Miller is a Nazi and on Monday he becomes Trump's Chief of Staff. Miller's speech on Sept 21, 2025, at the Kirk memorial at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, has clear parallels to the tactics used by Goebbels in Nazi propaganda. "The storm is coming" address, closely mimics the themes and cadence of a famous 1932 speech published by Hitler’s chief propagandist, Joseph Goebbels, titled "The Storm Breaks Loose" (Es blitzt der Sturm). Historians, political scientists, and civil rights organizations frequently analyze speech patterns like the one delivered by Miller at the Kirk memorial service to identify rhetorical overlaps with authoritarian, fascist, and National Socialist (Nazi) ideologies. The "Cult of Decline" and Rebirth (Palingenetic Ultranationalism): A core definition of fascist ideology is the narrative that a great civilization is currently in a state of terminal, decadent decay due to internal enemies, and that only a radical, aggressive movement can bring about a national rebirth. This exact blueprint forms the core of Miller's speech, which explicitly demands a total defense to "save this civilization". The music score shares specific functional and stylistic techniques with the music utilized at historical authoritarian and Nazi rallies. Fascist regimes heavily rejected contemporary, experimental music in favor of sweeping, neoclassical, and Wagnerian compositions. This style of grandiose orchestration was deliberately chosen to create a sense of vast historical scale, making the listener feel as though they are participating in a monumental, mythic struggle rather than a standard political gathering.
