How Does Bannon Get By Calling Treason When He Was Part And Parcel To The Trump Administration?..... (Original Post) global1 Jan 2018 OP
I am wondering the same thing. femmocrat Jan 2018 #1
My guess is that Mueller wants Bannon dead to rights before he interviews him. A lot more leverage. 33taw Jan 2018 #6

It seems pretty obvious unless he's claiming only he and Trump were out of the loop. marble falls Jan 2018 #8

He said this to the author a while ago. It was a message to Mueller that he is ready to flip. tableturner Jan 2018 #12

When is he going to be called to testify? He has to know where all the skeletons are.

it appears their mantra has been and will always be...."hurry and point a finger before anyone realizes it's really about you"

In the mean time, he sets up the diversion that will also make him money while attempts to distance himself.

Bannon's trying to write a propaganda piece to cash in, completely aware that he was part of the traitorous conspiracy with the russkies to bring about the downfall of America. I hope he's exposed as the seditious criminal he is and rots in prison accordingly.

It seems he is quoted in someone else's book.

So your question is still valid with the added questions of doing it without profit motivation.

It seems he just wants to stir the pot and piss on anyone that he disagrees with him.

I wonder if he has lawyers because I doubt they would have greenlighted this.

Maybe even went to Mueller and offered to tell all if given immunity.
Then he'd write his book before it comes out in the press to cash in.
Too see the inevitable crackdown coming and join in instead of fighting would be the wise thing to do for any of these fools.

9. Bannon's Ego.

Bannon is a megalomaniac.
In his mind, it was his power that created a president. And now it will feed his ego to show he has the power to bring that president down.

Just like trump often uses, deny then claim others were responsible.

It is coming out in another person's book, therefore, Bannon made the comments a while ago. Maybe he has flipped since then. Who knows?
