1. Who is John Miller?

[gratuitous]

3. The alias Trump used when serving as his own PR flack

Do you know how much those PR guys want? Trump didn't get rich by writing checks to people who work for him.

4. His alter ego it seems.

6. Trump's alter ego

"The voice is instantly familiar; the tone, confident, even cocky; the cadence, distinctly Trumpian. The man on the phone vigorously defending Donald Trump says he’s a media spokesman named John Miller, but then he says, “I’m sort of new here,” and “I’m somebody that he knows and I think somebody that he trusts and likes” and even “I’m going to do this a little, part time, and then, yeah, go on with my life.”

A recording obtained by The Washington Post captures what New York reporters and editors who covered Trump’s early career experienced in the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s: calls from Trump’s Manhattan office that resulted in conversations with “John Miller” or “John Barron” — public-relations men who sound precisely like Trump himself — who indeed are Trump, masquerading as an unusually helpful and boastful advocate for himself, according to the journalists and several of Trump’s top aides."

16. Alter ego? More of an ego annex.

21. Who is John Miller?

A golfer? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Miller

2. We knew Trump was a coward. It seems John Miller and John Barron are too.

I wonder if he has other out there no one has discovered yet.

[SunSeeker]

12. What's really creepy is he named his baby son with Melania "Barron."

[bullwinkle428]

14. That was the "tell" for me - he clearly loves the name "Barron"!

[SunSeeker]

18. Yep. nt

[3catwoman3]

22. Barron Trump does sound awfully pretentious.

I remember thinking, at the time, that if I were Marla Maples and the father of my out of wedlock daughter were a prominent and flamboyant wealthy man, I would not have named her after a world famous jewelry store. Tacky, tacky.

5. Have anymore info on this John Miller?

9. All I know is that John Miller is one hell of an actor

He's been absolutely tremendous in his latest tv role. He portrays a narcissistic psychopath running for president. It's far fetched and really pushes my ability to suspend disbelief at times, but the man really sells it.

8. link to 1991 recording obtained by The Washington Post’s Marc Fisher.

In a 1991 recording obtained by The Washington Post’s Marc Fisher, a man who claims to be a spokesman for Donald Trump named John Miller tells a People magazine reporter about Trump’s first divorce, his romance with France’s future first lady and his messy breakup with Marla Maples.

10. Of all the things that didn't bite him, he finally seems to be turning this one into something.

[gwheezie]

11. Don't be mean

How can you expect a man with tiny baby hands to hold a phone for so long?😂

[tyne]

13. Carswell

Did anyone see the Megyn Kelly interview with Carswell tonight?

Carswell claims that she "lost" the tape 25 years ago...that Trump took it...and that he released it to the WPost

[madaboutharry]

17. He gave it to the Washington Post

and then goes on the Today Show and tells Savanah Guthrie and Matt Lauer that it isn't him?

If that is the case, then he needs psychiatric help.

[marble falls]

15. What did John Miller know and when did he know it? And where the hell is his birth certificate????

[Major Nikon]

19. I suspect Trump had him Vince Fostered

[marble falls]

20. Nooooot again, but John, we hardly knew ye!
