Related: About this forumSteve Bannon Loves This "Shockingly Racist" Book (Young Turks)
This explains a hell of a lot. And horrifies.
TLDW: Bannon's guide in life seems to be a book called "The Camp of the Saints", a white supremacist fictional book about how a swarm of brown people invade France, and need to be exterminated. Thus our new immigration and enforcement policies.

OH MY GOD! of all the horrible things I've heard since the election, this is probably the worst.

What he is too full of hate and greed to notice is that will include Wall Street and his own wealth and power.
The rich people wont be rich when they devastate the rest of us, that I can promise you. If money has any value, at all.

But in reality he looks like a Nordic bridge-troll in a perpetual vodka stupor.

I remember when the book came out; it caused a big amount of controversy.

Sad thing is all the signs of this were there from the beginning of Trump's campaign. Hard to feel sorry for the "Trump regreters". They are just realizing that they were one of the targets all along.
