Zana’s Reviews > Hate Monger: Stephen Miller, Donald Trump, and the White Nationalist Agenda > Status Update

"Miller was distraught. He thought family separations were necessary. But the crying children had proved too much for Trump."

Ah the good old days of Trump's first presidency 😶

'No centralized database existed to match separated children in ORR custody with parents in DHS custody, let alone deported parents. ORR had been created for unaccompanied minors—not children separated from parents by US authorities. “The intention was for these children to be irretrievable,” says a senior government official with knowledge of the plans. “Not in every case, but in enough cases to frighten people...'

"Meanwhile, a draft of the refugee report leaked to the New York Times. It showed that refugees brought in $63 billion more in government revenue than they had cost over the past decade. ... Miller told officials that the final study had to consider only the costs of refugees, removing fiscal benefits from the math."

'“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. ... They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They're rapists...”

Trump’s comments were widely perceived as racist. But he refused to apologize, telling CNN’s Don Lemon: “Someone’s doing the raping!”'

Every accusation really is a confession

'Schwartz felt guilty for writing [The Art of the Deal]. “It’s almost like I created a monster,” he told PBS’s Frontline. Schwartz spent hundreds of hours listening to Trump. He believes Trump has no values, that he is a sociopath with a binary worldview. He said, “You either dominated or you submitted. You either created and exploited fear or you succumbed to it.”'

'Horowitz wrote that hope and fear are the two strongest weapons in politics. Obama had used hope to become president. “Hope works, but fear is a much stronger and more compelling emotion.” He argued that Republicans should appeal to Americans’ base instincts.'

"In total, [Obama] deported nearly three million people—more than the population of Chicago. The Marshall Project later found that sixty percent of a sample of them were migrants with no criminal conviction. In Miller’s eyes, Obama had not deported enough of them."

'He moved to DC, where his family helped him buy a $450,000 condominium in the Metropole, a Logan Circle building that calls itself “a sleek, urban condo development.” Earning less than $60,000 a year, he bought a new collection of bespoke suits and got to work raising his boss’s profile.'

JESUS

'He criticized a freshman orientation speech by the legendary writer Maya Angelou, whom he described as having “racial paranoia.” He ridiculed the idea that she had any wisdom to offer, arguing that she was recycling “multicultural clichés.”'

'He was romantically involved with a light-skinned Mexican American girl his freshman year. Her old friends at Pegram remember that she didn’t want people to know she was intimate with Miller. “Yovana,” a pseudonym, was conscious of her social image. “She didn’t want to tell people about this ’cause he’s weird and not necessarily attractive,” says her then-roommate.'

He's a literal NAZI
