Just last week Bannon assured us all that Trump had the midterms in the bag, because he was going have ICE agents at every polling place (a physical impossibility) to stop all those non-caucasians from voting.

Now he’s panicking that his ultra incompetent overlord is going to fuck up Republican chances in the election…

So, does that mean he was just trolling us libs (or at least the Doomers amongst us who ate it right up) with his threats last week?
