Steve Bannon promises Republicans will “get to the bottom” of Biden's 2020 win after the midterms

Bannon: “These Biden +20s and +25s and +30s and +15s - it's because there weren't the votes in the first place. Come on, you think we're fools?”

STEVE BANNON [HOST]: Let me put a point in this. Let me put a point in this so Media Matters and our own head of marketing, Madeline Peltz, the team at Media Matters, and Mark Elias, and all these people. Let me be blunt. Let me be very blunt.

As much as we are proud of the issue set that we helped craft and put forward and the candidates and everything and the work of MAGA and knocking on doors, ringing doorbells, let me be brutally frank. These Biden +20s and +25s and +30s and +15s - it's because there weren't the votes in the first place. Come on, you think we're fools?

This is exposing the whole – this is exposing everything right here. This is historic, it's never happened before. And yes, we have the issue set and people have worked and War Room has been there and MAGA has been there and we got great candidates and bang bang bang, but at the bottom of it, it's just like the polling. He never had the votes in the first place and if you don't think that starting next week we're not going to get to the bottom of this after we're in control, you are sadly mistaken, Mark Elias and Media Matters. Cause we're going to get to the bottom of it. Okay? And the bottom of it is going to be the abyss of the radical Democratic party. I am 100% focused on one thing and your total and complete destruction. Okay? From school boards all the way up. You're unworthy. You're unworthy to represent the American people and Baris when you see these numbers that are historic beyond any comprehension it's because he didn't have the votes in the first place.
