding Donald Trump and his administration. This dialogue centers on Bannon’s sharply critical remarks about Trump, particularly referring to events surrounding the controversial Trump Tower meeting.
Bannon, who formerly served as Trump’s chief strategist, is quoted extensively in Michael Wolff's upcoming book. He describes Trump Jr. and other campaign associates as “treasonous,” a claim reflecting a significant rift within the GOP. Uygur suggests that if such comments were made in any other administration, they would be headline news. The gravity of Bannon's assertions implies serious legal implications for Trump and his family, particularly if evidence emerges that counters their previous statements about the meeting.
Key revelations from Bannon highlight not only the internal conflict but also potential legal jeopardy linked to the actions of the Trump campaign. Notably, Bannon mentions that there is "zero chance" Trump Jr. did not lead the meeting attendees to his father's office, suggesting that this was not merely a casual gathering but potentially a pivotal point of interaction that could alter Trump's narrative.
The discussion also touches on the implications of Russian involvement and the allegations of money laundering. According to Uygur, Bannon’s remarks suggest deeper ties to Russian oligarchs and the financial motivations behind the 2016 election and beyond. Bannon’s analysis indicates a belief that the investigation is less about collusion during the election and more about longstanding financial relationships that could ensnare the Trumps in significant legal troubles.
Overall, this segment highlights how Bannon's public insults and strategic distancing from Trump could indicate an attempt to safeguard himself as investigations progress. Uygur’s commentary is dramatic, suggesting that the tension within the Trump camp reflects a broader existential crisis for the GOP.
