Ditto. Little fuckturd can’t help from depositing a steaming load in every single thread. It’s what happens when cousins interbreed or daddy gets a woody over your sister.

Bannon got the job because he holds these views not in spite of them. Do you really not know this?

Every pro-Trump post you make from now on will be colored by your ignorance of this very basic fact.

Yeah, this.

Trump has been a known, active supporter of Conspiracy Theories for literally years now. He even appeared as a guest on Alex Jones’ show, for fuck’s sake! So why is anyone surprised that he’s knowingly in league with _other_ Conspiracy Theorists?

Bannon’s been itching for a world war for a long time. now he’s trying apparently to tell the pope how to run his church. He seems to think it isn’t militaristic enough or racist enough.
