White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller decided he’d attack immigration and immigrants by extoling some of the great inventions of the past century, but the reaction he received suggests he should have kept his bigoted thoughts to himself.
Here’s what Miller posted on Twitter/X:
“Someone should write an alternate historical novel where Americans are the first to master the automobile, the first in flight, the first to harness the atom, the first to land on the moon — but just keep going and never open our borders to the entire third world for sixty years.”
“For those who don’t know, the US had negative migration for the half century between the first nonstop transatlantic flight and the moon landing.”
However, not only is Miller historically ignorant, he’s also engaging in blatantly racist language that has no grounding in truth, as many people were quick to remind him.
