Trump distances from Bannon after arrest over border wall fundraising fraud: 'Showboat'

"I feel very badly," Trump told reporters."I haven't been dealing with him for a very long period of time."

"As alleged, the defendants defrauded hundreds of thousands of donors, capitalizing on their interest in funding a border wall to raise millions of dollars, under the false pretense that all of that money would be spent on construction," Acting U.S. Attorney Audrey Strauss said in a news release announcing the indictment.

President Donald Trump speaks during a meeting with Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhemi in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC, August 20, 2020. On Thursday, Trump tried to distance himself from his former political adviser Steve Bannon, who was arrested earlier in the day on criminal fraud charges."I don't like that project," Trump said."I thought it was being done for showboating reasons.

"As everyone knows, President Trump has no involvement in this project and felt it was only being done in order to showboat, and perhaps raise funds," McEnany said. Her statement continued to distance the president from Bannon's activities.

'I should have got in on that'

Espérons un autre président pour ce grand pays

Bannon? I never met him. I think he worked for the campaign early on getting coffee or something. I don’t know him.

Predictably.

Newsweek is canceled.

gfy Newsweek - You’re as credible as InfoWars

Yet Bannon is still speaking at the RNC..... doesn’t sound like distance to me.

Wasn’t tRump just boasting about boatersfortrump?

williamlegate Lol, of course he did. However, we all know how well trump knows Bannon.

Another one bites the dust

Don Jr. endorsed them so you know it's Another Trump scam too

Says the sinking stinking Master Showboater

Distancing himself from Bannon! They’ve been in a feud or for over two years! The hell is Newsweek talking about!

But Bannon will not distance himself from Trump. He probably believes that without him, Trump wouldn’t be elected to any office. And he’s probably right.

Get the bus.

Did Trump get any money ?

williamlegate Jr was a big fan, or paid for an endorsement from stolen funds

williamlegate Trump supporters who contributed to the Bannon Fund should trade-in their red MAGA baseball caps for pointy conical DUNCE caps.

Deny, distract, distance. Donald.

williamlegate I barely knew him, he hasn’t worked for me in a long time, I feel bad for him, 🗣🗣🗣🗣🗣

williamlegate Trump's house of cards isn't much of a house anymore these days.

He fired him years ago... but ok

“I barely know the guy”
