Why is MSNBC giving Steve Bannon a platform on two shows tonight (Hardball and Lawrence O'Donnell's)

to spout his and Trump's recycled America First bullshit agenda? Bannon's soften tone on Hardball makes me want to puke (on Chris Matthews) for giving him a platform to sell his bullshit propaganda.

Much like Erik Prince of Blackwater fame that was on CNN tonight. Ari Melber is tough and will call bullshit if it needs to be called

None of these psychos should be given airtime. What conservative even tunes in to MSNBC? I’m still angry at the MSM for giving Trump so much coverage before the primary and beyond.

Now we have Bannon, Alex Jones, Breitbart, etc as household names. It’s just so much bullshit.

Ari can handle him and even expose his fraudulent ideology. Bannon is desperate to get back in within Trump. Unfortunately for him he actually a few things tha were true- namely his statement that Sessions recusing himself was the worst political move in centuries.
