Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

She accepted a bribe from Trump when she was FL AG and had his Trump U lawsuit disappear. She’s a great free and liar and is kissing the ring.
