    @Doctor-Phibes said in Steve Bannon charged with fraud over wall fundraising:

    You lost the argument about Trump draining the swamp, so you deflect onto the other guy.

    Whether or not Donald Trump has drained the swamp has nothing to do with Joe Biden.

    He hired Steve Bannon, a guy who even looks like a freaking troll, and then he fires him when he realises he's a complete twat, and this is swamp draining?

    Under Trump, the Federal workforce has only risen a little over 0.2%, one of the slowest increases in many years. Some departments have less people now, than when he took office. Foggy Bottom has lost over 2000 employees. The VA has had multiple changes. Education has lost employees. Most of the employee gains have been in the SBA.

    Some of the record is mixed. Part of the reason the Russian Hoax gained the traction it did, was because Trump didn't replace some people as fast as he could have. Also, as many have learned before him, sometimes you need bureaucrats to deal with bureaucrats.

    Now, please defend anything Biden has ever done to help drain the swamp.

    So, he's not drained the swamp at all.

    As far as Biden goes, and this election goes, you know when you watch a really great sporting event, and it's so, so close, and both sides have given their all, and fought with honour and distinction, in the most sportsmanlike way possible, and you find yourself thinking 'I wish both sides could win!' - obviously, it's not possible, but still, it's a dream.

    In this case, I wish both sides could lose.

      He has partially drained the Swamp. He has not been totally successful in personnel, but he has made progress. He has made more progress in regulations.

      Again, defend Biden, which I notice you are not doing.

        I keep saying I'm not defending Biden, and don't support Biden, and you keep asking me to defend Biden, and I keep saying I'm not defending Biden.

            Bannon's actually over-achieved. He wanted a wall - he's going to get four!

              Anyone know if he’s still scheduled to speak at the convention Tuesday? Or have they replaced him with Roger Stone or the demon semen doctor?

                I know it’s a cliché to talk about the Trump years as a series of TV seasons, each wackier than the next. But having Steve Bannon, Super Patriot®, Bane of the Chinese™, Keeper of the MAGA Faith, and Watcher of the Wall, arrested on a Chinese billionaire’s superyacht for bilking money from people who actually believed his GoFundMe site to build the border wall was on the up-and-up was just too good.

                But to have him arrested by the U.S. Postal Inspection Service at the precise moment the country is freaking out over Trump’s war—or “war” —on the Post Office? Chef’s kiss. Someone deserves an Emmy.

                  I think Biden is taking his place.

                  Poor sod, he'll think he's still at the DNC...

                                    Bannon seemed smarter than this. It’s amazing how amateurish all this was. Read the indictment. It quotes the incriminating texts with all the ‘LOLs’ and everything.

                                      @jon-nyc said in Steve Bannon charged with fraud over wall fundraising:

                                      I was wrong though, this ended really well. With a Bannon perp walk.

                                        I'm surprised too that it was so blatant and clumsy.

                                        Education is extremely important.

                                          Maybe he's got personal demons of some sort. That other Breitbart douchebag who used to be held up as some kind of genius lost his livelihood from making inappropriate and rather predictable remarks about young boys.

                                          I was only joking
