He has crafted Donald Trump‚Äôs speeches, designed immigration policies that ban Muslims and separate families, and outlasted such Trump stalwarts as Steve Bannon and Jeff Sessions.

Emmy- and PEN-winning investigative journalist and author Jean Guerrero charts the thirty-four-year-old‚Äôs astonishing rise to power, drawing from more than one hundred interviews with his family, friends, adversaries and government officials.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRadicalized as a teenager, Miller relished provocation at his high school in liberal Santa Monica, California. He clashed with administrators and antagonized dark-skinned classmates with invectives against bilingualism and multiculturalism. At Duke University, he cloaked racist and classist ideas in the language of patriotism and heritage to get them airtime amid controversies. On Capitol Hill, he served Tea Party congresswoman Michele Bachmann and nativist Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecruited to Trump‚Äôs campaign, Miller met his idol. Having dreamed of Trump‚Äôs presidency before he even announced his decision to run, Miller became his senior policy advisor and speechwriter. Together, they stoked dystopian fears about the Democrats, ‚ÄúDeep State‚Äù and ‚ÄúAmerican Carnage,‚Äù painting migrants and their supporters as an existential threat to America. Through backroom machinations and sheer force of will, Miller survived dozens of resignations and encouraged Trump‚Äôs harshest impulses, in conflict with the president‚Äôs own family. While Trump railed against illegal immigration, Miller crusaded against \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003elegal\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e immigration. He targeted refugees, asylum seekers and their children, engineering an ethical crisis for a nation that once saw itself as the conscience of the world. Miller rallied support for this agenda, even as federal judges tried to stop it, by courting the white rage that found violent expression in tragedies from El Paso to Charlottesville.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eHatemonger\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e unveils the man driving some of the most divisive confrontations over what it means to be American‚Äì‚Äìand what America will become.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003c\/div\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-header a-expander-partial-collapse-header\" style=\"opacity: 1; display: block;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-content-fade\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e}\"\u0026gt;\u003ci class=\"a-icon a-icon-extender-expand\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-expander-prompt\"\u003eRead more\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"William Morrow \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50120121385245,"sku":"9780062986726","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/5692\/5213\/files\/9780062986726.jpg?v=1751398671","url":"https:\/\/bookdelico.com\/products\/hatemonger-stephen-miller-donald-trump-and-the-white-nationalist-agenda","provider":"Book Delico ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
