Axios - MAGA godfather Steve Bannon is laying the groundwork for a 2028 run for president, two people familiar with his thinking tell Axios' Alex Isenstadt.
The former White House adviser isn't serious about becoming president — that's not the point.

Former Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), who has appeared on Bannon's "WarRoom" podcast, said: "The Bannon campaign will merge the foreign policy of Rand Paul with the tax policy of Elizabeth Warren."
Bannon adamantly denied a run to Axios: He called the idea "bullsh*t" and said he's been focused on something else for 2028: supporting a third term for President Trump, despite the Constitution's two-term limit on presidents. Full Story
