Steven Miller is the worst. Because it seems he’s the idealogical leader. In creating an authoritarian state. Russel Voight is next because he is the tactician and so many others are just dumb! Odus from Oakdale CA

Don’t forget he was absent supporting his wife in South Korea while he held the deciding vote for Democrats earlier this year. A real letdown. A great show-pony with many coals of his own to burn. He is a wonk. His wife founded Ocean Wonks.
