How Stephen Miller Destroyed Trump’s Second Administration

THE VIEW FROM HERE - On September 1, 2025, this column explained how the vile, anti-Mexican racist Stephen Miller was destroying Trump’s Second Administration . 

Before detailing how Miller’s racist agenda and his psychotic pre-occupation with power without limits resulted in the Blue Tsunami, honorable mention for turning the nation Blue goes to Sen. John Thune.  See  Thune and Hegseth 

After January 2025, Trump was talking about getting rid of the worst of the worse criminal illegals.  Except for the Wokers, Americans both legal and legal Mexicans supported this policy as law abiding people want to be free of criminals.  Stephen Miller, however, has a psychotic hatred of all Mexicans.  Some people speculate that it derives from his family’s reversal of fortune when it had to relocate from their sumptuous home to a small house in Santa Monica’s Mexican area.  Why Miller developed an irrational hatred of Mexicans, who played no role in his family’s financial setback, has no real explanation. Maybe, someone dropped him on his head when he was an infant.

Due to the perfidy of Sen. John Tune, Kristi Noem, noted dog murderer, was head of Homeland Security. On May 21, 2025 during Miller’s hissy fit, verging on a mental breakdown, he demanded that ICE arrest 3,000 illegals a day. Noem tried to make Miller’s dream into a reality.  The only way to move toward such an insane target was to attack peaceful, hardworking Mexicans in Los Angeles.  On June 6, 2025 just over two weeks after the ICE meeting, ICE began its aggressive domestic sweep in LA, by targeting public spaces like Home Depot, where day laborers frequently gathered.  Miller, besotted by his hatred of Mexicans, and Noem, perhaps under the delusion that day laborers were stray dogs, were oblivious to the fact that by attacking Home Depot, they were attacking White homeowners.  Just who, did these imbeciles think, were buying home improvement supplies at Home Depot and then hiring Mexican day laborers?

Then, ICE, who seemed to be under the delusion that they were Gestapo agents and Mexicans were Jews, descended upon Mexican areas of Los Angeles to arrest anyone who looked Mexican.  If ICE beat up an innocent American citizen, they claimed that he/she had attacked ICE agents.  Trump called in the Marines to support Miller’s shock troops and then Trump nationalized the California National Guard.  California’s strong reaction to Miller’s anti-Mexicanism warned the rest of the nation.  Miller and Noem then focused on Minnesota where ICE murdered two citizens, Renée Nicole Good, and Alex Pretti.  Miller’s murderous xenophobia knew no bounds and extended to supporting Hegseth’s murdering of the Caribbean boat people.

Trump’s polls showed that his voters especially Hispanic males were turning against him along with a huge swath of centrist voters.  Being a myopic Histrionic, Trump thought the solution to the loss of voter support was not to have Miller cease and desist.  Instead, he demanded that Texas gerrymander its congressional districts in order to create five safe GOP districts.  One might opinion that psychologically, the magnitude of this insane reaction was similar Hitler’s 1941 Operation Barbarossa’ obsession with Stalingrad which resulted in The Nazis losing WW II.  Trump’s only sane advisor was Chief of Staff Susie Wiley so that there was no one else to explain the sheer folly of demanding a redistricting in order to rig the November 2026 mid-term elections.

Stephen Miller and Peter Hegseth as well as Trump were too dim-witted to realize that all they accomplished was to force the Dems across the entire nation to organize ASAP to oppose Trump at least a year earlier than normal.  California took the lead with its own redistricting to exclude GOP members from Congress as did other states.  Attorney Generals in the blue states met and established strong cooperation to prevent Trump’s ballot stealing.  Eventually, four of Texas’ gerrymandered states voted Blue and not Red; plus, the Texas governor Greg Abbot who had followed Trump’s lead was ousted by Gina Hinojosa, a Tejana, breaking 31 years of single-party Republican control of the Texas governorship.  And, so it went on November 3rd , the Blue Tsunami flowed from Trump’s allowing the psycho racist Stephen Miller take over immigration policy and then ruin Trump’s policy on Iran.

But for Miller’s gross incompetence, there were would have been no backlash over Trump’s deporting criminals so that Trump’s support among Mexicans would have increased.  Without ICE’s violent attacks on law abiding immigrants and US citizens like Renee Good and Alex Pretti, Trump would not have demanded the districting fiasco.  Dems would not have done such a great organizing job so early for the November 2026 mid-term elections.  Thanks to Miller, the Dems were super-well organized for mid-term election.

Because of Miller and his delusion that power need respect no boundaries and that Trump could do anything as he held “all the cards,” Trump did not bother explain Iran’s danger.  Instead, Trump believed that all he had to do was make some pronouncement and everyone would follow him.  Virtually, no one in America knew Iran’s actual threat and why attacks were necessary now.  By again listening the blithering idiots Miller and Hegseth, Trump justified his attack on the absurd notion that an Iranian attack on the USA was imminent.  This falsehood harkened back to George Bush’s belief that Saddam Hussein had nuclear weapons.  Trump’s ignorance of the real problem, i.e., Iran was close to the Breakout Point, was never mentioned.  The US public was given no preparation and the false rationalize which Trump gave was instantly debunked.  Despite the plethora of lies and blood libels about Israel and Jews which issued from both Dems and GOP, almost no one knew Netanyahu’s present goal was to stop Iran from getting to the Breakout Point.

Bibi and Saudi’s MBS Agreed on Regime Change

Because the Iranian people were not armed to revolt, regime change was not the job in summer of 2025 or February 2026.  . The objective was to destroy the nuclear program and all of Iran’s conventional weapons, especially ballistic missiles in order to prevent Iran from getting to the Breakout Point.  The American public was ignorant of Netanyahu’s approach. Instead, Miller and Hegseth re-enforced Trump’s delusion that he was God’s messenger and that the US Constitution was part of the Deep State.  As a Histrionic, Trump is psychologically unable to look two steps ahead, and as a Narcissist, he has a grandiose sense of entitlement.  As a result, Miller and Hegseth convinced Trump that “brawn beats brains” and all it takes is more testosterone to win wars.  Because of the debacle which Trump made of the 2026 attacks on Iran, he undermined Netanyahu.  Had Trump focused on preventing Iran from getting to the Breakout Point, then that objective would have been accomplished.  Then, the US, Israel, The Saudis, and the other Arab states could have taken their time to undermine and overthrow the IRGC, whose goal is the destruction of Israel and the USA.

The elevation of Stephen Miller to Trump’s Chief of Staff shows that Trump is wedded to all-out war – with Americans. See Endnote #1

Endnote #1: If Trump is a victim of a trauma-based repetition compulsion via Projective Identification with Miller, Trump can never break from Miller.  Is Projective Identification real or is it gobble-gook?
