'You had one job': Internet roasts ex-Trump adviser's hilariously botched attempt to discredit Wolff

Former Trump adviser Sebastian Gorka on Monday published an editorial in The Hill in which he tried to discredit Michael Wolff, the author of the bestselling book Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House.

However, Gorka seems to have inadvertently undermined President Donald Trump's claim that Wolff was not given wide access to the White House to report on his book.

"When I met Michael Wolff in Reince Priebus’ office, where he was waiting to talk to Steve Bannon, and after I had been told to also speak to him for his book, my attitude was polite but firm: 'Thanks but no thanks,'" writes Gorka. "Our brief encounter reinforced my gut feeling that this oleaginous scribe had no interest in being fair and unbiased."

This statement contradicts Trump's insistence last week that he "authorized Zero access to White House (actually turned him down many times) for author of phony book." After all, if Trump had turned down Wolff's request to report from the White House multiple times, why would Gorka have been instructed to talk with Wolff -- and why would Wolff have been allowed to hang out in former White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus' office?

The internet erupted in mockery at Gorka unwittingly confirming Wolff's own account of how he got access to the White House, while simultaneously kneecapping his former boss.
