"in my great and unmatched wisdom" was probabl;y written by Stephen Miller.

Stephen Miller has written tweets for Trump before.

This phrase, "in my great and unmatched wisdom," has all of the simplistic hyperbole we are used to with Miller.


Does it do any good to realize this (that Miller wrote this)? Who knows? It does show what a sycophant he is and the level of his intelligence.

Trump could never put a phrase like that together. When it's all spelled correctly and uses "big" words, you know Trump didn't write it.

a sick sob like Trump would talk like that. That is the way
a nut job like Pat Roberson talks about God.

I came to the same conclusion. That's how I found this thread.

That kind of over-the-top rhetoric does sound like Miller rather than something Trump himself would have written. (Not because of Trump's modesty, which is nonexistent, but because it's a kind of literary language not in Trump's vocabulary.) But the fact that Trump tweeted it shows that he thought it was great — something he would LIKE to have written — and by tweeting it he now truly owns it.

Yes, it does matter if Miller wrote it, when you consider how extraordinarily unpopular this move has been — even among Republicans. It shows us that Miller isn't just Trump's in-house white supremacist but one of the most die-hard yes-men in the administration. It shows you the shallowness of Miller's mind and the depths of his sycophancy.
