Donald Trump’s former top adviser Steve Bannon has told the BBC he does not fear going to prison or watching the former president’s 2024 campaign from behind bars.
After being convicted of contempt of Congress, the man who was seen as the power behind the scenes in the White House at the start of Trump’s presidential term in 2017 will report to a federal prison in Connecticut on Monday.
…..
“I’ve served my country now for the last 10 or so years focusing on this,” he said in an interview, referring to politics and the Make America Great Again (Maga) movement. “If I have to do it in a prison, I do it in a prison – it makes no difference at all.”
…..
After that, his show – described as a “military command centre for Maga” – will remain on the air in his absence. He has arranged for other hosts to present the War Room along with all his regular contributors.
Though he will not be able to lead them from prison, he said that this “Maga army” that “can’t and won’t stop until final victory” will easily continue on its mission.
After all, he said, the populist Maga movement is greater than him – and even Donald Trump. According to him, it does not matter who delivers its message.
