Conservatives, WSJ Blast Bannon For Roy Moore Loss: 'DUMP Steve Bannon'

By NICOLE LAFOND Published DECEMBER 13, 2017 8:22 AM

Republicans members of Congress and conservative media are united in blaming one person for their party’s loss in the deep red state of Alabama Tuesday night: Steve Bannon.

In a scathing editorial published late Tuesday evening, the Wall Street Journal ignited the revolt, declaring that “Bannon is for losers.”

“The Alabama result shows that Mr. Bannon cares less about conservative policy victories than he does personal king-making,” the editorial board wrote. “He wants to depose Mitch McConnell as Majority Leader even if it costs Republicans Senate control. GOP voters, take note: Mr. Bannon is for losers.”

Rep. Pete King (R-NY) lashed out on Twitter early Wednesday morning, encouraging his fellow Republicans to “DUMP Steve Bannon.”

Bannon is like that guy in the movie, after the woman dumps him, shows up at her front door the next day carrying a running chainsaw.

The scene from Fatal attraction still haunts me. At least they didn't kill of the dog or the kid.

You couldn't ask for a more uglier face to represent a party full of assholes who have no morals.
