Stephen Bannon
Filter By
Stephen (Steve) Bannon is the former executive chairman of the website Breitbart News and served as the CEO of the Trump campaign for its last few months before becoming Trump’s chief strategist in the White House, where he served until August 2017.
Along with his experience promoting alt-right ideology and self-described interest in proto-fascist propaganda, Bannon brought to the campaign a strong connection to the billionaire Robert Mercer, a major Trump donor and part-owner of the data firm Cambridge Analytica, which played a central role in the Trump campaign’s digital operations.
