Stephen Miller Is Writing Trump's NATO Speech, Too

President Donald Trump has tapped Stephen Miller, a senior adviser at the White House and an outspoken NATO critic, to draft his speech before the military alliance in Brussels next week, people familiar with the plans tell BuzzFeed News.

The prospect of a speech penned by the 31-year-old anti-globalist adds a new layer of anxiety for NATO allies uncertain about which version of Donald Trump will show up in Belgium’s capital: The one that believes NATO is “no longer obsolete” or the one that thinks the 28-member military alliance is a relic of the past.

“We’re just hoping the remarks don’t turn out to be ‘America First’ on steroids,” a European official whose country will attend the gathering told BuzzFeed News. “But who knows with Miller.”

“The entire idea of a Trump speech on NATO written by Miller is the kind of nightmare scenario that should keep NATO leaders awake well into their 70s,” said Jeremy Shapiro, research director at the European Council on Foreign Relations.

Rhetorical.

Anarchists at work, taking their manifesto directly to NATO.

4. Zealot

imo, not old and mature enough to be anything other than a zealot

One makes judgments about the world, it takes a decade or two to
weigh them, examine their implications, gain countervailing knowledge,
and arrive at some conclusions.

Another dangerous extremist with too much power

I guess he has trust issues/loyalty demands that any new writers can't stomach, so it's same ole same ole. Ole Steverino...wonder where HE'S gonna end up? hmmmm

10. Analysis -

Drumpf will not be deterred from his Russia first and screw the world campaign, no matter what. It is of the utmost importance to him and the only thing other than tax breaks that he actually cares about, because he was promised rewards from Putin and he will do everything humanly possible to make sure he collects. 1 of the 2 primary things he's been told by his puppeteer to accomplish is gutting NATO, the speech by Miller could be one of the tools he uses to jump-start this process.
