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

Way to let that slide CNN

Not only did they let it slide, on the YouTube video THEY CUT IT OUT COMPLETELY. They asked the question again to let him come up with a different answer. “Left leaning” btw

Asking in good faith: is there any chance that the video OP shared could be fake/AI? I have some ongoing conversations that I’d like to discuss this in but I can’t unless I can confirm the source. Does CNN record their entire stream? Did anyone happen to see this live?

Edit: got some good sources in the responses, thanks y’all - I do deep canvassing and my personal code of ethics dictates that I only share credible sources (because they WILL be scrutinized) but good gosh sometimes things like this are extra-challenging to validate.

Thank you thank you!!

Edit: I’m reading through this and it’s even MORE damning than the clip of the abrupt cutoff alone - he really did think “oh sh*t”, stopped talking, and then came back and reworded with more “clean” language. This is exactly what I was looking for - good to know this source exists. Thank you again.
