Stephen Miller delivered a scathing, authoritarian-style speech targeting demonstrators protesting President Trump’s actions, labeling them as “Communists” and threatening a further military response. This move, however, is likely a display of weakness, despite the presence of military officials during the address. Polls indicate significant voter opposition to Trump’s actions, suggesting Miller’s hubris has become a key vulnerability. According to New Republic staff writer Monica Potts, Trump is actively consolidating power, and the opposition should recognize the lack of public support for his agenda.

Stephen Miller erupts in a manic, fascist rant. That’s the claim, and honestly, it’s hard to disagree. Based on the available information, it seems this is just business as usual. But the more interesting part of this whole story, the one that deserves more attention, is the revelation of a significant weakness.
What does that weakness entail? Well, it’s pretty clear from the way Miller operates, and the things people are saying, that there are a few distinct possibilities. Some would say it is his lack of physical prowess. His inability to physically carry out his twisted agendas is, ironically, one of his core weaknesses. Others focus on his personality and personal relationships, like his marriage. Then of course there are the more obvious ones, like the fact that he’s a cuck and a wimp in the public eye. Some people have noted his insecurities as a major liability. They say he’s a man whose physical appearance belies his inner turmoil, a “walking embodiment of weakness.”
Then there’s the political vulnerability. The man, it seems, is utterly incapable of handling any kind of pushback. When confronted with dissent, or even just minor inconveniences, he seems to utterly lose it, and resorts to these unhinged, fascist rants. People are pointing out his high school history. They are talking about how he once jumped a fence to “prove” men were better than women at running. They see in Miller someone driven by personal inadequacy and a deep-seated need to dominate.
There’s also the argument that Miller’s weakness lies in his obsession with control, specifically racial purity. Some say his influence is responsible for the Los Angeles, and DC ICE roundups. His high school racism seems to have morphed into a full-blown ideological crusade. This single-minded focus on advancing his vision of racial purity in America is his driving force.
A lot of what we’re seeing feels like a distraction, a deliberately crafted firehose of bullshit. This kind of behavior is designed to make everything a distraction. The point is, these tactics are intended to make us pick and choose which issues to focus on. That’s where the weakness lies. It’s not just about the rant itself. It’s about what the rant reveals: a deeply insecure individual, reliant on an ideology of hate, who can’t handle opposition.
The comments indicate that Miller is not just a figurehead; he is the ideologue. Trump, in this view, is just the conduit for Miller’s vision. And Miller’s vision is one of division, hate, and a complete disregard for the values of a just society. Many people fear that Miller will continue to pursue his agenda, even if Trump is gone.
The overall picture paints a portrait of an individual driven by deep-seated insecurities. These are the very things that fuel his rantings and his political actions. It’s the “big weakness” that seems to be on full display. He’s a sniveling, conniving worm, who, when faced with pushback, has the dignity of a toddler. In other words, Miller’s greatest weakness may just be himself.
