And that is not surprising since thinking is not his long suit to begin with.  But this will require a "discovery" process which will be a horror show.... if he presses forward with it.  The WLB is famous for threatening lawsuits and never following through.

That First Amendment is always a problem to tyrants!

Pops some popcorn.

We have a smilie for that.

I'd buy the book just to support the 1st Amendment, but it's disgusting political porn about an entity that I can't stand to look at or listen to for more than a minute or so.

Just another Trumpian bluff, courtesy of a group of lawyers who have a client stupid enough to approve their inflated fees. As usual, nothing will come of this. There's no fucking way they are going to proceed, if that would result in Trump and his family being deposed.

And it would.

I am going to guess most who have posted so far, 2 weeks ago couldn't give a flying F about what Bannon has to say.  I could go as far as to say, most of you would have considered anything Bannon had to say would be the rantings of a mentally ill alcoholic.  I would also wager iyho, anything breitbart has to say must be wrong cuz, well its breitbart.

And now it is different.  Because it fits into your personal view of trump.

The first thing that went through my mind was NDA.  I remember hearing many years ago ALL Trump employees sign such a papers and personally I would not work for such an employer.  But Bannon did work for such an employer.  Does this mean he didn't spout off?  Nope.  But where is the proof?  From an author who for years has been questioned on accuracy:

Quote:Wolff says he has notes and e-mail that back him up, but refuses to release them.

Bannon is a disgruntled former employee with character issues.  I would not put a lot of stock in any words attributed to him now or before, just because its convenient for a narrative I may want to push forward.

Anything that will contribute to rendering trump like a harpooned whale on a factory ship is fine by me.

 I suppose that applies to the other 199 people that Wolff interviewed too, huh?

Personally, I love it when rats turn on each other.  Which rat pack are you in?

Really?  Not for me.  I like the idea that every 2-4 years the voters themselves get to decide these things.  I may not like the outcome, but I only have to live with it for 2 - 4 years.

There were people in the USA who thought the bullet in Lincolns head was a part of the Anything.  Greater good and all...  And while I am sure you would say "I dont mean that far", your example of a dead whale for the corporations [factory ship] makes me wonder if you actually have sat back and wondered exactly what 'the greater good' really is.

In my not so humble opinion, being able to make these mistakes freely is the greater good.
