Republicans will govern for "50 years" if President-elect Trump fulfills his campaign promises and ushers in an economic boom, the incoming president's senior adviser told The Hollywood Reporter.

"If we deliver, we'll get 60 percent of the white vote, and 40 percent of the black and Hispanic vote and we'll govern for 50 years," Bannon said, noting that the globalism championed by defeated Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton and her allies has "gutted the American working class and created a middle class in Asia."

"The issue now is about Americans looking to not get fucked over," he said.

Bannon, a controversial figure whose recent appointment to a senior White House role has left Democratic leaders fuming, rejected those who have accused him of racism and said he and Trump are economic populists in the tradition of former President Andrew Jackson.

"I'm not a white nationalist, I'm a nationalist. I'm an economic nationalist," he told the Hollywood Reporter. "Like [Andrew] Jackson's populism, we're going to build an entirely new political movement.



"It's everything related to jobs ... It will be as exciting as the 1930s, greater than the Reagan revolution — conservatives, plus populists, in an economic nationalist movement," he said.
