Gorka calls Steyer’s impeachment ad an ‘SNL skit’
Former White House adviser Sebastian Gorka on Sunday compared California billionaire Tom Steyer’s campaign to impeach President Trump to a “Saturday Night Live” skit.
“Laughable, I mean just laughable. That’s an ‘SNL’ skit. ‘SNL’ should run that,” Gorka told host Steve Scully on C-SPAN’s “Washington Journal.”
Gorka said that Steyer and Democratic mega-donor George Soros, who became wealthy under the nation’s democratic system, now seek to challenge the foundations of the government by attempting to impeach the leader who was chosen by the people in the 2016 election.
{mosads}”I find it so ironic that people like Steyer and people like Soros drink from the cup of overflowing liberty and market forces for decades — become billionaires and then they want to destroy the system that allowed them to become so wealthy. It is just fantasy, absolute fantasy,” he told Scully.
Steyer has spent millions of dollars on the impeachment campaign, which has garnered over 1 million signatures since its launch last month.
Trump on Oct. 27 blasted Steyer for trying to block his agenda.
“Wacky & totally unhinged Tom Steyer, who has been fighting me and my Make America Great Again agenda from beginning, never wins elections!” Trump wrote on Twitter.
Gorka left the White House in August shortly after Trump’s chief strategist, Stephen Bannon, left his post. Gorka had also worked under Bannon at Breitbart News, before following him to the White House.
Gorka, who was known for his focus on Islamist terrorism, is on a tour to promote his new book “Defeating Jihad, the Winnable War.”
