Pollster Mark Mitchell, on Friday’s WarRoom, reveals a 10-point surge in President Trump’s approval to +7 amid crackdowns on domestic terrorists following Charlie Kirk’s assassination, celebrating media giants like MSNBC’s irrelevance and impending collapse from boycotts.
Mitchell warns the WarRoom audience of internet radicalization turning Zoomers into Marxist zombies via platforms like Reddit, Discord, and Steam, where algorithms suppress conservative voices and foster transgenderism and anarchy.
Bannon expanded on Mitchell’s report and calls for House Oversight hearings to grill CEOs on cultivating terrorist networks, framing this as a “messy fourth turning” of societal collapse, urging swift reform of corporatist systems to nurture based youth and avert chaos, while rejecting unification for victorious MAGA dominance.

Mitchell’s edgy take: without purging woke influences online, Zoomers risk reforming society into a dystopian hellscape, but Trump’s surge shows aggressive crackdowns win public support.
It aligns with Bannon’s call for eradicating Marxism root and branch, rejecting economic communism’s corpse for its living sociological poison in critical theories. Victory demands action, not tolerance, to reclaim the cultural zeitgeist trashed by leftists.
In the WarRoom segment, Bannon introduces Mitchell after discussing media hypocrisy and Antifa designations, praising his insights on Reddit and polling. Mitchell starts by mocking MSNBC’s cold opens, noting their U.S. ranking at 885—below a gay hentai site—making them irrelevant. He cheers the firing of hosts like Jimmy Kimmel, arguing that politicized networks like NBC and Disney deserve bankruptcy due to bilateral boycotts: right for bias, left for concessions.
Mitchell highlights Trump’s polling bounce: from a post-assassination dip in right-direction sentiment (45-50% to 40%), now recovering to 42%, with approval up 10 points to +7 in a week. He attributes this to Americans rallying behind Trump’s aggressive leadership in the face of threats, contrasting it with historical presidential summer slumps. Bannon notes that it’s unprecedented, tying it to no-nonsense approaches that expose foreign and domestic enemies.
Shifting to cultural wars, Mitchell discusses the internet’s dark underbelly and its potential to radicalize youth. He explains that Zoomers’ messed-up values stem from broken families, unconventional teachers, early exposure to inappropriate content, and algorithm-driven platforms that shape minds. Kids migrate from TikTok and YouTube to Discord, Reddit, and gaming communities like Steam, encountering groomers pushing transgenderism and kinks.
Mitchell recalls Reddit’s 2016 role in Trump’s rise via subreddits like The_Donald, fostering Great Awakening and Pepe memes amid GamerGate’s young male disillusionment. But post-victory, Big Tech banned it, creating a leftist “monoculture” where free markets of ideas are stifled. He notes transgender subreddits rival Christianity’s size (both massive), with anarchy and anti-fascist groups thriving at 280k and 120k subs, migrating to Discord and the dark web for unchecked growth.
He ties this to House Oversight Chair James Comer’s announced hearings on CEOs from Reddit, Discord, and Steam for enabling terrorist networks.
Mitchell argues these platforms, influenced by entities like USAID or Tencent, shut down right-wing voices while allowing leftist extremism to fester, leading to real-world violence like Kirk’s killing. Bannon agrees, emphasizing the need for accountability after five years of inaction on Antifa as a terrorist group.
Mitchell frames this in “fourth turning” theory: cyclical societal trust collapse leading to reform, but warns if Zoomers—polling anti-capitalist due to corporatism’s failures—lead it, society faces trouble. He sees salvation in “based” segments of 18-30-year-olds stepping into leadership, nurtured to counter radicalization. Bannon concurs, noting the nation’s future lies in growing this group.
Critiquing broader issues, Mitchell calls U.S. economy “corporatism,” not capitalism, alienating youth as serfs in a system where they own nothing. He urges benevolent reform by “the blood of the pros” (proletariat), not billionaires who could avert crisis but won’t. Bannon pushes back on benevolence in turnings, but Mitchell insists on action to reform institutions sooner.
