Conservative firebrand Steve Bannon pleaded guilty to defrauding donors in a fundraising effort to build a wall along the southern US border in a deal that allowed him to avoid prison.
Bannon pleaded guilty to one state felony count of a scheme to defraud in the first degree and was sentenced to a three-year conditional discharge.
My guess is that he realized that he was probably going to lose at trial, and in that case, he would be back in prison. And this time, he can't rely on Trump to pardon his ass out of stir.
