Steve Bannon emerged Tuesday from four months in federal prison. He was tanned, supposedly “empowered,” and obviously eager to again help Donald Trump lie about election results if he loses.

But he presented himself on his War Room show and in a press conference Tuesday as a freedom fighter.

“If you’re not prepared to be thrown in prison by this weaponized justice system, then you’re not prepared to stand up and fight for your country,” Bannon said after serving his sentence at a low-security prison in Connecticut.

    This is why I think Trump supporters are all idiots.

    He’s been robbing them blind since the start, and they keep throwing money at him.

      We honestly have been trained to think they’re morons. By the supporters themselves.

        I once posted that Trump had run a lottery promising dinner with The President as the top prize and that no one had ever won face time with him.

        One of his MAGoos posted back that what he’d done was no different that other pols sending messages saying they personally wanted my backing.

        I told him that it was the difference between having a waitress smile at you and giving a stripper $5,000.00 for her mom’s operation.
