Sebastian Gorka is a Nazi buffoon with sham credentials, but this is … interesting. In his attempt to take down Michael Wolff’s controversial book Fire and Fury, Gorka writes that:
So, when I met Michael Wolff in Reince Priebus’ office, where he was waiting to talk to Steve Bannon, and after I had been told to also speak to him for his book, my attitude was polite but firm: “Thanks but no thanks.” Our brief encounter reinforced my gut feeling that this oleaginous scribe had no interest in being fair and unbiased.
Remember, the official White House line is that Wolff had no meaningful access (beyond Bannon, who lost his mind and was never influential anyway despite having been Donald Trump’s top adviser), but here Gorka is putting him in Reince Priebus’ office. Who was chief of staff at the time. And Gorka was “told to also speak to” Wolff. In short, Gorka’s rebuttal of Wolff’s book confirms that Wolff had access not just to Bannon but to Trump’s then-chief of staff.
Also, can we talk about what kind of projection Gorka is engaging in when he describes Wolff as “oleaginous”? Because talk about the exact right word for Gorka himself!
