Breitbart Rally Radio

         My habit is to get up at 6 AM every morning and turn on Breitbart radio while booting up the computer to work on these posts. I'm not looking forward to it anymore because Steve Bannon is back running the morning show with his rat-a-tat-tat...in your face....Trump is great....rally radio.
         In case you haven't heard....Breitbart radio is expanding on Sirius XM to 9-12 PM (ET) with a couple of their minor prophets hosting that show while Steve Bannon is returning to his old morning hosting. What's particularly sad about this is that Alex Marlowe was very good but with Steve Bannon at his side he's relegated to the role of Ed McMahon....Bannon's personality is too strong....plus he's the boss....and few are going to stand up to him.....no one who's there anymore anyway. Raheem Kassam had been an integral part of Marlowe's successful morning show. He'll be hosting on Saturdays. We'll have to wait and see how that develops.
          Steve Bannon likes to say that Donald Trump is the most powerful speaker on a national scale in recent memory.....or words similar to that,....but Bannon himself is the oratorical tour de force unlike anything I have ever seen before. That's what worries me. I watched him speak last night before Black Americans For A Better Future.  It was powerful stuff. He had them eating out of the palm of his hand......just as he has evangelicals throwing palm branches before President Trump. Typical of Steve Bannon to the callers is....as I wrote in September when it looked like he was coming back.... 'you run the show...you control the tempo'....don't believe it.....you're being herded folks!      
           Is Donald Trump better than Hillary Clinton? That's an absurd question meant to defray criticism. Of course Donald Trump is better than Clinton. Few celebrated more than I did when Clinton was vanquished. President Trump has done a lot of good and prevented the Progressive/Communist end-game plan....merely by winning....but he's not what he presented himself to be in the campaign....in fact he's a lot of what we fought against....and we now may have lost an important broadcast platform to hold him somewhat accountable. It should be noted that Alex Marlowe is still the editor-in-chief of the Breitbart News Network. Well have to wait and see on this also if it retains its 'critical of President Trump when called for' format.



NOTE: I'm reading over the new Steve Bannon biography for the second time....Bannon...Always The Rebel.... and hope to have a post on it shortly.
