Stephen Miller Crushes It: Many 'Remarkable and Disturbing' Things Zelensky Said That Led to Epic Blowup


Bob Hoge reporting for RedState 

Tough-talking White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy and Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller has been on a roll lately, dropping brutal hot take after hot take and explaining to the lamestream media just how the Trump administration has been killing it despite the whining liberal naysayers.

You’d therefore have to expect that he’d have something to say about the epic SmackDown at The Oval™ Friday afternoon between President Donald Trump, VP JD Vance, and the ungrateful Volodymyr Zelensky. As we’ve reported, the Ukrainian president seemed to think he held the winning cards and was the man in charge, even though he was sitting in the office of the most powerful man in the world.

We know how that went.

Miller, who’s quite adept at breaking things down in a forceful and succinct manner that drives liberals insane, was deeply unimpressed. Appearing on Fox News’ Jesse Watters show Friday night, the Trump advisor was appalled that the Ukrainian leader seemed to have no interest in an immediate end to the bloodshed:

Miller: There are many remarkable and disturbing things that Zelensky said. He repeatedly rejected President Trump's statement that we should pursue a ceasefire.

Watters: Right. What is that?

Miller [gettin’ fired up]: How could you reject a ceasefire?!

And you know, he kept saying Europe's doing so much more than us. Well, then, what do you need us for? If he's saying Europe's so great, then why are you coming and begging and pleading to us for money and protection and guarantees?

President Trump is a peacemaker—he will fight for peace. He had peace for four years under his previous term, and today we saw what it's like to have a strong leader in the White House, and the whole world saw what it's like to have a strong leader for America.

Watch:

EXACTLY RIGHT @StephenM. If Europe wants to throw money into the fire, then that’s their prerogative. This isn’t our war.

We’ve been extensively covering Friday’s drama—you can find it all here—but here’s a sample:


‘I Want Peace, Not Endless War’: Trump Slams Door on Zelensky


What a day—I don’t recall ever seeing anything like that in my lifetime. I almost—don’t slam me, I said almost—felt sorry for Zelensky as he made a complete fool of himself. He looked entitled, ungrateful, and narcissistic, but he also looked somewhat shocked that he was taken to task. Remember, he’s used to dealing with Joe Biden and the Euroweenies who simply nod when he makes demands and give him what he wants with seemingly no strings attached. He seemed completely unprepared for the force of Trump and JD Vance.

It’s going to be fascinating to see how this plays out. This Russia-Ukraine war is an ugly and tragic thing and needs to be ended yesterday, and Putin is no friend of the USA, but Trump is right that it’s not going to happen if one of the key players is uninterested in negotiating a peace.
Stephen Miller has a way of summing up complex issues quickly, and he did it again here. Zelensky needs to seriously rethink his strategy—that is if he (politically) survives this.
