BREAKING: Bannon To Hold Alabama Rally For Roy Moore

On the heels of President Trump’s Huntsville rally for Sen. Luther Strange, Steve Bannon, former CEO of Trump’s campaign and former top strategist in the White House, announces that he will come to Alabama in support of Roy Moore.

Since President Trump took America by storm in 2015, Bannon was a driving force behind much of the strategy used to captivate the electorate last November. And what makes the recent announcement notable is that this is the first time Bannon has publicly engaged in a political race on the opposite side of the President.

Bannon left the White House last month, and his support for Moore seems to indicate a split in conservative factions. Trump’s presidential campaign was propelled by anti-establishment forces, that now seem to be aligning behind Moore, regardless of the President’s unwavering support for Strange.

On Friday, Moore and Strange exchanged blows in the only debate before the run-off. That was immediately followed by a rally where Sarah Palin and Seb Gorka urged Alabamians to drain the swamp by supporting Moore.

Breitbart News has been a major booster of Moore’s. However, it was unclear if Bannon would publicly side with someone opposite of the President. While he’s been a key link between Trump and his populist base, Bannon was vilified in the media. Saturday Night Live has depicted him as the Grim Reaper, and he was featured in Time Magazine beneath the headline “The Great Manipulator.”

The run-off is set to take place Tuesday, and many predict it to be very close. It will be interesting to see if Bannon’s support will resonate positively with Alabama voters.
