Continuing the discussion from [NYC Mayor election thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/nyc-mayor-election-thread/1020085/99): > [@NYC Mayor election thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/nyc-mayor-election-thread/1020085/99): > > miller is a creepy weirdo. He looks like a bond villan’s henchmen. Gives me the creeps. I just did an image search on Heinrich Himmler, then on Stephan Miller. There really is an uncanny resemblance. If Miller grew a mustache, they could be brothers. ---

I’ve seen those comparisons before. Maybe they’re related: you never know. Another one of trump’s henchmen, emil bove, is also weird, creeoy, unsettling, pick your own adjective. ---

Stephen Miller was delivered straight out of Central Casting as Nazi Flunky #2.

Great comment. Miller’s uncle wrote about their family fleeing to America to build a better life and how Stephen is a betrayal of that legacy.

I’m not at all surprised about miller’s background. He is an evil hypocrite. ---

> [@Just\_Asking\_Questions](#): > > Not Himmler: Goebbles You’re right, he does look more like Goebbles. However, functionally, he is more of a Himmler type. He wants a holocaust, but for brown people not Jews. Yet. Yes, I know he’s Jewish himself. I have no trouble believing that the list of people he hates includes himself. ---

I also suspect like so many others from the surprise leopard eating thread, he doesn’t much care what happens to others like him. He only cares about he himself. And he’s quite convinced he’s guaranteed to be spared. He might even be right. Maybe. ---

As long as we’re tossing names into the hat, I have [another one](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinhard_Heydrich) for you: > Reinhard Tristan Eugen Heydrich … was a German high-ranking SS and police official during the Nazi era and a principal architect of the Holocaust. He held the rank of _SS-Obergruppenführer und General der Polizei_. Many historians regard Heydrich as one of the darkest figures within the Nazi regime. **Adolf Hitler described him as “the man with the iron heart.”** (Emphasis added.) Maybe not as good a physical resemblance as Goebbels, but a pretty good match personality-wise. ---

> [@OttoDaFe](#): > > Maybe not as good a physical resemblance as Goebbels, but a pretty good match personality-wise. Heydrich was fare more urbane and suave (with a reputation of being a real ‘ladies man’), and a much better planner than Stephen Miller, who is mostly a loud-mouthed propagandist. Many of the tactics that Miller has pushed for have actually backfired on the Trump administration, although admittedly pushing the legal envelope is kind of the point. Stranger ---

Noted. I did realize that I should probably have used “policy-wise” (how competently the policies are being carried out is another issue), but the edit window had closed. ---
