[question everything]

(Reuters) -U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday that Stephen Miller, his deputy chief of staff, was a frontrunner to be potentially named as national security adviser following the departure of Mike Waltz.

Trump ousted Waltz on Thursday and named Secretary of State Marco Rubio to the position on an interim basis. While U.S. officials say they expect Trump to be in no hurry to fill the job on a permanent basis, a number of candidates have emerged.

"I'm going to be naming somebody," Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One as he flew back to Washington from a weekend at his Florida club.

He said he expected to fill the job within about six months, and it could be Miller.

1. Yikes. Miller is unhinged, but also dangerous.

I think he is playing the role of puppet master already.

3. I don't know about "puppet master" calling the shots, but he is sure a Trump whisperer.

I would put him more along the lines of Wormtongue...... but with TSF being far more malleable than Theoden.

I didn't come up with it, but I enjoyed someone else calling Miller "Pee Wee German".

2. He already is. This would just make it official. nt

4. Kiss Trump's oversized ass and you'll go far

5. I would hope

enough sane Republicans as scarce as they are would stop that .

[onenote]

9. Not much they can do. The job doesn't require Senate confirmation.

[timms139]

16. Confirmation no

but they would have some leverage with the things Trump wants done in the senate .Doing something at this point is better than letting the Trump Cabal of idiots placed in positions that will certainly take us further down the rabbit hole .

6. well, he is the least qualified ass kisser

so he is a shoo in!

[JohnnyRingo]

7. In six months?!

Will it really take him that long to audit donations to see who wants it bad enough?

Miller could never pass congressional scrutiny.

8. He's running out of Nazi sycophants

The well is running dry.

12. With his statement that he's not running in 2028, is this Trump grooming Miller for the role of heir apparent?

13. Translation Miller Wants power in national security probably to imprison Democrats. Also, Putin wants this.

Translating from feral mushbrain to English is a whole skill set
