Thanks for the superb piece...Stephen Miller is one vile human. Something in his brain isnt wired right. And he has a child...which is scary.

Thanks! I didn't know he had a child. His jurisdiction's local child services should probably be looking into this.

Agreed

Haha! They should. He’s married with a daughter I believe.

He has a child? The poor soul will grow up damaged goods. And a wife? I can only imagine the Stepford mold she popped out of. I had Miller tagged as a major incel.

I did, too.

Like Stephen Miller, my great-grandparents also came to America during the Russian Purge of the Jews. How I came to where I am and he arrived at the polar opposite of everything I believe in is one of life's true mysteries. I can only assume there's a great deal of self-loathing involved. Thanks for an excellent essay.

Thanks for sharing that. One of the reasons I argue so loudly in favor of immigration is that I love the underlying stories. My family was actually a very early arrival, way back on the first ships from England on my mom’s side. My history and demographics say I should be a Trumpster! Yuk, I shudder at even the thought of it. But I love the immigration story. To me, it is very clear that all immigrants are foundationally important, and vital to the nation. Thanks again.

Great article about a very bad man. Why is he so hateful??

Thanks! I don’t think I have an answer to the whys. I’m not a psychologist, but my personal theory is that he probably didn’t have access to AR type weapons as a kid, so he is doing this instead as an adult.

Jeezus that’s scary. And probably accurate. 😖

Charles, Don’t even go there. I can only imagine the carnage from Miller with an AR-15 as an adolescent or adult. (The latter used as a marker of biological age, not maturity or brain development.)

Or possibly just a self loathing Jew. Great piece!

My thoughts exactly, he won’t be the one pulling the trigger, he’ll help orchestrate federal troops to do it instead. I wonder if he was never invited to the beach parties or was to scared to go into the ocean and learn to surf, something made him feel left out. He’s definitely a worm!

Once again great writing Charles!

Thank you! I’d rather not think about the prospect of Miller at a beach party! :-)

I like how you tied Stephen Miller to Transylvania. I have commented elsewhere for some months about him, referring to him as Darth Nosferatu, because why not mix pop culture metaphors? And I can see him as Max Schreck playing Count Orlok. Humor aside, he is one of the most insidious people inside the Trump camp, second perhaps only to JD Vance because Vance is so inexperienced, bumbling and clueless that if Trump is elected he will almost certainly end up as President and will be low hanging fruit for the machinations of The Heritage Foundation, techbro billionaires and Christian Nationalists, among others. Thank you for highlighting this very real threat to our country.

If I had known about your reference to Darth Nosferatu I would have borrowed it! With credits of course. :-) He has a distinct vampire air to him.

We must win this election because I don't want to witness the battle between Vance and Miller for worst human. Thanks for reading.

Please use it at will, credited or not. If I had the editing skill, I’d create videos of him morphing into Nosferatu and lurking behind Vance, whispering in his ear.

Stephen Miller and JD Vance are two cunning and vile creatures. I’m not surprised at all that each is now positioned as they are, as if appearing on the menu of hate as “Pairs well with Trump, more than a slight nose of white supremacy, with obvious nuances of nutty lies, threats, and plots. High acid content, sure to turn the stomach.”

He fancys himself a lawyer, hes not.

That's why half of the executive orders won't stand up to Legal scrutiny because he wrote them

Signs point to the majority not holding up in court. But now we have an enforcement problem because the Orange Puff of Hate doesn’t respect the constitution.

Yeah we have a lot of problems coming our way and we are not very good at organizing around those problems at the speed they're presenting themselves

Miller and Musk the head of the beast. Take them and you kill the beast.

I just googled him. He has 3 children! Dear Lord. What kind of a woman births to such a creature

I think more like Goebbels and his wife.

If I wanted to “meet Stephen Miller” I’d just hang upside down in a cave since that’s clearly where the man (?) lives most of the time. Unless he sleeps in a coffin, which is certainly possible

My first sighting of Miller in 2016 I knew he was evil personified. Satan’s own helper. I came across a picture of Megamind, check it out. He must have been the model for this cartoon creature.
