Gorka said that the U.S. will make “the black flag of jihad” as “repugnant” as the Nazi flag.

Um…Didn’t ISIS do that itself?

“Ideas can be defeated —especially bad ones,” This is true and hopefully in 2018 we will discover how true this is as Republicans are tossed and honest investigations in Trump, and his regime begin in earnest.

“[Gorka] also boasted about how much Trump loves the military . . . .”

On Sept. 17, 1968, [Trump] reported for an armed forces physical examination and was medically disqualified,

Trump has given limited information about the nature of his medical ailment from 1968 that left him classified as “1-Y,” or unqualified for duty except in the case of a national emergency.

On Saturday, during a campaign stop in Iowa, Trump said he had a bone spur in his foot but couldn’t recall which one

I just can’t take Sebby Gorka seriously when he’s not wearing his marching band uniform…

Just another paid liar for Trump; ignore him, perhaps he’ll go away.

BTW, without having researched Gorka’s life, how MUCH do you want to bet that he was all for the US and Europe arming the Mujahedin that became Al Qaida when it served the Cold War imperative of the American Right?
Also, I wonder how it feels to be a play soldier like Trump and Gorka to have Gen. McMasters tell them and the NSC that he does not believe in the term Radical Islam?

Idiocy, trickling down from his idiot boss who thinks everything can be boiled down to marketing. A war on a “brand” won’t be any more successful in stopping attacks than the war on “terror” was. The “brand” is already despised by most of the people of the entire world, and some puke like this making hay off of fox news appearances doesn’t have a single idea on how to stop it.

Irony is dead.

When he says jihad, does anyone else get the feeling that he really wants to say Islam?

Yep, too bad, considering the stone-cold look alike for Goebbels now…

A web of deep ties to Hungary’s right and antisemitic groups.

But an investigation by the Forward into Gorka’s activities from 2002 to 2007, while he was active in Hungarian politics and journalism, found that he had close ties then to Hungarian far-right circles, and has in the past chosen to work with openly racist and anti-Semitic groups and public figures.

Gorka’s involvement with the far right includes co-founding a political party with former prominent members of Jobbik, a political party with a well-known history of anti-Semitism; repeatedly publishing articles in a newspaper known for its anti-Semitic and racist content; and attending events with some of Hungary’s most notorious extreme-right figures.

Retired Lt. Col. Mike Lewis told the Post that when Gorka was lecturing to members of the armed forces, he “made a difficult and complex situation simple and confirmed the officers’ prejudices and assumptions.”

So we shifted from “destroying ISIS” in the military sense to “discounting/discontinuing ISIS” in the Chipotle Grill/Sears Roebuck/Pontiac sense?

At University, he served in the British Intelligence Corps reserves. So he’s totally badass and ready to get him some Jihadi scalps.

These two items from Wiki need reconciling:

After returning to Hungary in 1998, Gorka served as an adviser to Viktor OrbĂĄn,[12] While in that role in 2002 he began his work on a Ph.D. in political science, finishing in 2007 a dissertation on the strategic differences between the politically motivated terrorism of the Cold War and the religiously motivated terrorists such as Al Qaeda.[2][13
…

In 1998 Gorka was awarded the Kokkalis Fellowship at Harvard University John F. Kennedy School of Government. At Harvard he became one of the founding members of the Council on Emerging National Security Affairs (CENSA).[16] Before starting the second year of his public policy fellowship, he abandoned his studies and was hired by the RAND Corporation in the fields of transatlantic security and counterterrorism, but after less than a year at RAND Corporation Gorka returned to Budapest in 2000 to establish and head the now-defunct Center for Euro-Atlantic Integration and Democracy.[17]

Trump ,you had a chance at manhood years ago and failed.
Surrounding yourself with military, and talking like you have a pair,does not make you a man.
