My point about Miller is that he's far more influential on the details and I suspect he's one of those who steer Trump where Trump says he wants to go.
I suspect that some of the really mean and ugly comes directly from him through Trump. Miller has that track record elsewhere. He picks someone who can front his ideas better than he can and teaches them to sing his tunes. He takes what is already nasty about Trump's methods and views and turns it up to 11 in ways Trump alone would not think to do. It has been said that Steve Bannon is quite jealous of how well Miller can play Trump's strings.
I look forward to a day when Miller, along with others, must stand in the prisoner's dock and hear the record read against him...And then face the jury who would surely hang him twice if possible.
As much as Trump is responsible for most of the deaths and the spread of COVID-19 in the US, Miller is responsible for what has happened in the ICE camps and many other atrocities. He is the policy wonk who gives teeth and claws to the application of Trump's monstrous beliefs.
