Steve Bannon is even dumber than we thought

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

How stupid do you have to be to get pardoned and then get yourself arrested again that SAME YEAR? I don’t ever want to hear again about how Steve Bannon is some kind of evil genius. The guy’s a complete idiot.

Let’s just stop with all these “Steve Bannon WANTS to go to prison because it’s part of his secret evil genius plan to magically win” takes. First of all, that’s laugh out loud silly. And if he really wanted to go to prison, he wouldn’t have accepted his fairly recent pardon.

The past three weeks have been a case study in pundit grandstanding. They all knew the DOJ would indict Bannon. They just wanted to score retweets and such by playing on your worst fears, while trying to make themselves look tougher than Merrick Garland. Don’t fall for it next time.
