The "more student parts" of "the business community"?  Could I get that in English, please?

Quote:He makes alliances with all the alt-right elements, but he claims limited interest in them.

Equivocation.  The phrase "alt-right" had/has more than one meaning, particularly at the time he said it.

Quote:He said he wanted to trigger a final confligration that will destroy the current system, but he shows no interest in a race war.  That reads $$$$$ to me

False dichotomy.  Either he wants a race war or he's only interested in money?  Really?  Those are the only two possible motivations?

Also, did you type this last post with mittens on or something?

Posting on a tablet with aggressive spell check leads to the mess above.  I've tried to fix it.  Let's see how it arrives on the forum.

Now your comments:

• If you want an "army" of blindly-dedicated soldiers, why not select from what's already available?  What's available is mostly on the fringe.  I have no doubt that Bannon is a nationalist -- perhaps a hyper-nationalist.  I just don't see the evidence that he's directly aligned with the neo-Nazis or race-crusaders.  On the other hand, they're already up for the fight.  I agree I'm reading between the lines a bit.
  
• So let's look at Bannon.  He took a turn through Goldman Sachs, and his only complaint was greed.  That reads right out of Atlas Shrugged.  His goal reads like the end of the book.  Draw your own conclusions.
