Sebastian Gorka gave a moving speech defending Donald Trump's return to the White House in front of the Oxford Union Society, the world's oldest debate organization.
Gorka's remarks were in opposition to a motion that said, “This House fears the restoration of President Trump's America.”
“This motion is designed in such a way that this house fears the return of a man who has done more than anyone else in at least two generations to restore civilization and defend the concepts of representative government and national sovereignty. “I think it's strange that we were killed,'' Gorka said, “and the greatness of our civilization.''
Before a group made up primarily of Oxford University students, Gorka spoke with April Ryan, currently the White House correspondent for The Griot, a television network and website aimed at African-American audiences. and Larry Sanders, the British politician and brother of a socialist US senator. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
“Maybe people at this university are afraid of him, but for the wrong reasons,” he says.
“Why wouldn't we want the only person in history to get more than 130 million votes back? No other human being ever got 130 million votes. Do the math…
“Why would you want someone else to decide for you who should run the country? Isn't it the people who should decide who should run the country? That's why Donald Trump… This is why I was selected in 2016.”
Gorka said the organization “has recognized and invited defenders of Western civilization who believed in the truth and believed in the people and the will of Western civilization.” [Albert] Like Einstein, [Ronald] like reagan [Margaret] Thatcher,” he said, underscoring President Trump's commitment to these causes.
“The most important speech he ever gave was in the Warsaw Ghetto, the site of the uprising against fascism,” he said. “And he asked a question. It's a question of the times: Does the West have what it takes to stand with us and protect and defeat those who seek to destroy our civilization?”

Gorka argued that Trump's election was a failed repudiation of the status quo.
“There's connective tissue and similarities between every president, from Washington to Obama,” he said. “They were all part of the political and military elite. From Washington to Obama. They were all congressmen, senators, governors, or retired generals.
He continued, “So what did the American people do? They said, 'Enough is enough.' Enough of these people. We want someone who is untainted by being part of the quote-unquote elite. ”
This difference led to Gorka's decision to work for Trump. “Within 30 seconds of meeting the guy, I knew two things about him: He loved America, and he absolutely hated political correctness. That was enough.”

Mr Gorka argued that there was “absolutely no one who should fear the return of my former boss”, but members of the Oxford Union were not.
“I'll give you a short list,” he said. “First, ISIS, the jihadists, the people who committed the greatest genocide of Jews since the Shoah, since the Holocaust.”
Gorka said President Trump is the greatest threat to terrorists and regimes that support terrorists.
“When we entered the White House, we were being preached to by Barack. [Obama] ISIS, he said, is “just a problem we have to get used to.” We said, “No thanks.”
“And Trump unleashed the power of the US military. And within six months, the physical caliphate, like some kind of caliphate, was gone. parrot.
“Jihadists fear his return. So do Iran's murderous Muslims.”
Gorka talked about the time he and Steve Bannon appealed to the Trump administration about why they should abandon President Obama's Iran deal.
“We explained why, for Israel, for the West, for the stability of the geopolitical order, we should not finance the Iranian state to acquire nuclear weapons, and he broke that agreement. did.
“Iran is afraid of Donald Trump's return, and so are the cartels. So is President Vladimir Putin.”
Gorka told a now-unpublished story about the Wagner Group, a mercenary organization linked to President Vladimir Putin.
“What did my boss do when I told him there were 300 mercenaries running around the Middle East destabilizing the region? He said, 'Kill them.' Kill me now. ' And we did. A four-hour gunfight turned 300 Russians into red mist. And what did that little KGB colonel in the Kremlin do? He wet his pants, so there's nothing. Because he's scared of my boss. ”
He then referred to North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un and said that President Trump's harsh words were “how you deal with dictators.'' You say, “Yes, I'll turn you into a glass pane, Pyongyang.” And what happened? Oh, how interesting. Let's stop launching ballistic missiles into the Sea of Japan. Peace Summit in Singapore. ”
Gorka then turned to domestic policy.
The most ironic and indeed evil aspect of the last three years is what they have done to our nation's sovereignty. Do you think a few hundred boat people are the problem? In the past three years, 8 million illegal aliens have entered our country.
Left-wing organizations like UNHCR, as well as Human Rights Watch, have documented that up to 60 percent of women and girls trafficked across borders have been raped… Raped by cynicism and racism. why? Because they think if you're brown, if you're black, and we give you amnesty, you'll vote for us forever.
Don't forget who Biden is. Biden is the chairman of the Senate committee that inspired the “high-tech lynching” (quote) of black conservative Clarence Thomas. That's the bias of the incumbent in the White House.

Gorka concluded with an article demonstrating President Trump's words and commitment to the American people.
For 23 years, every president, from Clinton to Bush to Obama, has broken promises to the world. We had told Israel that we would move our embassy to Jerusalem and recognize its capital.
For 23 years, every president on both sides of the aisle has broken that promise. President Trump said during his campaign, “We're going to do it.”
When he finally convened the National Security Council at the principle level, rather than bureaucrats or ministers, he told his ministers, “We're doing it now.'' Only three people in his cabinet who worked for him agreed. One of them – and for me, this is heartbreaking. Because I taught Marines at Quantico for two and a half years. I love our devil dog, the so-called “mad dog.” [Jim] Mattis, the Marine, said this in front of the Cabinet. “Sir, don't do that. Don't move the embassy. Don't recognize Jerusalem. You'll start World War III, and I don't have enough Marines to protect the embassy. .”
What did the Commander-in-Chief say to them? he said: “Jim, we're doing it. Why? Because I made a promise to the American people, number one. Number two, we as a nation made a promise to the only democracy in the Middle East that we made 23 years ago. I promised to do it. Oh, finally Jim, it's the right thing to do.”
That's why we need him back. Because, in the words of a Marine, when we were in the White House, our friends felt safe and our enemies feared.

After his persuasive speech, more than 40 percent of the liberal student body ultimately voted against the resolution, Gorka said.
