''President Trump is going to be impeached,' Bannon said, throwing cold water on the bacchanalia. Everyone stopped chattering. The opera cake was gone.'
Photo-Illustration: Megan Paetzhold/Intelligencer/Getty Images Being a young Republican in New York can be tough. Tinder is a minefield, plastic straws are hard to come by, and MAGA hats can’t be worn in public. Some choose to keep quiet about their politics. But two weeks ago, a group of millennial Republicans braved the cold, the rain, and the jeers of a small band of protesters to attend the New York Young Republican Club’s 107th annual gala at the Yale Club in midtown.
“Elitist!? Look at how you’re dressed! You should not be here,” the man said before getting off on his floor. Once the doors shut, the elevator erupted in laughter. Spirits were high and refuge was just a few floors above. In 2016, the New York Young Republicans were depicted in a New York Times story as confused by Donald Trump. “When people ask me at work about him, I tell them he doesn’t represent all of us,” one member said. Either the NYYRs have come around or the club has seen a lot of turnover. In the past few years, the NYYRs have welcomed speakers like far-right blogger Pam Geller and professional internet troll Mike Cernovich. Milo Yiannopoulos was the guest of honor at the club’s MAGAWEEN costume party.
Cambridge Analytica was his connection to the NYYR. He had worked for the company that used galaxies of Facebook user data to target Trump voters. He said he didn’t agree with the mission. I asked him what he did now that Cambridge Analytica is no more. “I’m in the cannabis sector,” he said, grinning as he showed me a packet of weed. “Welcome to the Young Republicans gala!” Spirits were high when Prince finally took the stage.
Prince’s speech painted his former company, Blackwater, as a victim of the so-called “permanent administrative state.” He said that “after one unfortunate event in Nisour Square, the political attack came. Literally a blizzard of subpoenas from every federal agency you might not have even heard of.” The “unfortunate event” Prince was referring to was in 2007, when his Blackwater employees killed 14 Iraqi civilians and injured 20 others.
Finally, it was time for “Uncle Steve,” as someone had referred to him earlier in the night. After some microphone troubles , Bannon proceeded to say that he had planned to talk geopolitics, but instead he wanted to have a frank discussion about the storm on the horizon.
