One of Donald Trump's closest advisers is secretly called nicknames behind his back by Trump officials, according to a report.
Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy Stephen Miller is said to be a key architect for some of the Trump administration's most controversial policy decisions.
A new report from RollingStone delves into Miller's role in the White House, reporting, "Under Miller’s guiding hand, the government can deport (or kidnap and rendition) you or your spouse, without due process, to a foreign gulag, if the president feels like it. The White House can repeatedly threaten to take away the most basic of constitutional protections, such as habeas corpus. The president can launch Justice Department criminal investigations against his enemies who, by all known accounts, did nothing wrong except annoy the commander-in-chief, or refuse to help him steal an election."
But behind the scenes, Trump officials are spreading "gossip" and "nicknames," and are "paranoid" he will find out, according to the outlet.
"Trump administration officials and other Republicans close to the president and this White House are paranoid that Miller will one day hear them gossiping about him behind his back — but they still whisper the unofficial titles and nicknames that they bestow onto the White House deputy chief of staff," it states.
One of the purported nicknames could be seen as undermining Trump.
Those titles, according to the report, are as follows:
“Shadow Sec Def.”
“Prime Minister Miller.”
"The REAL Attorney General.”
“The DHS boss.”
“President Miller.”
