Steve Bannon says he warned drumpf of coronavirus in January

Last edited Fri Mar 27, 2020, 08:55 AM - Edit history (1)

In early President Donald days, then-White House strategist Steve Bannon took over like a jug of Lysol. His mantra? Clean, vacuum, disinfect the swamp. In quick time, however, Bannon soon mounted up and rode off into the sunset.

He and people in DC still communicate. He informed the president — in January — about this killer virus.

A) He knows China. B) Spent time in Wuhan. C) Has key sources. D) Recognized its government was concealing illness figures. E) No carbon was being produced. F) NASA satellite photos showed China’s industrial shutdown.

Bannon began shortwave radio podcast War Room — Pandemic — which the Web site translates into Mandarin and Cantonese. It’s broadcast on international radio networks, online at WarRoom.org, 11 a.m. daily on YouTube — 3.8 million daily downloads, 250 million listeners worldwide.

conspicuously silent on the covid19 outbreak, unlike so many others who have stepped up with funding and ideas to help be part of the solution.

where he rallies the nation together to fight coronavirus and win re-election overwhelmingly because of his great leadership.

Where Churchill forced 10’s of thousands of British soldiers into a Turkish meat grinder. When it was over they still had not taken the peninsula and 73,485 were dead.

Trump will be able to beat that body count handily before this is over.

Steve Bannon is an idiot who is trying to regain his relevance.

and his Nobel Prize in Literature, Churchill was generally abysmal from what I understand. But, people remember the WW2 leadership

Chinese specialists, medical and financial, contacted him for advice?

Fearing the entire system could come down, alarmed Chinese specialists, medical and financial, contacted him early. Medicines, computers, cellphone parts, much comes out of China. Talk began of starting some form of supply chain.

He should be held accountable along with Trump for the poor government response.
