Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon penned a message of advice to the “Make America Great Again” movement — a nod to former President Trump’s 2016 campaign motto — ahead of Election Day, writing from Danbury Prison in Connecticut that “the moment is now on our side.”
“[Vice President] Harris has peaked,” Bannon wrote in an op-ed published Friday by The National Pulse. “The momentum is now on our side, and this is the time to capitalize on it.”
If the Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement focuses all of its efforts on a massive get-out-the-vote and ballot-chasing effort in the crucial days and weeks until November 5th, we will win and win big,” he added, with the election now less than six weeks away.
Bannon is expected to be released from prison Oct. 29, after beginning to serve a four-month sentence earlier in the summer. He was found guilty on two counts of contempt of Congress in 2022 after failing to appear before the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, and refusing to turn over documents.
In the letter, he went on to paint a picture of a failing Harris campaign.
“To date, the Harris campaign has offered no real solutions to the struggles Americans face,” he wrote, referencing inflation, crime rates and “weakened” national security.
These topics can’t be masked by feel-good phrases, celebrity endorsements, or as many Oprah interviews as you want,” Bannon added.
The Trump ally said that “Americans are decisively rejecting the phony “politics of joy” and the empty promises that define the Harris campaign,” referencing polls published by The National Pulse showing immigration as a top issue this election cycle and Trump leading President Biden before his decision to exit the race and endorse the vice president.
Bannon ended the letter by saying, “Victory is at hand.”
