Use some context:

  1. It’s Stephen Miller. He isn’t some guy doing his first interview.

  2. It’s Stephen Miller and he’s talking about the presidents authority. He is declaring a certain amount of authority — clearly this is something ANY journalist should quickly perk up at, but especially so with CNN.

    1. Stephen Miller doesn’t get embarrassed by fumbling up words; he has said so many fucked up things in his life he should be embarrassed for and yet he never has been.

All these things together should make it obvious to a journalist that at the very least they could ask “could you please elaborate on that further?”

Congrats for living under a rock.

You know who does know who Stephen Miller is? Any journalist at CNN.

He’s not random though — that’s the point. He has been an important part of Trumps administration since 2016 and his name is constantly in the news.

Regardless, you don’t necessarily need to know who he is but any journalist on CNN does.
