UPDATED: Sebastian Gorka, a controversial adviser to President Trump, exited the White House on Friday. The Federalist ran an alleged resignation letter from Gorka late Friday afternoon. Later, however, a White House official said, “Sebastian Gorka did not resign, but I can confirm he no longer works at the White House.” Gorka, who has been linked to far-right groups in Hungary, blasted the Trump administration’s new Afghanistan policy in the letter reported by the Federalist. Gorka is focused on counterterrorism policy, and objected that references to “radical Islamic terror” were removed from the president’s Afghanistan address. “[G]iven recent events, it is clear to me that forces that do not support the MAGA promise are – for now – ascendant within the White House,” Gorka wrote, according to the Federalist. “As a result, the best and most effective way I can support you, Mr. President, is from outside the People’s House.” Gorka was a close ally of Steve Bannon, Trump’s strategist who was forced to resign last week. “Regrettably, outside of yourself, the individuals who most embodied and represented the policies that will ‘Make America Great Again,’ have been internally countered, systematically removed, or undermined in recent months,” Gorka wrote. “This was made patently obvious as I read the text of your speech on Afghanistan this week.” Gorka also objected that the Afghanistan policy — which marks an escalation of the 16-year-old conflict — lacked strategic focus. Poster Comment: Is there anyone left in the White House who's pro American, and not a globalist progressive?

Seems the swamp is draining Trump. Certainly, the Trump voting public is getting a clear view of just how powerful the deep state is, when someone like Trump who was put in to office of president on a strong populist, America-first platform is being systematically drowned. Even as president, it seems good things simply cannot happen. Not that Trump was ideal in all respects, but still... But Trump has always been and still is smart. It's not out of the question that in a year or two, Trump will wake up one morning and realize just how much he's innundated with the deep state and how wrong he has been in conforming to it, say to hell with it, and start causing huge amount of mayhem and making things right. But first he has to realize what all of us here already know.
By his very nature, Trump like Rush thinks the glass is half full. Little things like "tweaks" to the system will soon have the "American Ferrari" roaring along like gangbusters. In truth, the glass is damn near empty, and the "withdrawal of political capital" have left the US as much in debt in the area of goodwill and morality, as our 20 Trillion debt has left us broke and INDEBTED to evil evil men.
