Trump White House aide Stephen Miller went on a rant about immigrants that’s drawing scorn from online critics.
Miller claimed during an interview with Fox News anchor Will Cain that immigrants in cities like New York City come from countries that “would have never developed the combustion engine or airplanes” if it weren’t for contact with “the West.”
His comments were part of a rant about democratic socialists who are running for congressional seats and recently won Democratic primaries. Fox News displayed “Is Socialism the Future of the Dem Party?” under Miller while he spoke. Although Cain told Miller his comments were “very well said,” the response from online critics struck a different tone.
“Stephen Miller talks like America was built by pure-blood geniuses instead of generations of immigrants doing the work MAGA now looks down on,” wrote progressive news personality Alex Cole on X.
“When Stephen Miller’s own family came here, his intellectual predecessors saw them as backward [and] shifty Jews who were unable to ever assimilate to this country, and who would never be real Americans,” immigration policy analyst Aaron Reichlin-Melnick reacted.
Former pro tennis player turned political commentator Martina Navratilova attacked Miller, writing, “He really is such a pompous, ignorant f—”
Progressive blogger Matthew Shochat simply pointed out, “the combustion engine was not developed in the US.”
