    Oh I don't know, I think the rioters protesting Trump's election, the Electoral College and white privilege will eventually get cold and go home.

    I have a lot of respect for Senator Merkley.
    And none for Bannon, as one of those "dykes" he's characterizing.

    From what I've read, he's never been popular in conservative circles. Regarded as a bomb-thrower of sorts.

    Its a shame (for a lot of reasons) that Phillip Seymour Hoffman passed, as he could so easily play Bannon in the inevitable movie.

    Oh yeah, kind of chubby and disheveled. PSH did that well, R.I.P guy.

    Along with Senator Merkley, Oregon's senior senator, Ron Wyden, weighed In:

    Steve Bannon ran a website that trafficked in anti-Semitism and boasted of being the voice of white nationalists. That’s a fact. There’s no spinning that.

    It’s outrageous the first announcement from the Trump administration is to announce the chief strategist will be a man who not only tolerated hate in every form, but actively courted it and fomented it.

    I’m the son of German-Jewish immigrants. My family left Nazi Germany and came to America. But it’s not just me saying that Bannon is an unacceptable choice. Reasonable people on the left and the right are just speechless that the president-elect is choosing to invite someone with this kind of record into the White House.

    The fact that Mr. Trump’s allies are dismissing anti-Semitism, misogyny and white nationalism so lightly demonstrates a shocking lack of respect for history and starts this administration off on a stunningly wrong foot.


    Naturally, I agree.

    me, too. It's like he's saying out of one side of his mouth he will unite this country and out of the other he's doing everything to divide it. and then the right doesn't understand the protesting
