‘All Victory to MAGA!’ Defiant Bannon Vows Trump Landslide After Being Ordered to Jail

 

Steve Bannon

Steve Bannon spoke to the press on Thursday after a DC judge ordered him to report to prison on July 1st to begin serving his four-month sentence for contempt of Congress.

Bannon had managed to delay serving his sentence while he appealed the verdict, but finally, a judge has ruled that with all appeals exhausted the far-right podcast host and former Trump campaign manager must report to serve his time.

Bannon struck a defiant tone outside the courthouse, saying, “We’re going to go all the way to the Supreme Court if we have to.” While being heckled by a man calling him a “coup plotter,” Bannon continued:

But I want to say something specifically about the Justice Department. Merrick Garland, Lisa Monaco, the entire Justice Department. They’re not going to shut up, Trump. They’re not going to shut up. Navarro. They’re not going to shut up. Bannon. And they’re certainly not going to shut up. MAGA. If you look right here, you reporters in the two and a half or three years we’ve been here, look at the rise of MAGA. Look at the rise of Donald Trump. If the election was held today, according to Harry Enten over at CNN, President Trump would win in a landslide.

All of this besides the. Major legal issues that have to be addressed. All of this is about one thing. This is about shutting down the MAGA movement, shutting down grassroots conservatives, shutting down President Trump. Not only are we winning, we are going to prevail in every number, and every poll shows that there’s nothing that can shut me up and nothing that will shut me up. There’s not a prison, there’s not a prison, there’s not a prison built. There’s not a prison built or jail built that will ever shut me up. All victory to MAGA. We’re going to win this. We’re going to win at the Supreme Court.

And more importantly, we’re going to win on November 5th in an amazing landslide with the Senate, the House, and also Donald J. Trump back as president of the United States. Thank you very much.

“Lock him up!” yelled the heckler as Bannon was whisked away.

Bannon will soon be on trial in New York City over allegations he defrauded Trump supporters who donated to his charity to build the U.S.-Mexico border wall. Then President Donald Trump pardoned Bannon in the federal case related to the alleged fraud, which saw several of his associates convicted and jailed for the massive fraud.
