President-elect Donald Trump's announcement of "alt-right" news executive Stephen Bannon as White House chief strategist has prompted plenty of backlash.
It's not just liberals who don't like the former chairman of Breitbart News-- even conservative commentator Glenn Beck called Bannon a "nightmare" and Watch Wet Men And Women Onlinea "terrifying man."

" [T]hese women cut to the heart of the progressive narrative. That’s why there are some unintended consequences of the women’s liberation movement. That, in fact, the women that would lead this country would be pro-family, they would have husbands, they would love their children. They wouldn’t be a bunch of dykes that came from the Seven Sisters schools up in New England." -- 2011 radio interview with Political Vindication Radio
He "didn't want the girls going to school with Jews ... He said he doesn’t like Jews and that he doesn’t like the way they raise their kids to be ‘whiney brats.'" -- The Guardian, from his wife in court documents filed in 2007. Bannon has denied saying it.
"Fear is a good thing. Fear is going to lead you to take action." -- Richmond-Times Dispatch
"I’m a Leninist ... Lenin wanted to destroy the state, and that’s my goal too. I want to bring everything crashing down, and destroy all of today’s establishment." -- The Daily Beast
"...that scalp still has bloody flesh on it!!!!" -- email exchange after the 2010 incident. The email surfaced in a libel suit brought by Sherrod against Breitbart News.
