McCollum calls Bannon appointment proof of Trump’s ugly direction

The next president will be an unprincipled bully with an extremely thin skin who, even after his election, continues to tweet in the voice of a petulant know-it-all who doesn’t think his brilliant ideas are taken seriously enough by the rest of the world.

On Wednesday, November 16, 2016, more than 50 faith-based and human rights organizations penned an open letter condemning president-elect Donald Trump’s chief strategist appointment of alt-right leader Stephen Bannon.

Bannon’s appointment does not require confirmation by the U.S. Senate.

“We are a nation in desperate need of some kind of healing”, Cleaver said in an interview. Some of the letter’s recipients included American Bankers Association President and Chief Executive Rob Nichols and Independent Community Bankers of America President and Chief Executive Camden Fine.

Steve Bannon helped Republican Donald Trump secure a resounding presidential victory November 8 while serving as the billionaire’s campaign chief, but the feat came with a cost to his reputation.

Both eras cited by Bannon included large increases in the national debt, which Trump campaigned against. Cory Booker and Robert Menendez (D-N.J.), every Democrat in the state’s congressional delegation is now on record as opposing the appointment of Bannon, whose Breitbart website is popular with white supremacists.

Trump named Stephen Bannon as his chief strategist earlier this week. Mr. Bannon’s appointment sends the wrong message to people who have engaged in those types of activities, indicating that they will not only be tolerated, but endorsed by your Administration.

Far-right white nationalist Mr Bannon was previously appointed as CEO of Mr Trump’s presidential campaign in August. It’s often said “You are what you read” and this site has about 17 million viewers.

Democratic Rep. -elect Pramila Jayapal, who will replace Rep. Jim McDermott in January, called Bannon “a known racist” and said his elevation as a close aide to Trump is “just terrifying”. At the same time, the American Nazi Party, the Ku Klux Klan and former KKK leader David Duke praised Trump’s pick of Bannon. “The American people voted”, he said.

Over 150 members of Congress, mostly Democrats, have called on Trump to remove Bannon from his position.

“I knew that she couldn’t close”, he said.

The Democrats’ letter said the choice “undermines unity”, but Paul suggested Bannon is becoming a scapegoat for the left.
