No matter how low your opinion of Donald Trump and his cronies, somehow they still manage to surprise you. It’s been evident for a while now that Sebastian Gorka, Trump’s top counterterrorism adviser, has at least flirted with fascism. One clue was when Gorka, who was born in London to Hungarian parents, dressed up for one of Trump’s inaugural balls in a black braided jacket popular with the Hungarian far right, pinned with a medal associated with Hungarian Nazi collaborators. Then in February, Jewish newspaper the Forward found that from 2002–2007, when Gorka was active in politics in Hungary, he worked closely with anti-Semitic politicians and wrote for openly anti-Semitic newspapers.

I don’t understand “collaborator” here.
Hungary openly fought on their side —the decision was made for the ENTIRE country.
It seems the author is imposing the WW2 history of Vichy France on Hungary.
The only prominent Hungarian collaborator I know of is George Soros, and that moniker can be imposed on him only insofar as his role vis-a-vis Jews in Hungary is concerned:
He betrayed them.
Hungarian Hussars (light cavalry) of the Austro-Hungarian army around 1914 I think.

King Edward VII as Colonel of Hussar Regiment 12 (The Austrian “King and Emperor” regiment - “kaiserlich und königlich”)
Yes he might well have!
Such princes were often members, or even honorary Colonels (inhaber) of regiments, and light cavalry were extremely fashionable regiments.
Articles about this haves been posted already today and for a looooooooooooong time now. It’s ALL garbage; utter and complete HOGWASH!
Indeed. It has that look.
IT’S ALL A STUPID LIE; CALM DOWN AND STOP BEING KNEE-JERKED AROUND.
Besides which, Dr. Gorka was born in 1970, in England!
His parents weren't even old enough, during the Nazi takeover of Hungary, to be involved in WW II;though they were caught up in the Hungarian Revolution, in 1956, and his father was jailed, by the STINKING COMMIES from the USSR.
Nope...late 19th-early 20th century European military ( usually for the cavalry ) formal, dress uniform.
LOL...he did; as did the actors, in “RURATORIAN” silent films. :-)
These people need a new hobby.
In many regiments in 1914, also field uniform. The Hungarians for instance.
Also Germans.

Michelle Goldberg is a Fake American.
Your comment on leftist hypocrisy is spot on .
love how you included Polynesian guy wearing Polynesian stuff.
Nice link!
You are missing the point... nazi s wore black boots.
His shoes are black?! D’uh.
Reminiscent of a Hussars coat with that frogging on the front. Not Nazi, but very Hungarian.
Gorka must be onto something. There are several hit pieces out on him this week.
Well....to each his own I guess.

Complete nonsense. If anyone is anti-Semitic it is this scribbler and his Communist anti-American cohorts.
>a medal associated with Hungarian Nazi collaborators.
Anyone wearing that filth should not be welcome anywhere except prison.

Nonsense.
