“I think this is perfect for President Trump,” Bannon said in response. “In fact, if I was the campaign or the RNC I would amplify the messages coming out of this convention and here is why: President Trump won in [20]16 because he stood up for America, he stood up for working class and middle class people against a financial and political elite that was driving the managed decline of the United States and you’re going to see it over the next four days. More globalization, more economic devastation, now coupled with this anarchy with Antifa and certain elements of the Black Lives Matter [movement].”
“It comes down to a bold choice: Do you want the America of globalization and of Joe Biden and the political and financial elites, or do you want the America First economic nationalism and populism of Donald Trump?”
“Also Joe Biden was put in charge by President Obama of the pivot to Asia and what did the Democrats do? They cut a terrible deal with Iran that then partnered with the Chinese communist party,” Bannon said. “It was Joe Biden that fumbled the pivot to Asia. It was Joe Biden that basically gave away the South China Sea, walked away from the cyber intrusions. It was Joe Biden put in charge of trying to confront the Chinese communist party and he failed.”
“I think this week is going to be great for the Trump campaign and the RNC [Republican National Convention] and the White House to let the American people see exactly what the [Democrats’] policies are,” Bannon told host Maria Bartiromo. “They want death and destruction. They want the death of the American economy and the destruction of the American way of life, and I think if that’s highlighted by the end of the week, it’ll smoke Joe Biden out of his basement.”
