Bannon`s War Room

Episode 4902: Election Night Tee Up; Injustice Meltdown

05 Nov 2025

Transcription

Chapter 1: What insights are shared about the upcoming election night?

0.031 - 20.233 Steve Bannon

I told the donors, you know, when we basically called he was going to win the primary, and this guy was at... And Alex DeGrasse, who's Stefanik's guy, told me back in February, when I think this guy was at 2% in the Democratic primary, that this guy was going to be the guy because the Working Family Party and the DSA have a massive ground game. They've essentially copied...

0

20.213 - 23.301 Steve Bannon

what the Trump movement, what the MAGA movement did.

0

23.341 - 28.152 Eric Bolling

Or ACORN, Obama, ACORN. It seems a little like that.

0

28.172 - 47.408 Steve Bannon

You have to get low-propensity voters. And they've gone out and they've canvassed and they've gotten low-propensity voters. They're focused on foreign-born voters. And here's what you got. And so I think he's got to go through a thorough review quickly, denaturalizing, get Eric Adams and put him on a plane and send him to Uganda.

0

47.829 - 56.7 Steve Bannon

And I think the president tomorrow ought to have the Justice Department go into California and the federal court and talk about the unconstitutionality of what they did in California.

56.68 - 70.495 Eric Bolling

Prop 50, yeah, that looks like it's going to fly through, too. And then you've got a nut job in Spanberger who can't say that Jay Jones was wrong for calling for the murder of his – Steve, it's scary.

70.515 - 90.997 Steve Bannon

It's scary how fast the country is turning. It's almost like they don't know who's president right now. There's a common – Bowling, there's a common theme to this. The Republican establishment, people have to understand, they are just – they think Trump's a passing summer storm. Look at Dick Cheney. We played today. My producer founded the Dick Cheney ads, you know, anti-Trump ads.

91.037 - 104.391 Steve Bannon

The Republican establishment hates Trump. They've had no engagement in Trump in any of these elections. He wasn't engaged in New Jersey. He's not engaged in the Commonwealth of Virginia. He's not engaged in New York City. He's not engaged in California. Why? It's always the same mantra.

Chapter 2: How are low-propensity voters influencing election outcomes?

105.031 - 121.592 Steve Bannon

Trump, they use Trump to get, you know, to draw voters, to build momentum. Well, they've got momentum. They use Trump anyway. So you might as well get him out and get engaged. He just won the greatest political comeback in American history. If President Trump had been engaged on this from the beginning, particularly in California, I think there'd be a very different outcome.

0

122.153 - 132.688 Steve Bannon

But you could get blown out by 10, 20 points in California tonight. That thing could be over the moment the polls close. All four of the important ones, it's not going to be close.

0

132.668 - 136.316 Eric Bolling

close race of those four. That's the scariest part, Steve.

0

136.336 - 155.476 Steve Bannon

You know, we always talk about is... Even the financial guys, Apple and whatnot, are they just saying they're going to come bring manufacturing back here and just kind of hold their breath until, you know, 2029 when there's someone else in office and say, you know... I pledged it. I didn't really do it. Hang on. Stop. Stop. 2029 and there's what?

0

155.956 - 171.763 Steve Bannon

You clearly don't watch the show that follows you, Trump 28. And I'm 100% serious about it. Look at it tonight. Show me what you got. You got nothing. You know what you got? You got Trump. You got a guy that started the process of saving this country when all of our backs were against the wall.

171.863 - 172.364 Eric Bolling

I'll bite.

172.444 - 181.401 Steve Bannon

I'll bite, Bannon. I'm going to bite on Bannon's bait right now if that's— This should be a segment. I'll bite Ben's bait. Don't take that the wrong way.

182.463 - 195.788 Eric Bolling

So Trump, the way he has to do it, he just has to run. He has to say, I'm just going to run and win, right? It can't be sanctions. It can't be courts. You just run and let Supreme Court decide.

195.909 - 220.725 Steve Bannon

Eric Bolling comes up. Hey, I talked to a top constitutional lawyer. He told me point blank, quote, you could drive a Mack truck through the 22nd Amendment. You see all these things. They got all the stuff that stopped Trump on the execution of the maximization strategy of his Article II powers. And what, they've lost 20 cases at the Supreme Court?

Chapter 3: What criticisms are made about the Republican establishment's strategy?

226.802 - 235.727 Steve Bannon

Right. Reordering the entire world's commercial system. We'll find out about that. But so far, the Roberts court has just said that's politics. It's not law. You guys figure it out.

0

235.707 - 253.395 Eric Bolling

You have the phone. You have the phone to the boss. I will tell you something. Tell him those $300, $400 billion he's collected in tariffs. Take that. Use that for the snap. Put that into the most needy people. Pay the military. And he takes that card away from the Democrats. Slam dunk midterm elections.

0

254.827 - 277.856 Steve Bannon

I think right now, you know, if the SNAP program, all the illegal aliens were off it, all the deadbeats were off it, all the scam artists were off it, if we got actually even a mini audit right now and people that really needed and deserve it, I could agree with you. Other than that, you can't bend to the Democrats. They're going to keep throwing something else up at you.

0

277.876 - 297.554 Steve Bannon

I just think we need Trump and we need harder Trump. I think the best solution we've had in this country, Eric, is every time we get back and Trump's trying to modulate or people around him have said, you've got to reach out to guys. Hey, how about this? Suck on this. Give them Trump and MAGA. Trumpism. Full unvarnished. Let's roll.

0

297.954 - 317.318 Steve Bannon

You're seeing tonight, you're going to see tonight when they all talk to him out of getting involved and all the campaigns in those states, you know, Winston Sears and Youngkin couldn't be bothered. They couldn't be bothered for four years to implement any MAGA programs. They couldn't be bothered to have Trump down there. They couldn't be bothered when Trump really delivered the victory.

317.298 - 332.928 Steve Bannon

when John Fredericks and MAGA turned out in 2021, historic proportions, all because this show and John Fredericks and others got them out there. They couldn't be bothered to thank Trump for doing that. And Sirius was the worst. She's a never-Trumper from way back.

333.549 - 334.831 Eric Bolling

Right? You couldn't be bothered.

334.851 - 355.531 Steve Bannon

So what you're going to get tonight is you're going to get to the Republican Party without Trump. That's what you're going to see tonight. And people think that you're going to get these low-propensity, low-information voters out there without Trump. You're kidding yourselves. It's not going to happen. Now, hopefully, if people... Ban him for president. Ban him for president.

Chapter 4: How is Trump's engagement viewed in relation to election results?

355.631 - 370.76 Steve Bannon

Cliff Maloney says we have a record turnout. I think it's 290,000 to 300,000 that Jack's got to win the margin. Sears is the same. So everybody should go out and vote. Everybody should get there. And we'll see what happens. You know, MAGA is great when they represent.

0

371.301 - 387.478 Steve Bannon

But right now, when you hear about anecdotal what's happening during the day, you see the polling, you see the amount of money Democrats are putting in because Trump's not engaged. You're going to get what you get. You know what you get by the progressive Democrats in a feckless Republican Party, a gutless Republican Party in New York City? You know what you get?

0

387.899 - 411.257 Steve Bannon

You get a Marxist jihadist as your mayor. I want you to just—Bowling, you were there. 24 years after 9-11. And Andy Ogles, you know, because Andy Ogles, I love him. He's a little bit on the war room crazy side. He put up today the videos of the jets, of the weapons flying into the World Trade Center. He put it up there.

0

Chapter 5: What are the implications of California's election dynamics?

412.038 - 433.378 Steve Bannon

So 24 years after that, in memory of all those heroes that died at the World Financial Center, At the World Trade Center and all the heroes in the police department, the fire department that died. Here's what you got. A guy that's been here six years, a Ugandan citizen that we know nothing about in the big talk.

0

433.398 - 439.145 Steve Bannon

Mainstream media has not done anything, anything at all about about looking into it, sir.

0

439.286 - 440.447 Eric Bolling

You're on it. You're on it.

0

440.487 - 461.568 Steve Bannon

Steve Bannon, appreciate your time. Sorry I ate into your show, but have a great show. And I love this. Let's do it again sometime, my friend. We may track you down tonight, Bowling, and get your After Mondami's results coming to New York City. I'm around for Bannon any time. I'm going to be your campaign manager when you run for president. No, no, no. Hey, Trump 2028.

0

Chapter 6: How do recent voter turnout trends affect party strategies?

462.289 - 483.288 Steve Bannon

Very simple. Hey, show me what you got. I got Trump. Show me what you got. Thank you, Eric Bowling. I appreciate you. Thank you, Steve. Always. See, we didn't have a show plan, so hanging out with Derek is the best thing to do. What's the TRT? My young charge is right here. What's the TRT on our cold open? Boom. We're going to go to a cold open right now. You're in the war room.

0

483.308 - 484.149 Steve Bannon

Let's go ahead and let her rip.

0

484.85 - 501.709 Unknown

Number of voters that we're seeing at the two polling places we visited today here in the South Bay area. You know, this is an off year election. There's only one thing on the ballot, but we're seeing substantially more people than I expected here at this polling place. For example, we've seen lines of 20 to 30 people off and on. throughout the day.

0

501.769 - 512.184 Unknown

So it'll be really interesting to see the turnout numbers at the end of the day. And what we're hearing from people, really, it's mostly Democratic voters for whom the messaging from Newsom and the rest of the Democratic Party has very much landed.

0

512.244 - 527.658 Unknown

They're saying that they're here to counteract Republican gerrymandering efforts in Texas and other places, and they're happy for the opportunity to kind of respond to that. as aggressively as Newsom and others have been positioning this. Also, some dissenters, I will say, not just Republicans, but independents.

527.678 - 548.809 Unknown

I'll play you a sample of the interviews we've been doing, one with a Democrat and the other an independent. Take a listen. Texas is doing something and that's going to have a negative impact, I feel, on what's going on. And we have to do something in response to what they're trying to do.

549.07 - 558.782 Eric Bolling

Do you think too wrong is equal to right? There's reasons why we need to force bipartisanship. And this goes against that.

560.888 - 578.41 Unknown

That last point, Katie, that, you know, what Texas did by gerrymandering districts in this sort of nakedly partisan move to benefit Republicans was not good and that California should not stoop down to that level is one that Republicans here and nationally tried to exploit in trying to get people not to vote for Prop 50.

578.45 - 593.992 Unknown

But from what I'm hearing from people, by and large, Katie, that didn't really work. Most of the Democrats, at least, that I'm talking to are really kind of excited about about an opportunity finally to sort of fight fire with fires or, you know, take the gloves off, whatever metaphor people prefer.

Chapter 7: What controversies are surrounding the candidates in Virginia?

670.026 - 684.18 Unknown

And that's why Republicans are trying to elevate the potential new mayor of New York City as a Democratic socialist, because that plays into the narrative that voters already have about Democrats too far to the left. And until they figure that out, they're going to have problem playing in places like West Virginia.

0

684.278 - 706.59 Unknown

There appears potentially to have been some tightening in the race in the last few days. Staten Island could be a difference maker. Donald Trump is trying to weigh in and convince Republicans in this city to vote for Cuomo. Should we be reading into what the margin ends up being? Say Mamdani does win, but he doesn't win by or he wins by less than 10 points. Is that going to matter?

0

707.127 - 723.746 Unknown

Well, I think you've predicted a narrative that's going to be fought out in the next couple of days because it's a it is a three way race. We're not sure how much Sliwa will lose to Cuomo because of Trump's appeal, which Sliwa would never make. I was at a campaign rally this weekend. It was all about how he's not going to take bribes from billionaires and not drop out.

0

724.427 - 736.66 Unknown

So Democrats who don't want the party defined by Mamdani, I think they will point to that. His agenda is going to be more important. And the way his agenda is discussed, Brennan was just talking about the perception that Democrats are viewed as more progressive.

0

736.7 - 756.76 Unknown

Specifically, what really hurt them, and you saw this in New York last year, those interviews Mom Donnie was doing on the street, but other interviews, a lot of people did, was the perception that Democrats were taxing you, American taxpayers, and using that for hotels for migrants who had been sent in from Texas.

756.74 - 777.073 Unknown

They're using it for surgeries, for gender surgeries for prisoners with Kamala's position. One thing I expect Republicans to hit with Mamdani is a position to make New York a sanctuary for transgender people who are being discriminated against in their own states and offering a fund to help with their treatment, help with their gender transitions in New York.

777.133 - 793.058 Unknown

I think there'll be much more of a focus by Republicans on the policies he tries to lay out in New York. I found this covering Bernie Sanders. We might hear socialism and think of the economic basis of socialism and Karl Marx. For a lot of voters, it just means left wing and it means you're taking my money and giving it to somebody else.

793.038 - 807.161 Unknown

And that's something Mamdani did a very good job of describing in the campaign. Cuomo did a terrible job rebutting, but something Republicans are very... You saw that with Eric Adams. Eric Adams' mayoralty was basically destroyed by those sorts of expenditures by Democrats and his inability to explain them.

807.622 - 814.573 Unknown

And there are going to be Republicans who wouldn't have been safe, but now will be because of those maps. But on the president's agenda, look, the Republican...

Chapter 8: What are the predictions for election outcomes based on current data?

1105.891 - 1133.47 Steve Bannon

And it's got to be dealt with by denaturalization and shipping him the hell back to Uganda. Right there, baseless allegations. Yo, dude, he won the 2020 election. I don't know if that was on your radar scope because you weren't a citizen then. Oh, I might be wrong. You might have just got in under the wire. His whole citizenship is highly, highly, highly suspect. Should be reviewed quickly.

0

1135.152 - 1153.828 Steve Bannon

And then if he lied on his naturalization forms, then get him the hell out of here. Denaturalize him. Send him back to Uganda and let him work on it from there. Getting back here. The progressives, because you're going to have a Marxist jihadist

0

1155.108 - 1182.499 Steve Bannon

As we've been telling you, you're going to have a Marxist jihadist with their hands on the governmental apparatus of the financial capital of the United States of America and the financial capital of the world. 24 years after the jihadists, radical Islam struck the World Trade Center.

0

1184.285 - 1214.123 Steve Bannon

killing all those folks about their daily business, basically doing what American citizens do to drive forward the country doing their jobs. And of course, the firemen and the police officers that died in the line of duty doing their jobs. And what's the reward you get? How long is the memory? Remember all those speeches every year on September 11th? They'll be remembered forever.

0

1214.223 - 1247.514 Steve Bannon

Well, hey, they're being forgotten today. They may be remembered forever, but they're going to skip for November in the year of our Lord 2025. President Trump is, for better or for worse, he is one of the most extraordinary people leaders this country's ever had. He saved us from the Clintons and the Bushes in the managed decline of this country.

1247.955 - 1269.405 Steve Bannon

And it's been pushed harder since they stole the 2020 election from him, stole the 2020 election because they had to force him out. You've gone beyond the managed decline to a complete and total collapse of the country. This is what divine providence allowed us to see in the four years in the wilderness. Do you remember those years?

1270.702 - 1296.297 Steve Bannon

And I just think that the strongest MAGA voices in the folks, and when I say strongest MAGA voices, I don't mean me or some of the people that come on here, Mike Davis or others. I mean you. You have not been listened to. That we want President Trump engaged, and we don't want to hear from the Republican Party. What you're going to see tonight is the Republican Party outside of Trump.

1296.337 - 1319.78 Steve Bannon

Now, the great Cliff Maloney... tells me we may have a shot in New Jersey. If we have a shot, the polls are open to 8 p.m. Eastern Standard Time in the Garden State. Cliff, what do you got for us? Yeah, Steve, here's the update. So we've obviously been tracking to see what turnout will look like on Election Day. Like I said this morning on your show, we were able to eat in on the vote by mail.

1320.02 - 1344.199 Steve Bannon

We had a 5% jump on the early voting. But it's all going to come down to today. And the good news for Jack is the more Election Day votes that occur today, he is going to win election day handedly. So we need to run up the numbers. Right now, my prediction is this. If 3 million people end up voting in total, we will lose this race. If roughly 3.1, we're at least in play.
