Stephen Miller’s Uncle Trashes Nephew: ‘Could No Longer’ Stay Silent on Trump’s ‘Inexcusable Cruelty’
Dr. David S. Glosser, the uncle of White House senior policy adviser Stephen Miller, spoke to CNN on Tuesday in order to elaborate on the critical op-ed he wrote about his nephew.
When John Berman asked Glosser why he wrote his piece for Politico, he explained that he couldn’t sit by anymore after watching the Trump administration’s “increasingly hostile posture towards desperate people trying to enter the country.” Glosser specifically made reference to Trump’s now-rescinded policy of separating migrant children from their families at the U.S. southern border.
“I had been posting my opinions on Facebook for the past year or two, but various members of the family as well as myself thought I could no longer…have a quiet voice on the subject in light of the incarceration of all these children,” Glosser said. “This was an act of inexcusable cruelty.”
Glosser continued to say that “had any other country done this at a time of war, it would have been considered a war crime.” He also once again compared the plight of migrants to the Miller family when they immigrated to America in order to escape anti-semitic persecution.
In terms of what he hopes to achieve, Glosser said he wanted to open peoples’ minds to the possibilities of what America can do to help desperate people around the world. As for whether he expects to change his nephew’s minds though, Glosser said “No. It appears he made his entire political and personal career on this single issue for reasons that I don’t really know.”
