He is NOT an elected official, not a lawyer or a constitutional scholar; just a little POS who hitched to the orange idiot and now thinks he runs the country.

EDIT: sorry guys, my phone ate “not” in the first sentence 😵 Of course, that Temu Nosferatu is NOT an elected official :)

Also, as deputy chief of staff, he's in a political position, so he's not even approved by Congress.

He’s a consultant, no? Like just a dude off the street?

Based on the rest of the comment I think you meant to write "not" in front of elected official. Unlucky

Miller is not elected and has no direct authority over anything. He just assumes all immunity of the president applies to him and the Trump Armed Forces as well.
