Critics Rip Trump Crony Stephen Miller Over Incredibly Hypocritical Claim About 'The Law'

Trump's own actions stand in direct contradiction to Miller's claim.

Stephen Miller, a close adviser to President Donald Trump, on Wednesday declared that “no one is above the law.” And while few would disagree with that, in concept, Miller’s critics were quick to point out that Trump’s own actions stand in direct contradiction.

Miller, who is White House deputy chief of staff for policy and author of Trump’s hard-line anti-immigrant agenda, said on Fox News that the coming days would see a “massive scale-up” of actions aimed at deporting undocumented immigrants.

He warned that the Justice Department would also pursue civil and criminal charges against Americans who try to shelter the immigrants, including elected officials.

“The law is clear,” Miller said. “No one is above the law.”

Trump is a convicted felon as a result of a criminal case in New York, and he was facing federal prosecution in several other cases that were dropped after a Supreme Court ruling on presidential immunity and his presidential win.
