The bruising on-air battle between Trump policy advisor Stephen Miller and CNN’s Jake Tapper came to an abrupt end when Tapper finally shut off his guest’s mic, saying, “I’ve wasted enough of my viewers’ time” (video below). But it turns out that wasn’t the end of the conversation; the fireworks continued off-air.
Amid reports alleging that CNN was forced to escort Miller off the set, a transcript of Miller and Tapper’s off-air exchange has now emerged. According to the transcript, following the heated interview on “State of the Union” Sunday, Miller continued to press Tapper about getting more airtime, but the anchor was having none of it.
