With Steve Bannon’s recent indictment making waves across the nation, Donald Trump’s former personal attorney and self-described “fixer,” Michael Cohen, took aim at the ex-president’s former White House Chief Strategist, ultimately accusing Bannon of being “racist to the core,” and not actually all that fond of Trump.
Cohen’s bombshell accusations came during a recent appearance on the Hot Mics podcast with host Maria Cardona.
“So Steve Bannon is a really interesting guy,” Cohen stated during the show. “Steve is really not who you think that he is. People say he seems like a nice quiet guy. In fact, Steve Bannon is a fucking racist to the core. He’s no different than Steve Miller. He is a fucking maniac to the Nth degree.”
The former Trump “fixer” went on to heap his praises on Biden administration Attorney General Merrick Garland for officially charging Bannon with two counts of contempt of Congress for his refusal to comply with subpoenas from the House Select Committee that’s currently investigating the January 6th Capitol insurrection.

“Look, he’s not the leader,” Cohen, who’s suffered his own legal woes due to his association with the ex-president, went on to add. “His leader is Donald Trump. But what does he really think about Donald Trump? The question that a lot of people don’t get into.”
The former personal attorney to Donald Trump then dropped this little bombshell: “He thinks Donald is an idiot. Alright?”
I don’t know about you, but I’m beginning to sense a trend among these people who have devoted their loyalty to Donald Trump — most of them don’t even like him. They know he’s a garbage human being. They’re just also garbage human beings, and ultimately, they just want someone in charge that allows them to be trash without fear of persecution.
