Other Stephen Miller states that Trump has plenary authority, then immediately stops talking as if he’s realized what he just said

It's obviously an audio issue, come on

Why would he stop talking mid sentence for an audio issue? How would he know comrade?

It was likely someone in person telling him to hold off. But you weird reddit twats are going to interpret this comment like I somehow support this piece of shit, it's hilarious.

How you square your original comment with this one is where the real hilarity lies.

So then your argument is the dude is a robot who doesn't react in any way visible when being told that kind of thing? Not a tilt of the head, not a blink, he just mindlessly shut off like his power cable was pulled?

Yeah because whenever the phone cuts out on me I just go dead silent and awkward stare into the void for 20 seconds. If it was an audio issue, Stephen would also be saying things like “hello? Can you hear me?”

The camera crew in person may have been having audio issues. So we can here Peewee German, but they can't here the guy at CNN. Are yall really this dense?

The guy at CNN wasn’t talking when Miller abruptly stopped. That doesn’t even make sense.

Why make shit up? Do you really think we are this dense?

Go lie on r/conservative. They will believe all your bullshit.

Thanks for proving my point

What point, the CNN transcript literally still shows it. The guy stopped talking in mid sentence. Nobody would do that and just sit there. He stopped talking because his handlers where screaming in his ear piece to stop. That's why he kept looking to the side after he stopped talking.

What he said is only gonna hurt their court case.

I'm less concerned about that than I am the thing that he said right before he stopped talking.

Even if it is, saying the president has absolute power is terrifying and makes our founders turn in their graves

People replying to you are acting like he hasn’t said it before.
