"SNIP........

It begins with Miller chiding Tapper for not giving him "three minutes to tell the truth about the President of the United States."

Tapper reminded Miller that he gave him a three-minute filibuster at the top of the interview.

"You gave me two minutes," Miller complained. "You should be ashamed of yourself. Honestly."

Fed up, Tapper shot back, "This is why they don't put you out on TV. Okay? This is the reason."

............SNIP"

1. ahaha

[underpants]

2. I want my THREE MINUTES

I noticed he mention that specific amount of time more than once. He wanted a nice set of video clips of him blasting CNN.

[calimary]

36. His version of two scoops perhaps?

[tenderfoot]

3. Here's the tweet...

4. Miller is a Freak

Get him out of Our House!

[Tipperary]

5. I swear that guy is on some sort of drug. The flat affect. The neck twitches.

What was that?

[Jeroen]

8. Chrystal Nazi

[Tipperary]

11. He is scary. Yes I remember that pic.

[Scarsdale]

18. Pee Wee Herman

look alike, except Pee Wee is likeable. This Miller guy has dead eyes.

[maddiemom]

34. EXACTLY like Robert Shaw's description of a shark's eyes in Jaws.

[Sophia4]

38. Right!

[murielm99]

19. That picture had been debunked by

snopes, but I do not believe their assessment. Usually, I swear by them. I refuse to give this horrible person the benefit of the doubt.

I have seen people like him, giving these signs in a sneaky way, then snickering at everyone who calls them out for doing that. I agree with your post and I would not trust this little shit as far as I could throw him.

[womanofthehills]

22. Snopes has been wrong

[applegrove]

24. Deleted my post. Until proven otherwise I will go with Snopes.

[murielm99]

25. Normally I would agree with you.

My community had a problem with white power types and racist skinheads about twenty years ago. Having dealt with them up close and personal, I will trust my gut on this one.

I do respect your decision.

[applegrove]

26. Okay. Thanks. But I still think white power is just an excuse to be sadistic

for sadists.

[babydollhead]

30. Exactly perfect. Bravo!

[BigmanPigman]

6. Hahahahahahahahaha!!

7. Good job by Tapper

That interview was unwatchable. I agree with those who say that it is of no use to give airtime to the likes of Miller. Tapper did as good of a job as one could have hoped for. But these minute long prepared statements and talking over other people to derail interviews instead of answering the questions are so annoying. Without someone like Tapper pushing back, it's like a ratio of 10:1 between the guest and the host with the interviewer not being able to control his own show because stupid fvks like Miller just don't stop talking.

[LiberalLovinLug]

20. I really wish they'd have a button to mute the guest

There was a good station in the San Francisco area that had a great lineup of progressive hosts before the right wing owners canned them all and turned it into yet another sports talk station in 2011. AM 810 KGO.

I used to love that one of the hosts Ray Taliaferro used to first give a warning to yet another raving wing nut, and then "piped him down" and then proceeded to address his issue. I wish we'd see that more

[3catwoman3]

27. Or maybe that "dump the guest" chair that is...

...on the Graham Norton show on BBC.

37. They're schooled in these dark arts.

They’re groomed for this. Happens in these “think tanks” like the Heritage Foundation and American Enterprise Institute. There’s even an outfit grooming upcoming young “reporters” to go out and “cover” the news with the CON angle in mind. I think it’s called the Collegiate Network.

They’re schooled in such battle tactics as interrupting, talking over someone else whether it’s an opponent or the interviewer. Jam ‘em, stuff ‘em, keep talking, don’t give an inch, don’t give a nanosecond to let somebody else get in to rebut. Crowd ‘em out. Keep talking. NEVER cede the floor, OR the microphone. Go ahead and be rude. Because rude is good! Kinda like greed!

[marble falls]

9. Trump's arrogant shits can't contain themselves ever. Thank goodness for that tape.

[George II]

12. I wonder what happened in his 32-year life to make him such a nasty, anti-social, hateful person.

In fact, he was born into a liberal Jewish family in California! Something happened to him to turn him to the dark side.

Now, according to the writer in the linked article, he's a "white supremacist who has behaved like a neo-Nazi most of his short life. When he says he is "offended" by Jake Tapper, it's not hard to hear the echoes of the anti-Jewish forces inside today's so-called "alt-right," of which Miller is a proud member who also happens to have Trump's ear."

A truly scary person.

[SergeStorms]

15. Apparently....

all it took was reading a book written by none other than Wayne LaPierre, fascist leader of the NRA. Let's face it, Stevie-boy was born to be a groveling, sycophantic patsy.

[George II]

16. Or, as Tapper said (probably way over Miller's head), "obsequious", or:

servile, ingratiating, sycophantic, fawning, unctuous, oily, oleaginous, groveling, cringing, subservient, submissive, slavish

[SergeStorms]

13. Blah, blah, blah....

"political genius, self-made billionaire"......that was the final straw. Not only is he probably not a billionaire anymore (if we're to believe the latest financial reports NOT made up by Don-the-Con) but his $200+million inheritance from Daddy Fred had absolutely nothing to do with his wealth at the moment, right? Steve also forgot to mention Donnie's 5 bankruptcies and the hundreds, if not thousands, of lawsuits against Trump for not paying his bills!

Fuck you Miller, you're the Grima Wormtongue of the Trump administration.

[FakeNoose]

21. Cheeto has certainly LOST a $ billion in his lifetime

I doubt if he's made a billion. He probably has only made a few million, mostly from his new tax cuts he just wrote for himself. OTOH we have no idea how much dough he really has now. Steve Miller can suck it for all I care.

[SergeStorms]

28. If he had taken....

his inheritance from Daddy Fred and invested it in the S&P 500 and did nothing else he'd be worth over $8 billion, but "stable genius" that he is, he's parlayed that money (in best industry estimates) to slightly less than $1 billion. He sure is a shrewd business man.

[FakeNoose]

32. I guess that's what happens

... when you launder money for Putin and the Russian Mafia.
Maybe the famous Trump stupidity & ego are also factors, I don't know.

[ProfessorGAC]

33. Actually, The Number is Much Closer TO $11 Billion

Because, of course, the size of the inheritance was lied about and was much bigger than $200 million.

On top of that, I don't believe the net worth was ever over a billion. Too much leverage. What caused the recent downgrades was reduction in commercial real estate value (glut) and more knowledge to the degree of leverage within that organization.

The assets - liabilities have probably never been > a billion.

[maddiemom]

35. Ripping off his contractors and declaring bankruptcy....

how he's made himself a "success."

[OldManTarHeel]

14. Dumbshit dOOkie . .

GTF off the set assclown . .

GO HEELS . . !

[not fooled]

17. And I don't think Tapper has said

"Both sides do it" re this disaster.

Hey, Jake--there really is a difference.

[smirkymonkey]

23. What I wouldn't give to see a group of minorities beat the living crap out of this

Nazi. In fact, it amazes me that he isn't beaten up on a regular basis by anybody who has anything to do with him. He has to be one of the most hateful people on the planet.

[bucolic_frolic]

29. Yes keep that mortifying genuis under surveillance at all times

And don't get near him!

[IluvPitties]

31. They should not invite Nazi Noodle again...

[Juliusseizure]

39. He's just a 32 year old racist prick

He doesn't even have the shallow acting/marketing ability of Trump.

In terms of background, Miller and I have many things in common ethnically, culturally, and geographically. Los Angeles's Jewish community doesn't breed anti-semetic white supremacists. He's a prick unto himself, on the periphery.

In sum, just another immature sociopath lying prick in the Trump admn with severe anti-social psychological traits. I also read psychopath in those dead eyes - again, a trait Trump would cherish if properly controlled.
