(60,010 posts)Even worse than Conway.
For 12 minutes he complained that Tapper would not give him any time to say what he had been saying over and over again for 12 minutes.
Miller believes what he says. he is dangerous anywhere near power.

(58,724 posts)What would you expect him to say?
SunSeeker
(51,665 posts)Miller is a member of Trump's inner circle. Why would you not want to question him about the book? If for no other reason than to see his demeanor?
oberliner
(58,724 posts)He was obviously going to say what he said.
Perhaps that was the point?
SunSeeker
(51,665 posts)oberliner
(58,724 posts)Ok - so Stephen Miller is a deranged sycophant.
But so is Jeffrey Lord and Kayleigh McEnany and the various other Trump-bots that CNN has had on the air as paid pundits.
SunSeeker
(51,665 posts)oberliner
(58,724 posts)That could have also confirmed the book and would've shown how dangerous and RW the people running the country actually are.
I think the focus should be less on cheeseburgers and television and more on what the people in the administration who actually care about policy are planning to try to do to this country moving forward.
SunSeeker
(51,665 posts)He tried to have a normal interview with the nutjob. Miller would not answer questions, he just went on a tirade. Tapper's interview documented that the president sent a deranged Nazi policy adviser to make a scene on a cable news show and then spent his morning watching said show and gleefully tweeting about it.
I think that does show how dangerous and RW the people running the country actually are.
oberliner
(58,724 posts)I just would have gone with a different line of questioning that he might have been more receptive to answering. This seemed like the kind of orchestrating fighting that CNN does with its panels a lot (or at least it did with Jeffrey Lord and Kayleigh M).
blogslut
(38,011 posts)Stephen Miller was on that show because of the book. Hell the WH probably insisted he be there to condemn the book. That was Miller's trick for the day and His Master watched and tweeted "good boy" as soon as he saw it.

(3,335 posts)wrong. Glad though that Tapper didn't just sit there and allow him to demagogue as he tried to do. Looks like CNN is taking a new tactic; fighting back. Good for them.

BigmanPigman
(51,626 posts)I saw the interview on You Tube and made the choice to read the comments. I am scared to death since half of them thought that Miller "destroyed and "owned" Tapper and called CNN the "fake news network". One third thought he was on drugs. Obviously they haven't been paying attention or else they'd have known that this is how he really is all the time! I WISH it would be that easy to excuse his Nazi-esque personality and blame drugs. We are going to have a tough road ahead of us to reach these people before the midterms. I am so depressed now. This makes me realize we have to fight tooth and nail. RESIST! Michael Moore wrote a very doable list of 10 things we can do to stop the Moron. He wrote it last Feb and it is needed now more than ever.

Hahaha! Horrifying.
nolabear
(41,991 posts)He was hired because he appealed to hm. Because he made sense. He represented something 45 wants to be seen as right and strong and powerful. Never forget that.
Trump wants to be a dictator, and is upset daily that the federal government will not bend to his whims. That's what Miller wants also. They both want a lapdog stenographer press.

(27 posts)If I were a legitimate news network, these jokers wouldnt get the time of day.
He knew what his brief was. Retake control of the news cycle and even though he made a buffoon of himself, he and Trump have succeeded in this.
I just watched the "interview" on YouTube. Miller just went off on his own tangent, kissing up to his fuhrer, refused to answer Tapper's questions.
All in all, a total jerk. It would be a big mistake to let him come back.

"Miller became a committed conservative after reading Guns, Crime, and Freedom, a book by National Rifle Association Chief Executive Officer Wayne LaPierre".
That tells me all I need to know about his intellectual level.

(4,033 posts)with Miller. I was cringing through most of the interview and cringed even more when he mispronounced the word dynasty. Instead of pronouncing it with the y being a long I, he pronounced it with a short I sound, think dinner, becoming dinasty.
Wednesdays
(17,404 posts)Much like in the British Isles "vikings" sounds more like "vickings."
However, there's nothing in Miller's background that would suggest he would pronounce it that way, except to sound like a pretentious snob.

..... his eyes open and shut in a very nonchalant way... often closing but only half way... not a full human blink. Like the doll with the slow and unpredictable blinking eyes as you move it about.
It is like this Miller dude huffs solvents of some sort... like maybe xylene or toluene, just before he gets up on stage to go into his spiel and diatribes of how much of a political and financial genius tr-dump really is.
Miller is tr-dump's Nazi fan-boy - no heart, no feelings, total lack of anything that might resemble a conscience.
They are both an extreme danger to the continuation and perpetuation of American Democracy.
