THE POINT OF VIEW OF TRUMP'S FORMER IDEOLOGIST
Steve Bannon, the ideologue of the American ultra-right who dragged Trump to victory, he says he dreams of an Italian government formed by the alliance between the Movement 5 Stars and League
Of Raffaello Binelli
L'ex guru on Trump, the one who gave life to the “alternative right” americana, derogatorily branded by opponents as “populist”, focuses on Italian politics.
He does it with an interview with the director of The Press, Maurizio Molinari. “Salvini and Di Maio? My dream is to see them govern together”, dice Steve Bannon without hesitation. “Sono espressioni diverse dello stesso fenomeno e superano, together with other smaller formations, half of the voters”.
The ideologue of the US ultra-right expresses his considerations by rooting wildly for the leader of the League, forgetting, but, which is the entire centre-right coalition, led by Berlusconi, to have won the most seats of all. “If Salvini governs with the Five Star Movement – Bannon observes – he will be the driving force, if Salvini remains in the opposition he will be able to claim credit for defeating corrupt people like Berlusconi, if there is a government of national unity it will always be Salvini who will impose the objectives dear to the middle class. In the future of Italy there is the League, which will snatch votes from the Five Star Movement in the South thanks to its positions on migrants”.
Bannon does not hide that he prefers the Northern League between the two political leaders who established themselves in the last elections. “The leader of the League represents the North, or three quarters of the national GDP, while the Cinquestelle leader proposes citizenship income, a version of the’subsidized economy, which will bankrupt the public coffers in less than two years”. A scenario, This, which according to Bannon could transform Italy into “driving force of national populism”, Why “you are more creative than British, French and Germans, you are a nation accustomed to producing great changes”.
