How long is Stephen Miller going to be allowed to double dip like this? What happens when both characters are scheduled to appear together? I’m sure his staff is by now adept at applying the necrotic makeup and decorative prosthetic eyebags. I’m sure they were going for “Roy Cohn” when they designed this character but stopped at Emil Bove. It’s a sign of trump’s dementia that he can’t tell the difference. ---

They were interrupted halfway through the Bove transformation and thus this character is born. ---

Hitler would have hired Miller in an instant and no questions asked, based on ideology alone. The reptilian Nazi appearance would be considered a bonus. ---

Yes, assuming Hitler didn’t know he was Jewish and was just enthralled by the way he radiated pure evil. ---
