Trump Throws Stephen Miller Under Bus in Surprise Display of Panic

Would love to see Miller, along with the rest of the Trump sycophants, end up on the front line of the assault on Iran.

Is there a readable story (not a podcast)? The story's Politico link is to a separate story.

It certainly would be news if Miller was losing Trump's ear, because Trump has pretty much handed over all immigration policy to Miller with no restraints since the beginning.

Edit: Thanks replies, here is the link to the transcript: https://newrepublic.com/article/208332/transcript-trump-allies-shiv-stephen-miller-midterm-panic-grows

I read the linked transcript. It's mostly hypothesis about the increasing number of leaks and rumors that Trump is unhappy with the effect of mass deportation on his popularity, which is Miller's big thing. I can believe that, but it's a long way from anything actively throwing him under the bus. It wouldn't be surprising if he did soon though.

Thanks, sorry, I must have scanned the article three times before I saw it.

Miller has the most punchable face I've ever seen. Why has no one beat the snot out of this little goebbles wannabe?

Because he moved into housing at a military site for protection. He doesn't go out because when he's not spitting vile comments out of the white house he's too busy eating dead children in his basement.

Pam Blondi is also in military housing.

He wasn't bullied hard enough.

I ask this question everytime. Most likely because similar to everyone in the Trump administration, these tough cowards are afraid of everything: from sidewalk chalk to their own shadows so they live on military bases out of fear.

They probably already did when he was little. It lead to this.

And then they stupidly left him alive.

How can a supremacist even be bald at that age? If his genes are any good, then where is his head hair?

where is his head hair?

I shit you not, his head hair comes from a spray can

So much confidence!

Immigrants stole his hair.

I have been challenging him to a fist fight for over a year but he doesn’t respond to my messages.

No. Just, no. The WSJ is pretending that trump has object permanence and gives a rat’s ass about anything but himself.

Who are they writing for? The last person in the room clearly said he would lose midterms because of ICE and the demented rapist saw imaginary money leave his accounts. That’s all that’s happened here.

There is nothing - zero, bupkis, nada - to this story and if anything were to happen around any of the topics it would be sheer coincidence.

American journalism such as can be called mainstream has been dead for a decade at least. And it stinks.

The story literally calls what they are doing in the attached podcast "divining". I don't need anyone to read bones on this one.

phutatorius@lemmy.zip · 4 pts · 140d

Not quite nothing: some Trump lackey is briefing journalists against Miller. It might be due to rivalry, or to gauge public reaction to something Trump's thinking out loud about doing. Beyond that, it's like Kremlinology, except Trump's a worse cabbage than even Chernenko.

If it's not a literal statement it's not good enough
