Trump’s Newest Hire Deletes History of Anti-Donald Tweets

Repeatedly mocked #SleazyDonald.

On Monday evening it was announced that former Ted Cruz senior communications adviser Jason Miller had taken a job as Donald Trump’s new top spokesman. It didn’t take long for media outlets to notice that Miller had purged his extensive history of anti-Trump tweets, including recent ones referring to the candidate as “#SleazyDonald.” According to cached versions of his tweets, Miller repeatedly used the hashtag as a punchline to negative stories about his former boss’s top GOP primary rival. In other now-deleted tweets, Miller mocked Trump as “the Carl Lewis of flip-flopping,” dismissed the idea that his new boss is any more reasonable “behind closed doors,” and teased the real-estate mogul for the various controversies surrounding Trump University.
