Islamophobic Trump Adviser Stephen Miller Pens Trump Speech on Islam
--------------------------------------------------------------------

President Trump is departing to Saudi Arabia Friday for his first trip
abroad as president. In Riyadh, Trump is slated to give a speech about
Islam-which is being written by Islamophobic White House senior adviser
Stephen Miller. Miller was the architect of Trump's first Muslim travel
ban, which sought to block all refugees and citizens from seven
majority-Muslim nations from entering the United States. Miller also
gave a series of vehemently Islamophobic speeches as part of Trump's
campaign team. After Trump visits Saudi Arabia, he'll head to Israel and
then to the Vatican.
