Are these people just so fucking unintellectual and beaten dogs in the face of demographic trends, that they're so willing to sell their souls to the devil and abandon their principles? Because Bannon as a leading intellectual of the conservative movement is like the Pope making Richard Dawkins chair of the Doctrine of the Faith (aka the Inquisition).
The bastards need to get up and fight. You know what he is. You know where this leads. And you're still walking that path anyway?
