Trump Adviser Calls President’s Oval Office Meltdown ‘One of the Great Moments in the History of American Diplomacy’

 

Stephen Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff for policy, took a victory lap on Friday night after President Donald Trump berated Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky earlier in the day.

Zelensky, Trump, and Vice President JD Vance spoke in front of reporters in the Oval Office in what had been a ho-hum meeting that turned wildly contentious. The Ukrainian president asked Vance how the U.S. could be sure that Russian President Vladimir Putin could be trusted to agree to the stipulations of a cessation of hostilities. Vance responded by accusing Zelensky of being “disrespectful,” and both he and Trump berated their guest. Afterward, Secretary of State Marco Rubio told Zelensky to leave the White House, as Trump had canceled an upcoming joint presser.

That night, Miller appeared on Jesse Watters Primetime on Fox News, where he praised his boss in no modest terms.

“I don’t think anybody had any idea Zelensky would be so impertinent, so disrespectful, so insulting to the United States of America,” he began. “But this is one of the great moments in the history of American diplomacy. The way that President Trump and J.D. Vance stood up for American interest on the world stage, the way that President Trump befriended Americans after years of being fleeced and abused and taken advantage of and taken for granted, millions of American hearts swelled with overflowing pride today to watch President Trump put Zelensky in his place.”

Miller went on to claim that “Americans have suffered economically funding this war” and slammed Zelensky for allegedly lecturing Trump.
