Key quote:

Even from behind bars, Steve Bannon’s message is clear: Republicans want Joe Biden to stay in the presidential race. Why? Because they know it will be better for Donald Trump.

In an email interview with Matthew Boyle from far-right Breitbart News, the former Trump adviser was asked what he made of the Democrats sticking with Biden amid widespread criticism of the president’s performance in last month’s debate and the calls for him to drop out of the presidential race.

“So we got the candidate we want … and the country is stuck with a nonperforming cadaver,” Bannon replied.

      He is in jail. Why the hell is the media quoting this dink from his cell? Maybe major media organizations are opening field offices in federal prisons so they can more easily stay in touch with Trump associates.

    Lmfao who gives a flying fuck what that piece of shit garbage excuse for a human being thinks. He fully deserves to die a very painful death and no one would feel sad about it and the world would become a better place because of it.

      Its important to see what the landscape looks like; especially to understand what your enemies desire and how they think.

      Conservatives want Biden as nominee. Trump wants Biden as nominee. The Heritage Foundation wants Biden as nominee. And yes, Bannon wants Biden as nominee.

      It makes their job extremely easy if Biden stays in the race. If you live your live with blinders on, you might be fooled into thinking that Biden is even capable of winning this race.
