This is not an accident:

Within the White House, Miller is especially close with Kelly, who is frequently aligned with both Trump and Miller's views on immigration. Before moving to his current chief of staff role, Kelly served as the Department of Homeland Security secretary, when he and Miller spoke several times a week about immigration and border policy.

Because Trump doesn't care or know anything about immigration policy. He just wants to sign something that pleases Kelly and Miller.

President Trump tweeted thanks to Republican consultant Brad Blakeman for giving the first year of his presidency an "A" during an appearance on Fox News this evening — while a crucial Senate vote looms later tonight to end the ongoing government shutdown.

Miller was a student with Richard Spencer at Duke, and they were white superiority activists working together there, striking a life long association according to Spencer.

Think about that.

I don't think so.

Sorry but I am confused.

What does Trump's tweet thanking FOX for an "A" rating have to do with the first article?

Meanwhile sources WaPo quoted state:

"There was a story line that people were developing in their own minds that Miller is the source of evil and without him everything would be great," Krikorian said. "The truth is the president is committed to this general perspective on immigration, and Miller and Kelly are there to help him implement what he always wanted to do."

(And another unnamed source) "Miller has told colleagues that his "consuming focus is to make what I know the president wants in an immigration deal a legislative reality," a senior White House official said."

IMO Trump wants to sign something that keeps him within the immigration agenda he promised his base. That;s where most aides come in.

Do you (or anyone else) think that Congressmen draft their own legislation? Hell, that other than a rare bird or two, any Agency or Department Head drafts their own policies? They all have aides who make their ideas real on paper for them after doing all the research and processing.

Sooo...what is "not an accident?"
