Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon loves him some lyin election denyin and repetition, too.

On his War Room show Monday, Bannon took his ad nauseum claims that Joe Biden is an illegitimate president to a new level in a one-minute rant that repeated stole or steal at least seven times.

There are no issues with the 2020 election; they stole it, he said. Let me repeat that. They stole it. And they hate when we say this. They stole it. And theyre on notice; theyre not going to be able to steal it again. People are doing a ton of work on this, and thats still not enough, but its going to get better. The hairy eyeball is going to be on them.

Bannon continued, The only way that they defeat Trump is to steal it. The only way they defeat Trump is they steal it. The only way they defeat Trump is they steal it. He is unstoppable.

While he clings to his baseless assertion, Bannon also faces legal jeopardy related to the effort to overturn the 2020 election.

Bannon was given four months behind bars for defying a subpoena to surrender relevant records to a House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection, but has appealed .
