Axios’ Jonathan Swan inadvertently revealed how clueless, out of touch, ignorant, and in over their heads some of his trusted White House sources were on Wednesday evening when he disclosed that many White House operatives have never heard of The American Prospect magazine.
Swan was reporting on the jaws that were apparently on the floor at the White House when operatives read White House Chief Strategist Steve Bannon’s “interview” with left-wing Prospect editor Robert Kuttner in which Bannon defended Trump and called out the media’s sensationalistic coverage of Charlottesville; aggressively called for the United States to confront China on trade to preserve its standing as the world’s superpower; revealed there was no good military solution on the Korean Peninsula; eviscerated globalists like Gary Cohn who have been working with The Swamp to stymie trade policies that would benefit American workers; and bashed “ethno-nationalist” white supremacists as “clowns” who needed to be “crushed.”
For White House operatives to not have known what The American Prospect was is beyond astonishing and shows how unqualified Swan’s sources are to fight for Trump’s agenda against the legacy media and Democrats or help convince Democrats to join Trump on issues like infrastructure, which is something Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) reportedly feared Trump would do at the start of his administration.
