NextImg:Stephen Miller's Lickspittling Metaphor For Trump-Carney Meeting Goes Hilariously Awry
LOADINGERROR LOADING

Top Trump adviser Stephen Miller heaped praise on the president once again Tuesday night — but critics were quick to turn his comment into a punchline.

During an appearance on Fox News’ “Hannity,” Miller described watching President Donald Trump’s Oval Office meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney as “like watching a grandmaster in chess perform.”

Miller, a longtime anti-immigration hardliner and the White House deputy chief of staff for policy, clearly meant the remark as praise for Trump.

The moment went viral on social media.

Critics of the Trump administration flipped the fawning metaphor on its head by suggesting he was actually talking about Carney and mocked the idea of POTUS as a strategic genius.

Yeah I don't think he's watched chess before

surprised to see him flatter the canadian pm so directly

I watched a world-renowned economist squirm with secondhand embarrassment at the mindblowing stupidity issuing forth from an American president.

I watched 45 minutes of that spectacle and, frankly, heard the Canadian Prime Minister speak only once or twice—yet what he said carried far more weight than all of Trump’s rambling. I suspect many others feel the same.
Empty noise is not leadership

I didn’t know the PM of Canada played chess.
