2. Explains why Stephen Miller wasn't fired by Kelly

It seemed that Miller, being such an extreme white supremacist, would have to be fired so that a modicum of respectability could be restored to the White house. I wondered what was taking so long.

Now it's been revealed - Kelly is just as extreme as Miller on race and immigration.

The scary part is that Kelly and Miller now have control over Trump, as least as much control as anyone has ever had.

They were not about to let him move forward with signing a bill for the DACA kids "with love," as he had said he would do before all the world just a week ago Tuesday.

They set up that Cottonmouth Rattlesnake ambush of Durbin and Graham in the oval and will not let trump backtrack out of the shithole. I think trump is not free to "negotiate." Kelly put the clamps on him and he and Miller are pulling his strings. The old dotard is so clueless on policy, on legislative processes, and is entirely without any convictions, it's easy for them to do.

Expect to see more of Kelly using that Cottonmouth Rattlesnake when extra coercion is needed to get the old dotard in line.
