‘Trump is in Beast Mode… He’s Crushing the Opposition’: Steve Bannon [WATCH]

Steve Bannon described former President Donald Trump as operating in full force, tackling multiple policy fronts and leaving his opponents scrambling to respond.

Speaking on War Room, Bannon painted a picture of a highly active Trump, aggressively pushing his agenda on trade, geo-economics, foreign policy, and domestic issues.

“You’ve seen President Trump, we say in beast mode right now, right? This is Days of Thunder, and he’s dropping bombs, whether it’s trade, geo-economics, Greenland, Panama, the border, DEI, you just go on and on,” Bannon said.

“I can name 25 things that we’re not even talking about now. They’re all big because he’s in beast mode every day. Bang, bang, bang.”

Bannon emphasized that Trump’s approach is overwhelming the opposition, leaving them disorganized and unable to mount a coherent response. “It’s not just flood the zone. He’s crushing the opposition. They’re on MSNBC yammering, right?” Bannon said.

Even late-night comedy shows, he noted, are being forced to acknowledge Trump’s influence.

“Not just The Daily Show—last night, John Daly, a Jon Stewart, took on Chuck Schumer,” Bannon pointed out.

“I’m sitting there going, why are they? It’s great for us. They roll Schumer out. And he’s going, ‘We’re not going to fall for a Bannon flood-the-zone. We’re focused.’ Yeah, okay. And he’s sitting there going, they got to shut down. Schumer, it’s so bad because there is no opposition right now. They’re just not. They’re trying to get opposition.”

Bannon also turned his attention to USAID, a government agency that he argued plays a larger strategic role than its relatively modest budget might suggest.

He pointed to tech mogul Elon Musk’s perspective on the agency as evidence of its broader significance.

“Jamie Raskin, they ran over for this pathetic outside of USAID, because why? The engineering mind of Elon Musk said, ‘Hey, this is a node. That’s USAID.’ It’s not a ton of money in the grand scheme—it’s 50 billion a year. So it’s meaningful, but more important, it’s poison. It’s a CIA cutout,” Bannon said.

Bannon’s remarks highlight what he sees as Trump’s relentless drive to push forward policies that are reshaping both domestic and international landscapes, leaving critics struggling to counter his momentum.

With Trump in “beast mode,” as Bannon describes, the opposition appears fractured and ineffective, forced to react rather than lead.
