“Bannon knew that people who were opposed to this policy would be enraged, and most of them would have Saturday and Sunday off from work, so they could get out there and they could protest and they could get angry,” Joshua Green of Bloomberg BusinessWeek says a senior Trump official told him.

An excerpt from “Bannon’s War,” coming to FRONTLINE May 23, 2017.

From Michael Kirk and the team behind “The Choice 2016” and “Divided States of America” comes an examination of Bannon’s fight to deliver on Trump’s promises, with a confrontational style based on his personal crusade to dramatically transform America.

“Bannon’s War” premieres Tues. May 23rd at 10 p.m. EST / 9 p.m. CST on PBS and online: http://to.pbs.org/2rfi939
