He wants to defund the state department, he has made sure to put a Russian puppet as Secretary of State, and the entire world's opinion of the U.S. is in freefall. But for Trumpists like wil, that is actually a good thing because they despise the civilized world.

We're so used to incredibly stupid false equivalences postMAGA that this run of the mill example doesn't register as well.

Basically, it took some Obama getting caught with his hand in the cookie jar to have ALMOST BUT NOT QUITE the same drop as trump doing NOTHING but trumping. So, imagine what happens with an actual scandal.

I saw your posts but they didn't pass the smell test. You're going to have to do better than that. Right now it looks like the simplest explanation here is correct: Gorka is a Nazi in an administration full of Nazis.

He wore his Nazi medal to the inauguration too, it's not like he's really trying to hide it.

Here's another interesting thing about the Nazi Gorka, who is supposed to be a Security Expert:

He was arrested at Reagan Airport with a gun:

Then arrested for reckless driving in Virginia:

Then found guilty in absentia for the gun charge:

Read this thread on why Trump is going back on his promises to get "tough on trade" in favor of getting in bed with major Chinese business interests:

Actually I got them from here:

http://www.tabletmag.com/scroll/2277...-ties-unravels
A reputable Jewish news site. A Jewish news site that says Gorka isn't a Nazi.

Just let that sink in a little bit.

So, the Nazi group claims him as a member:

Quote:

Gorka — who Vitézi Rend leaders say took a lifelong oath of loyalty to their group — did not respond to multiple emails sent to his work and personal accounts, asking whether he is a member of the Vitézi Rend and, if so, whether he disclosed this on his immigration application and on his application to be naturalized as a U.S. citizen in 2012. The White House also did not respond to a request for comment.

But Bruce Einhorn, a retired immigration judge who now teaches nationality law at Pepperdine University, said of this, “His silence speaks volumes.”

He is seen wearing their Nazi medals not once but twice.
Multiple other members of the Trump administration have ties to Nazi groups as well.
Trump's far-right authoritarian style of government along with demonizing immigrants, minorities, and the poor matches up very very smoothly with the Nazi regime and their political ideas and goals.

What's really interesting is that right-wingers like Sushi don't seem interested at all in finding and getting rid of Nazis in their administration. They just want to deny all charges, no matter how damning the evidence is. Just like a racist is never interested in actually solving racism, but instead spends all their energy denying that racism exists in order to gaslight the victims of said racism. It's almost like Sushi really is a Nazi, he just doesn't like the term Nazi.

The white supremacist + eugenics language of Nazism quite often matches up with mainstream Republicanism/conservatism in 2017. Here's Brian Kilmeade saying we "shouldn't marry other species" on Fox & Friends, a very mainstream Republican show in the U.S.:

Really. Where are these mountains of evidence then?

All I've seen so far is unsubstantiated hearsay and some obscure medal that belonged to his father.

You should be ashamed of yourself for continually trying to smear people without proof or conclusive evidence. It's happening far too often.

It's hard to keep track of all of the LIES, that's part of their strategy. Remember the old saying, "If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull****." Well that's pretty much 45*'s admin's comprehensive strategy.

The New York Times has confirmed that Fox News legal analyst Andrew Napolitano sourced his false allegation that former President Barack Obama asked British intelligence to spy on President Donald Trump to a discredited former CIA analyst. This analyst, Larry C. Johnson, floated the conspiracy theory on the Russian state-sponsored news network RT on March 6, the week after Trump's original accusation that Obama was responsible for an illegal wiretap.
