Donald Trump made a pointed comment about his deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller that may have come across as a joke, but was taken very seriously by many people on social media.
During a press conference on Wednesday with FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi, Trump took a moment to mention Miller, who has become his chief propagandist during his second term in office.
“I want to thank Stephen Miller... I love watching him on television. I would love to have him come up and explain his true feelings. Maybe not his truest feelings. That might be going a little bit too far,” Trump said with a laugh.
Trump then thanked Miller for “doing an unbelievable job,” and added, “The people of this country love you, I’ll tell you, and they love what you say about crime and stopping crime.”
Did you notice the slight dig Trump made toward Miller?
Well, lots of people on social media did and, boy, did they have thoughts. Lots of them.
