MARGARET BRENNAN: I want to get to this question the border wall which I know you’re a huge advocate for. We are about five days from a potential government shutdown and Republican leadership says there’s no plan. What is the president’s plan and will he shut it down to get this 5 billion in border wall funding?
MILLER: We’re going to do whatever is necessary to build the border wall to stop this ongoing crisis of illegal immigration–
MARGARET BRENNAN: And that means a shutdown?
MILLER: This is a- this is a very- if it comes to it, absolutely. This is a very fundamental issue. At stake is the question of whether or not the United States remains a sovereign country. Whether or not we can establish and enforce rules for entrance into our country. The Democrat Party has a simple choice, they can either choose to fight for America’s working class or to promote illegal immigration. You can’t do both.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Is there wiggle room on that 5 billion?
MILLER: I’m not going to negotiate the details on air with you right now–
MARGARET BRENNAN: Well, Senator Schumer–
MILLER: –but–
MARGARET BRENNAN: –said this morning you’re not getting the border wall in any form.
MILLER: If the- If the Democrat Party–
MARGARET BRENNAN: In any form.
MILLER: –wants to. If the Democrat Party wants to go down the road of continuing to preserve a model that enriches smuggling organizations, that spreads misery on both sides of the border, that kills 300 Americans a week through heroin overdoses alone. By the way, illegal heroin costs our country two hundred and thirty billion dollars–
MARGARET BRENNAN: –you’re, you’re–
MILLER: –every single year.
MARGARET BRENNAN: –talking about the intent of these migrants and-and trying to stop that, which really gets you more to the diplomatic issues of why people are fleeing in the first place, not the border wall itself but–
MILLER: –the largest increases–
MARGARET BRENNAN: –when it comes to the shutdown–
MILLER: –the largest increases–
MARGARET BRENNAN: –are we going to have a shutdown over Christmas?
MILLER: As you yourself acknowledged, the largest increases in illegal immigration are categories that are incentivized by loopholes in our laws and loopholes created by activist left-wing judges including–
MARGARET BRENNAN: –I didn’t say that.
MILLER: –including the district court judge who enjoined–
MARGARET BRENNAN: I said there are a record number happening right now in the Trump Administration.
MILLER: –in the categories that correspond with these loopholes and the interventions- reckless, lawless interventions of district court judges. And this president has taken historic action to stem the tide of illegal immigration and to fight for working people in this country.
MARGARET BRENNAN: And this is his last best chance to get a border wall before Democrats take the majority?
MILLER: –and we want- we- it’s time that both parties- and this is what the American people want. Both parties to come together for the sake of American children, for the sake of children all across this hemisphere, to create a lawful system of immigration–
MARGARET BRENNAN: Okay.
MILLER: –not the lawless chaos–
MARGARET BRENNAN: Stephen–
MILLER: –that has been perpetuated for too many decades.
MARGARET BRENNAN: –it’s good to have you in studio. I want to get to one of the lawmakers who’s going to actually have to do what you’re telling him he has to do.
