Stephen Miller emerges as top contender for Trump's next national security adviser
Marc Caputo

President Trump's top policy adviser, Stephen Miller, is garnering buzz inside the White House as a top candidate to be the next national security adviser, five sources familiar with the situation tell Axios.

Miller — the deputy chief of staff and the brain behind Trump's controversial immigration crackdown — is one of the president's longest-serving and most-trusted aides.

Miller's name surfaced shortly after Trump removed Mike Waltz as national security adviser on Thursday and nominated Waltz to become the next United Nations ambassador.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is temporarily taking over Waltz's responsibilities, but sources familiar with his thinking say he's busy enough running the State Department.

Miller already is the administration's Homeland Security adviser, and is an aggressive defender of the administration's legal push for immediate deportations of unauthorized immigrants without court hearings.

POS will use "national security" as a catch-all excuse for everything

1. He has the cold, dead eyes of a serial killer.

Someone needs to check his basement.

[kentuck]

2. He's running out of people he can trust.

To be loyal.

3. He's too biased to be any good at the job.

5. Pee Wee German

6. Herr Heinrich Miller is kicked upstairs in the Fuhrerbunker.

More evil Nazi power to continuously terrorize Amerika.

[Tarzanrock]

7. Time for a hat for Herr Miller with a skull and cross-bones

Just like that other guy who was the 4th Reichfuhrer of the Schutzstaffel; Chief of the Kriminalpolizei and Minister of the Interior; and later the Commander of the Replacement Army and General Plenioptentiary for the Administration of the Reich.

9. Heaven help us!

[Deuxcents]

12. I get you but heaven didn't help Germany in the '30's.

I think we’re in for a time we never dreamed would happen here and it’s gonna take us to a place we’ve never had to go before and there’s no one like the Allies to help us. People like Steven Miller are scary but in high places of power and it’s gonna take some serious resistance to turn things around. I worry for my grandkids

[Ritabert]

13. Good point.

[Kid Berwyn]

14. Meanwhile Putin laughs all the way to Alpha Bank.

A paper bag containing greasy cat poo is way more intelligent than Stephen Miller. Better looking, too.

[allegorical oracle]

15. Wonder if he knows how unpopular he is. Bet he does and enjoys it. So, next

question: Does he have a food taster?

[Retrograde]

16. Dang it - National Security Advisor does not require Senate confirmation

I would have loved to see Democratic senators drag him out into the daylight and ask him some pointed quesitons - if he didn't burst into flames first.

17. On the bright side, the worse his picks the bigger, sooner their implosion.
