Former Republican strategist Rick Wilson described how a social post knocked down one of President Donald Trump‘s longest and closest advisers — and sent MAGA into a rage this week.
The co-founder of the anti-Trump group, The Lincoln Project, revealed in a Substack post Thursday that, after Miller delivered a bigoted attack on Democratic Texas Senate hopeful Rep. James Talarico, the Democrats swung back.
The moment stung for Trump’s MAGA coalition — and Miller — becoming a “hard punch in the mouth that that soft-handed sadist Stephen Miller has obviously needed since middle school.”
“The official Democratic Party account looked at Stephen Miller, the White House deputy chief of staff, the architect of ICE thugs murdering American citizens in our streets, the Grima Wormtongue of the Trump White House immigration policy, the majordomo of white nat modern apartheid fantasies, and told him, in five tidy words: ‘shut up, you ugly —-,’” Wilson wrote.
“That’s it. That’s the tweet. Five words. No policy. No nuance. No 14-part thread with a land acknowledgment quote bolted onto the front, nothing soft or nurturing or politically correct,” Wilson wrote.
He called the Democrat’s clapback moment “the sight of a man who built an entire political religion around the public performance of cruelty to others discovering through the glorious avenue of social media that cruelty has a return address.”
“And reader, I want you to enjoy the rich, full-bodied irony of what happened next, because it is a clarifying moment in American politics, one on par with the invention of the hot mic,” Wilson added. “Stephen Miller’s feelings got hurt.”
Miller might be used to just firing off insults or brutal comments, Wilson said, but this time it was different.
“For once, the Democrats brought a gun to the gunfight,” Wilson wrote.
