Steve Bannon Goes Nuclear on 'Truly Evil' and 'Racist' Elon Musk, Pledges 'To Take This Guy Down'

Source: Mediaite.com

Steve Bannon unloaded on Elon Musk, calling him a “truly evil guy” who must be run out of the MAGA movement. Musk spent more than a quarter of a million dollars to help return President-elect Donald Trump to the White House. The billionaire Tesla CEO and owner of X has been a fixture at Mar-a-Lago ever since, with some reports indicating Musk’s near-constant presence is wearing on Trump. “I will have Elon Musk run out of here by Inauguration Day,” Bannon, a former Trump White House adviser, told the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera in an interview published on Wednesday. The article was flagged on Saturday by Bannon’s former employer, Breitbart, which published excerpts in English.

“He is a truly evil guy, a very bad guy. I made it my personal thing to take this guy down,” Bannon said. “Before, because he put money in, I was prepared to tolerate it; I’m not prepared to tolerate it anymore.” Bannon again took issue with H-1B visas, which Musk supports. Those visas allow companies to sponsor skilled professionals from other countries to work in the United States. Critics say the program harms American workers because businesses use H-1Bs to bring in cheaper labor from other countries instead of hiring domestically. “This thing of the H-1B visas, it’s about the entire immigration system is gamed by the tech overlords, they use it to their advantage, the people are furious,” Bannon said.

In addition to Musk, Bannon blasted David Sacks and Peter Thiel, who also have roots in apartheid South Africa. “Peter Thiel, David Sacks, Elon Musk, are all white South Africans,” Bannon said. “He should go back to South Africa. Why do we have South Africans, the most racist people on earth, white South Africans, we have them making any comments at all on what goes on in the United States?” Bannon took particular umbrage at a reply Musk made to a tweet suggesting Americans are “retarded.” “That pretty much sums it up,” Musk wrote in a post last month that has since been deleted.

“He went out of his way to mock our movement as racist and retards, and he lost,” Bannon said. “We blew him out of the water. He won’t fight. He’s got the maturity of a little boy.” The former Trump adviser added that Musk’s “sole objective is to become a trillionaire.” “He will do anything to make sure that any one of his companies is protected or has a better deal or he makes more money,” Bannon said. “His aggregation of wealth, and then — through wealth — power: that’s what he’s focused on.” He also accused Musk of wanting to implement “techno-feudalism on a global scale. I don’t support that and we’ll fight it.”

I have to agree with Mr Ick on this one topic, musk & other tech companies use these visa holders to employ foreign workers at far lower wages, expect them to work long hours, knowing the employees have no choice. All at a cost to America workers.

And lots of issues, from wide spread selective ballot purges in Red states to bomb threats and evacuations in the most blue precincts in some swing states and partisan vote tabulating election officials in some if not many of the swing states. Something is very fishy with their narrow "win". Yes it is an indictment of how stupid many people are that it was close enough to steal.

Here's one who isn't:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glen_Retief (The article is not up to date, but it gives you a flavor of the danger of sweeping an entire ethnic group in the trash bin.) There are more - this one is just an acquaintance of mine.

Interestingly, while all three share ties to South African apartheid during their formative years - none of the three (Musk (English descent), Thiel (German descent), or Sacks) are Afrikaners (an ethnicity descended predominantly from Dutch settlers, whose language is Afrikans). And as far as I can tell, none were members of the Afrikaner National Party (if it is the party, rather than the ethnic group you are referring to - while all spent some portion of their childhood there, all left before they were adults).

So to the extent you are talking about Musk, Thiel, and Sacks - I agree they are evil incarnate and should not be allowed near our politics.

Musk spends a quarter of a billion dollars to buy Trump a presidency, and Bannon knows that it's just a drop in the bucket. Musk can afford to do that 100 times over.
The most ironic part is Bannon calling Musk racist.
Next time he calls someone a racist he should be looking in a mirror.

and no match for Musk, and won't dare take on Musk directly, so he has his despicable, creepy Street Rat go after Musk.......LOL

It may appear that Bannon is correct, etc.....but know there is some true underlying motive that benefits Trump........

I hope he's just the MAGA trash to accomplish this! He's not scared of Eloon's money at all.

108. Steve Bannon calling someone else racist? That's rich.

Of course both Bannon and Musk are racists. Bannon is just jealous of the access that Musk has to Trump.

116. It's quite an accomplishment to be called "truly evil" and "racist" by Steve Bannon.

It’s quite an accomplishment to be called “truly evil” and “racist” by Steve Bannon.

Bannon also said he has the maturity of a child. Fair point.

When your whole schtick is
“the forgotten man, those other people are the reason you are being left behind, the deep state, elites”, etc, etc,. Having the world’s richest man as the figure head, is not a good look”.

Not sure why they thought he was just going to buy a presidency then go quietly.

I’m interested to see how this plays out for the rest of the party. They are all salivating for Eloon’s cash, but they need MAGA to win. If A faction of MAGA is against Eloon, that might spell trouble.
