America's Great Divide: Steve Bannon (second interview) | FRONTLINE 

Please tell your audience when this interview was conducted. Context matters.

@@mrmatzo The date is on it!

@@estelledavis4542 Now I see it: "Bannon's candid interview was conducted with FRONTLINE on September 19, 2019." I am almost certain that this vital piece of information was not available when I wrote the comment, but I could be wrong.

Although I respect PBS, I think that maybe it was a mistake to give Steve Bannon a platform.

@@MrSteniorod and, THAT is soooo magnanimous of you, to SHARE your reservation among we hoi polloi.

Exactly!!!

he was probably involved in jan 6 alas

hes in jail...

@@jkb1603 I guess you didn’t pay attention to the time stamp.

Would you, huh? Are you OK? From a psychological standpoint? Are you?😳🤦

THIS is how interviews are supposed to be, ask your questions and let the person explain their case, leave your bias and activism at the door. Unfortunately these days many journalists have forgotten this and they go into interviews with an agenda of what they want to hear and steer the interviews in their viewers “interests”.

he has a herpes stain yo

@@smitty_mittenz So did your last boyfriend and that didn’t stop you

Just to put it as it is Trump said of Bannon firing him " he loses his mind"

I listen to his podcast everyday. He is so inspiring.

@@ashwanikjha1099 Yeah i also always listen to wife-beaters everyday and get soooo inspired by their wisdom lol

@@jean-lucpicard581 and your point is? why are you even here?

​@@amc6508It's a decoy account. Probably a canned horse meat stew -eating Russian troll.

As Rick Wilson Bannon can be an open and honest person but I prefer Steve Schmidt point of view

I listen to his podcast everyday. He is so inspiring.

Social media is the poison of the world

Me as well. I’m a left leaning populist and all I heard was that he was a racist. I see now he’s a smart guy with interesting ideas. Populists on both sides need to come together a work together, make compromises but also work with each groups hard line issues

Okay...but he ran Brietbart and wanted to block Obama.

Very clear and to the point, thank you Steve...

First off, in modern USA there are no serfs. The little guy, as you call them, is an underpaid worker struggling to make a living. Decrease the powers of the administrative state; sure lets let more Boeing Max 7's crash and kill people. As long as Boeing is making a fortune and the shareholders are happy, who cares. Not you. Reducing regulations and the regulatory powers of the govt. will only benefit the ruling class and there political yes men. There is no reason why Populist Socialism can't work to benefit all the people. If you can dream it you can have it. Look what mankind had done when large groups of people work together.

@@mikewebber1085 I agree with you more than the first fellow, but populism is essentially telling people what they want to hear without regard to actual truth; always a road to disaster.

MW Someone was recently sentenced to 16 years in jail for burning a rag, because the rag was a rainbow flag. That is leftist government: arbitrary, trendy, conformist, and sadistic.

@@sanniepstein4835 Ames, Iowa, police arrested Martinez in the early hours of June 11, after police said he had caused a disturbance at a local bar and threatened to burn down the establishment, before returning with an LGBT rainbow flag he stole from the Ames United Church of Christ, and setting fire to it outside the bar. Martinez admitted to his crimes in an interview with KCCI, saying he was motivated by an antipathy towards homosexuality and that he had “burned down their pride, plain and simple.” Despite his on-screen confession, Martinez pleaded not guilty to three charges, the Story County Attorney’s Office told Snopes: Third-degree arson, an aggravated misdemeanor which typically carries a maximum sentence of two years in prison; third-degree harassment, a simple misdemeanor; and reckless use of fire or explosives, a serious misdemeanor that typically carries a maximum prison sentence of one year. Martinez had two previous felony convictions, meaning that under Iowa law, he was sentenced as an “habitual offender.” It was this legal provision, triggered by the hate crime charge, that multiplied his prison sentence to 15 years. If Martinez’ act of arson had not constituted a hate crime, he would have faced a maximum sentence of two years in prison. With the hate crime enhancement, he would ordinarily have faced a maximum sentence of five years in prison. It was only because of his status as a habitual offender, triggered by the hate crime enhancement, that he faced a maximum sentence of 15 years, which the judge imposed.

So the same crime committed against, say, straight 'white' men would have been considered far less serious.

They sure are!

Frontline is leftist garbage but this is one of their first interviews that wasn't an activist interview. They must be listening to the people.

@@taylorx2 Think they are truly concerned about keeping their funding is why.

I listen to his podcast everyday. He is so inspiring.

@@taylorx2 just curious...which Frontline topic was leftist?

Makes me want to start asking Bannon if he would consider running for office in 2024

@@sandrajohnson6005 hé would be a great choice i absolutely agree with you, im all for a conservative philosophy and pragmatic problem solving but poeple cant get past the rhetoric ... but great choice nonetheless

@@sandrajohnson6005 Eric Trump is also feeling his way in slowly you can tell he likes the fight also...

I worked 35 years in Telecommunication industry too for 5 different companies. I don’t ever expect job for life, couldn’t handle it. I like to change company now and again, need new meet new people, new technology, new products.

He 's got my vote too..

Great comment! I agree.

Msm would eat their own legs if they were ratings.

Don't hold your breath.

Yeah, whoever permitted these interviews is probably blackballed at NPR/CNN/NYTs.

FRONTLINE rocks. The last bastion of actual journalism remaining in traditional media. Bannon rocks. The last adult in the room. These uncut interviews would be game-changers IF the sheeples would take an hour to listen.

What does he do? I really don't know. Does he do podcasts or have a channel? Where does he live? Was he around for 6th Jan, 2021?

​@@ardentynekent2099I guess you didn't listen.

Preach that truth man 👍👍

President Trump firing Bannon said "He loses his mind."

Mireille Lebeau the Trump administration has gone to shit since Bannon left

Smartest guy? He'd last 10 seconds with a Philosopher!

Including jail cells

take back our country, elect all new people into congress

I listen to his podcast everyday. He is so inspiring.

He’s right

Steven K Bannon is old school a True American. Make and Keep America FIRST

If you like this, you may enjoy the debates out of the UK. Actual intellectuals debate consequential issues from antiquity to the present. They have time limits and take questions from the audience in real time. I think the best are from "Intelligence Squared" and "Oxford Circle." They're serious philosophers and intellectuals, authors in search of truth. Excellent.

Bannon is a crook! They should all be in jail!

@@laurasubrismangham4486 Why don't you have Mueller look into it? Oh wait...

Read Bannon’s life biography. He has a record resume’ you will be amazed with his life’s work!

@@bweaver760 Absolutely!

Perez - Because they’re corrupt activist idiots with an agenda?

Right. I did not understand where the strategy of "alternate facts" came from previously.

Robert McCutcheon Unfortunately warring amongst ourselves has been more destructive than helpful.

@@wicket3641 what a liar

Yes but this interview is old. What is PBS doing now? That's an honest question. I quit watching legacy media. During the last presidential election. When I saw how bias and anti American they all are. And I was disgusted by their coverage of the "mostly peaceful" riots.

Bannon, always the smartest guy in the room.

There are history books, actually.

I agree, Public Radio is partially government funded, yet seems to only provide a liberal viewpoint. Should be more balanced. By the way, KPBS ran the Covington Catholic story and the Jussie Smollet stories vigorously, but I never heard a retraction. It just dropped of the news stream.

No they had to throw in few from the right, the entire show is a hit piece on Trump... Almost all interviews were Trash who work for Washington Post and NY TIMES showing them as authors Of books not democratic operatives of media

@@juanvaldez3515 Oh OK - I caught this as I look for any interviews with Steve Bannon - My question is why he was dropped from the White House team

@@SJQuirke No idea many shakeups My guess "Jarvanka" Jared and Ivanka removed many people from inside

@Gonzo6389 All-caps means you must be a stable and reasonable person worth listening to.

Curious how you suffered in anyway under Trump...not what your ideals of utopia should be , but real life suffering?

Congrats for keeping an open mind, most people dont go to that extent...

if media tells you to write somebody off, you can bet your life on it that the exact opposite is true and that you must write media off. same principle goes for Trump also. Establishment media will never stop lying about people who threaten their absolute power

Gee Mr. Seltz .. A capital t 'tad' smarter .?. Curious to know how you developed TDS initially .?. If you educate yourself as to the FACTS before forming outrageous opinions based on another's TRUTHS , you may avoid posting public statements that exemplify your ignorance and/or stupidity .!. MGB and keep us all

Jake Wright You might want to reconsider CA......unless you have a whole lot of $$$$ You don’t need.

Rosie R ...and if he likes communism as well.

@@rosier5428 good point

@@wwrite Oh shut up. California doesn't have communism.

I'll sponsor you lol

LOOOOVE Chuck Missler!!! --- MRS Neil Lindsay

I do believe that Steve would really enjoy listening to Chuck Missler also. We should left him up in prayer for his Salvation. You can still get Chuck online. I was blessed with sitting under Chuck Missler at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa California back in the 80's to this day I always listen to him very anointed and gifted teacher.

What a transparently bullshit comment

3. Glad ur starting to wake up.

i bet you anything he has a male undershirt (wife beater) under those 3 shirts

4 shirts

Are you serious?? They are taking away Free Speech and they don’t want us to know the truth;; I pray Trump has all these guys put in Jail sounds like Nancy will be arrested?? It’s all on the Pete Santilli show. I am praying for Trump and Truth. 🙏🇨🇦💕

It's no coincidence that the good people leave replaced by bad people or in the case of Bolton, replaced by someone just as bad.

Bannon left on his own actually as he could do more from the outside than being on the inside.

You know he was being sarcastic about making her cry right? He was trolling the media.

He said he wanted out

@@sunshinepatsoph4219 Do you really trust political consultants?

You're in a cult.

The problem isn't the people making minimum wage but the government stealing from the person making $25/hr.

Daniel you realize minimum wage and what most people make are not the same?

He was quoting Elizabeth Warren.

EXACTLY

I'm kinda sick of our government's constant obsession with Iran.

The SEC is in place to protect Wall Street, just as HR is in place to protect the business, not the employee.

Why? He was right... Trump spent to much time on the suburbs... Less time on the working class
