Donald Trump’s adviser Stephen Miller has been the mind behind many of of the president’s xenophobic and racist policies. Yet, today, Trump appointed Miller to be in charge of writing his upcoming national address against racism.
Stephen Miller, who crafted @realDonaldTrump immigration policy at the southern border, including separating families and caging children, is preparing a @WhiteHouse speech on race relations. @aurnonline #AURN report https://t.co/2BMNkGPqgq

The announcement did not sit well with Twitter users who decided to blast Trump for it.
Take a look at some of the responses below:
Oh no no no no no no

The nazi preparing a speech about injustices. What could go wrong? Will it include more scenes of carnage? Or green light to nazis to act?

It won't be about injustice to the people but only to the dictator. It will be a rant filled with grievances. And it won't be worth my time to consider watching.

Oh boy. I'm not sure if I need more popcorn or Kleenex.
Probably both, just to be on the safe side.— Gabi *wash your hands* McCauley (@GabiMccauley) June 9, 2020
For real. Lol. Could not pick a worse person.

In times of national crisis, it often makes sense for a president to address the public.
A speech written by Stephen Miller, and delivered by Donald Trump, soon after services for George Floyd, would not be a good idea.

When you think you need to say something about race relations but want the racists to know you're still racist.
