Apparently Steve Bannon was the person that introduced Miller to Trump and he told him directly, “this guy IS a fascist…” and Trump hired him.

If you know a bit of his history, Trump always goes for people that are rat nasty so if the shit hits it, he can throw them under the bus as they’re arguably worse than he is. Disposable thugs, and that’s what Steven Miller is.

It’s a tactic Trump learned from Roy Cohn.
