Trump ally calls to deploy US Army at voting sites to 'nationalize the election'

By David Edwards
Published February 4, 2026 12:34 PM ET

MAGA influencer Steve Bannon called on President Donald Trump to "nationalize" elections by deploying the U.S. Army to voting locations.

During an angry Wednesday rant about Trump's decision to pull Homeland Security agents out of Minneapolis, Bannon argued that the administration should provide "zero" cooperation with cities in blue states.

"All of them got to go," he said of immigrants. "And President Trump has to nationalize the election."

Democrats should consider this a certainty.

Oops, guess not.

Whatever happened to the Republican Party's public reputation for "morals", "ethics", "honesty", and abiding with the law?

Oh wait. Bannon is a Libertarian Asshole who wants to deconstruct the Constitution.

So, why is he allowed to hang around Republicans and the Republican Party leadership again?

Everything Bannon touches gets covered with slime and shit...and everyone should have known that since he was kicked off the Biodome II project for trying to take over that project in the 90's.
