Susan Diamond: Even Republicans should speak out against Bannon’s new role
Just because someone supports a candidate politically doesn’t mean that they have to endorse all their decisions. Jeff Denham is mute re: Steve Bannon’s appointment to Donald Trump’s White House team. Bannon’s great support and promotion of the most horrendous aspects of our culture, through his Breitbart website, is enough to disqualify him. Yet Denham apparently agrees with the neo-Nazi, white supremacist views sufficiently to remain on the sidelines. Shame on him!

Editor’s note: Steve Bannon insists he and Breitbart are not racist, but that the webiste is “vibrant” with multiple viewpoints.
