    Populist strategist and Breitbart news criticize Trump's Afghanistan policy

    Trump’s address was a first, big test of what Breitbart will do now that Stephen Bannon, the former White House chief strategist, has returned to run the site

    Minutes after President Donald Trump concluded his Afghanistan policy speech Monday night, the conservative site Breitbart news took an aggressive, critical approach to the address and Trump’s new policy. A banner headline blasted the president’s decision to extend the U.S. military commitment in Afghanistan as a “flip-flop” that “reverses course.”

    “The media is the opposition party”, claims Trump's chief strategist

    “They don’t understand this country. They still do not understand why Donald Trump is the president of the United States,” Bannon told The Times.

    Steve Bannon, President Donald Trump's chief White House strategist, went on a tirade against the media during an interview with The New York Times. Bannon, who spearheaded the far-right website Breitbart News until he took over as Trump's campaign CEO in August, lambasted the press and said it had been “humiliated” by the results of the 2016 election.
