Steve Bannon wants Don Jr. at 'top of the list' to become Trump's next attorney general

Donald Trump Jr. is now "at the top of the list" to be his father's next attorney general, according to former White House adviser and convicted criminal Steve Bannon.

Bannon, out of prison on appeal, made the remarks while interviewing Sergio Gor, Trump Jr.'s business partner in a book publishing venture.

Gor explained that the publishing company intended to fly former White House trade adviser Peter Navarro to the Republican National Convention when he was released from prison in July.

"Right now, if everything goes to plan, Peter gets released on the morning of the 17th, that is the day before the convention ends, and our plan is for him to fly to Milwaukee and join everybody, including President Trump, at the convention," Gor said.

Bannon noted that the younger Trump's name had been floated for attorney general.

"One last thing, Sergio, make sure you tell your partner, on Morning Joe this morning, they mentioned Don Jr. as Attorney General, hey, I gotta say, I think it may go to the top of my list, it may go to the top of my list, you don't need a law degree, you need common sense," Bannon opined. "Don Jr.'s got common sense, I wanna put him at the top of the list now for AG, which I would love to be there for the confirmation hearing, sir."

"I love that idea, and I'll share that with him, I'm actually flying out with him in about an hour, so that'll be our topic of conversation," Gor replied.

"Yeah, tell him we're gonna push it hard," Bannon concluded.
