His jest will savour but of shallow wit. When thousands weep more than did laugh at it.

Doesn't Bannon have a nice, comfortable, acid filled hot tub he can slink off to?

In my Shakespeare class in college sooooo long ago, we read Titus first. The prof said it was so we could start with something we didn't need to take seriously. If I remember correctly there was a bad guy who was a Moor which I think translates to black guy. This may have gotten Mr. Bannon's attention. At some point in the play someone chops up their enemies children, cooks them up and feeds it to their parent for dinner. Shakespeare was having a bad day when he wrote Titus.

Spuds MacKenzie is an icon of the alt right? Sheesh, what's next? Smokey the Bear? The Target dog? Woodsy Owl?

That's actually one of the better photos I've seen of Bannon. Of course, the bar is set pretty low - practically underground.

If he actually had talent, Bannon could have written the Shakespearean version of "The Big Lebowski":

My memory may be a little fuzzy, but yes I'm afraid it is so w/ Spud's. In the90's I remember there was some controversy about Spud & some Altright group of the time
