Trump Campaign CEO Called Progressive Women ‘Dykes,’ Was Sued for Sexual Harassment

Bannon Claimed the Left Vilifies Conservative Women Because They’re Not ‘A Bunch of Dykes That Came From the Seven Sisters Schools’

The other day, we told you how Donald Trump’s new campaign CEO, Breitbart News’ Stephen Bannon, had a rough first week on the job — with allegations of domestic abuse, voter fraud and anti-semitic remarks all surfacing. 

So far, Bannon’s second week isn’t going much better. 

On Monday, BuzzFeed News reported that in 2011, Bannon said in a a radio interview that women vilify conservatives like Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann and Ann Coulter because they’re not “a bunch of dykes from the Seven Sisters schools” — a reference to the historic women’s colleges in the Northeast. 

“And so these women cut to the heart of the progressive narrative,” Bannon said on Political Vindication Radio, according to BuzzFeed. “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. That drives the left insane and that’s why they hate these women.”

Bannon’s use of a gay slur is hardly surprising given Breitbart News’ penchant for vile, anti-LGBT headlines. And the report comes on the heels of a Trump surrogate, Maine Gov. Paul LePage, calling a Democratic lawmaker a “c*cksucker.” 

In the 2011 interview, Bannon went on to say that “the progressive narrative” is “all about victimhood.” 

“They’re either a victim of race. They’re victim of their sexual preference. They’re a victim of gender. All about victimhood and the United States is the great oppressor, not the great liberator,” he said.  

Meanwhile, we also learned that Bannon was sued for sexual harassment in the 1990s, and that he once allegedly fired a woman who had multiple sclerosis while she was on maternity leave.
