Mr. Bannon has been an important leader in the conservative movement and is known for his political acumen

So true. Such an important 4D chess move. We're going to need him in the next phase. I'll admit I know some people who donated to his fund for the Wall that was embezzled that will be upset, but that's politics for you.

I hope he pardons himself and his family. There's still time for him to do something last second in the morning. He could do a pocket pardon for other people without announcing it.

WOW BIG UPDATE:

In addition to the pardons, Trump has reversed his ruling on barring lobbying by former government officials. Yuuuge!!!

Final update

I'm pretty disappointed in the number of Doomers around here recently.

Ask yourself this: Do you really, honestly think that the Liberals, the media, foreign governments, scientists, and RINOs were right the whole time about Trump?

Forgive me. I am a little slow. Can you explain the lobbying bit.

Very brilliant chess move.

In 2017, Trump barred government officials from lobbying and becoming part of The Swamp after they leave government jobs.

Now, he just revoked the executive order.

This is yuuuuge!

Your comment explained absolutely nothing. You just stated historical events. Saying something is “yuuuge” doesn’t automatically make it so.

Why would he want to enable growth of the swamp? Is that not what this does?
