MAGA media titan makes sensational Iran U-turn as he tells Trump ‘we’ll get on board’ with strikes

Steve Bannon has dramatically predicted that Donald Trump’s supporters will ultimately rally behind the president if he decides to blow up Iran’s mountain nuclear base.
It’s a massive flip from Trump’s former chief strategist who has in the past been adamantly opposed to strikes against Iran.
Bannon said that the MAGA movement will stand behind Trump – even if they might not be fully on board with the idea of the U.S. backing Israel’s attacks on Iran.
‘If President Trump decides there’s not a diplomatic alternative… because he’s been consistent, no nuclear weapon,’ Bannon said during a Christian Science Monitor event on Wednesday.
He continued: ‘If President Trump decides to do that, I know, and particularly his skills as a communicator, that he will come and walk people through it and the MAGA movement—look, there’ll be some— but the vast majority of the MAGA movement will say, ‘look, we trust your judgment, you walked us through this.”
‘Maybe we hate it but, you know, we’ll get on board,’ Bannon concluded.
There are clear divisions within the MAGAverse over whether Trump should involve the U.S. in Israel’s escalating conflict with Iran.
Earlier on Wednesday, Trump dodged on whether the U.S. will get involved and strike Iranian nuclear facilities.
‘I may do it, I may not do it,’ the president said.
Former Trump advisor Steve Bannon totally flipped the script on Wednesday and said that the MAGA movement and loyalists to the president will fall in line if he decided to get the U.S. involved in Israel’s strikes against Iran
Bannon acknowledged that Trump’s decision to take action against Iran might divide the movement even further.
‘If the president as commander-in-chief makes a decision to do this and comes forward and walks people through it, the MAGA movement— they’ll lose some— but the MAGA movement, the Marjorie Taylor Greenes, the Matt Gaetzs, we will fight it up to the end and make sure you get full information but if he has more intelligence and makes that case to the American people, the MAGA movement will support President Trump,’ he said.
In an effort to stop Iran from gaining nuclear weapon capabilities, Israel launched earlier this month its so-called Operation Rising Lion.
The air campaign began June 12 and saw Israel strike Iran’s leadership, nuclear facilities and military infrastructure. This included a targeted strike on the Natanz nuclear enrichment facility where several senior Iranian nuclear scientists and military commanders were killed.
Iran retaliated with launching ballistic missiles and drones on Israeli military targets and civilian populations, mostly in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
Most missiles headed for Israel were intercepted.
President Donald Trump returned from the G7 early amid the ongoing missile strikes between Israel and Iran. He said at the White House on Wednesday when asked if the U.S. will strike against Iran: ‘I may do it, I may not do it’
Trump returned from the G7 in Canada early amid the ongoing missile barrages between Iran and U.S. ally Israel.
In recent days, Trump’s rhetoric has become more threatening towards Tehran.
On Tuesday he met in the Situation Room with members of his national security team.
The same day he called for Iran’s ‘unconditional surrender’ and said Iran’s Supreme Leader is an ‘easy target,’ though he sid there are no plans to target him in a strike – ‘at least for now.’
