Author Spills Stephen Miller’s Deluded Private Thoughts on Trump
Key Points:
- Stephen Miller confidently predicted a Republican victory in the midterms last November, citing President Trump's “unprecedentedly successful” first nine months in office as the key reason for defying historical trends.
- Miller claimed Trump had tamed inflation, cut energy prices significantly, passed the largest tax cuts in American history, secured the southern border with zero illegal crossings, and achieved the largest number of deportations ever.
- He also asserted that Trump ended eight wars in eight months and brokered historic peace deals between multiple countries, while fulfilling promises to combat “radical leftism” and restore cultural sanity.
- When asked about the chief of staff's role in telling the president unpleasant truths, Miller rejected the idea, stating Trump desires detailed management and input from all sides at all times.
- Miller’s optimistic and revisionist assessment of Republican prospects in the midterms proved to be disastrously wrong, highlighting a disconnect between his views and political realities.
