I have seen several post stating that Bannon is a Leninist. He wants to destroy the establishment as Lenin and the Bolsheviks destroyed the old Russian establishment in the Russian civil war. Something else that Lenin and the Soviets did was to enforce communist ideology with the use of political and people's commisars in military and government organizations.
He is setting himself up as the political enforcer (commisar) on the NSC. All of the decisions made by the NSC (with Bannon on it) will have the appropriate political spin to enhance and support his and Trump's world view and agenda. This is a very dangerous development.
I am not sure how but we must get Bannon off of the NSC.

(31,121 posts)He wants a white, christian nation with men in charge of everything and everybody with no rights or only the rights he decides on.
He actually wants this and Trump actually does as well.
What we are doing about it I dont know.

(42,610 posts)be in a meeting like that all by himself. Same reason Ivanka sat in on the meeting with the Japanese prime minister. There is absolutely no filter on what comes out of Trump's mouth, and someone has to be there to obsequiously cut him off or lead him back on to a topic.

(63,922 posts)he wants to see a war between Christians and Muslims.
So does Pence, they want to bring on the end times.
They want to see a white nationalist country.
I will also add this article or site too. It could be a doomsday site.
