President Donald Trump's senior policy adviser, Stephen Miller, went into his TV interviews Sunday with guns blazing. It's barely a metaphor: "Our opponents, the media, and the whole world will soon see … the powers of the president to protect our country are very substantial and will not be questioned," he declared at one point.
