The Sunday after Kellyanne Conway was almost universally rebuked for an on-air sales pitch for the president's daughter, Trump's senior adviser Stephen Milled made the talk show rounds instead, appearing on Meet The Press (above), This Week, and Fox News Sunday (below).

He did well. His points were fine, his delivery was stiff, almost like he was reading it but the answers came too fast for that to be the case in my opinion. Nerves I guess, he’ll only get better.

I only saw him eating Whorehey Stepho’s lunch but he did a great job. A great asset. I could seen Georgie was getting very flustered. I get the feeling he thought Miller would be an easy one to manipulate due to his young (31) Age.

I was very satisfied with his Stephan Miller's presentation. Very well spoken. However, he seemed much more relaxed with Chris Wallace than George Stephanopoulus. Watching Stephen eyes during the presentation, he appeared at times to be reading his answers.

Having said that, for a moment he appeared to have disarmed Stephanopoulos near the begginning. Of course Stephanopoulos, gathered himself. But any case, Stephanopoulos appeared to being laying down a bit throughout the interview. Not sure why. Thinking Stephanopoulos was kinda impressed with Stephen's answers.

good to have notes for reference....just think of the multitudes of problems the kenyan left behind...would be impossible to keep all talking points in order with all that happens everyday.

Stephen thinks very fast and responds quickly and decisively to all the gotcha questions. I was impressed. He’s a real asset to the President’s team.

Murderin’ Joe Scarborough hates Miller, which in itself earns him my admiration.

I disagree that he was stiff. He held himself like an officer standing at the podium in the warroom. All business.

Read his history. His parents were moderate Jews, but he read a lot and became convinced that conservatism was right. He was the only conservative kid in his San Jose, CA high school. He argued and succeeded in getting the liberal school administration to yield to the law that said CA schools should begin the day with the Pledge of Allegiance. Every morning, the Pledge came on the PA system, and every day he was the only student who stood and said the Pledge. He was and is an extraordinary person.

I find it astonishing that he's only 31 years old and was able to handle himself so well on those Sunday morning shows, which can be brutal to even seasoned professionals.

He was obviously a bit nervous and at times his answers were mechanically delivered, but he never let himself get rattled or thrown off his game. I also like his habit of inserting the interviewer's name into his responses as that tactic tends to disarm the interviewer. I liked his response to the last question Chris Wallace had for him (about whether or not Trump was alienating people due to his personal attacks) when he basically retorted that President Trump is determined to represent the millions of hardworking people who voted him in and is not all that concerned about making friends with the establishment politicians.

Watching his eyes, it looked to me very much like he was reading it. But I liked the content and if it goes over okay, I’m fine with the approach. Barry already got us used to the constant-TelePrompTer delivery.

I think he's from Santa Monica, not San Jose.

Stephen Miller is the best person to articulate our side - I thought he was too consistently ‘strident’ yesterday but I re-watched some of his interviews and he's right on...

WE HAVE THE POWER - LET'S USE IT

_____________

“Rule 1: “Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have.”

Actually, we now have a lot of power. No, we don’t have direct power over liberal bastions like Hollywood, the media and academia, but by threatening to use governmental levers of power to impact their tax breaks, copyright laws, and subsidies, we can pound them into submission. And Trump is clearly willing to use all his powers to beat the living liberalism out of our enemy.

Wait, this is where the Fredocons loosen their bow ties and stutter, “Why…we can’t…Professor Wellington Wimpenheimer IV would not approve…it’s so mean…oh, well I never!”

Wake up. Man up. If you ever want to win (and maybe someday even kiss a girl) you need to get real. They hate us, and we either win or we spend the rest of our miserable lives as Boxer the Horse, slaving away to fund the welfare state under the lash of the Left until it decides it’s time to pack us off to the glue factory.

Highly effective. Very disciplined like a soldier. Stayed on message and peppered his remarks with what average Americans would agree with.

Had the TV on as background noise. When Stephen Miller started answering questions I stopped what I was doing and glued my eyes on him. I couldn’t believe how well he spoke. Very impressive. He did appear to be reading due to eye movement but still, he didn’t miss a beat. Sharp dude.
