Commentary Podcast: Bannonism Goes Bust

Published: Jan. 4, 2018, 6:36 p.m.

In the second COMMENTARY Magazine podcast of the week, the hosts discuss Steve Bannon by the avatar of his movement: Donald Trump. Clearly, the damaging quotes Bannon provided to the journalist Michael Wolff are worth taking seriously, even if the rest of the book is dubious. Finally, the hosts dive into the evolution of the Trump administration from populism to conventional Republicanism, and how that impacts the immediate future. Due to technical difficulties, the audio of this podcast is slightly muffled. Please be forgiving when listening. Thank you.
