Former White House adviser Sebastian Gorka called The Atlantic a "rag" and "propaganda arm" of the Democratic National Committee after the news outlet published a story claiming President Donald Trump called U.S. service members killed in World War I "losers" and "suckers."
"There is one oath of office, there is one role, the president takes more seriously than any other, and that is his responsibility to the brave men and women who stand on the wall every single day to protect us," Gorka told Newsmax TV's "Stinchfield." "The men and women who die wearing the cloth of our republic, who he has to call up, whose parents he has to call up when they are injured or killed in action – and this disgusting rag, 'The Atlantic,' which called Obama the greatest terrorist hunter – are we talking about the same terrorist hunter who asked his Cabinet whether we should kill [Osama] bin Laden when we found him?
