"Does the President still have confidence in his national security advisor?" Chuck Todd asked Miller on NBC News' "Meet the Press."

"That's a question that I think you should ask the President, the question you should ask Reince, the chief of staff," Miller said. "I'm here today as a policy advisor and my focus is on answering the policy questions that you have."

"So the White House did not give you anything to say other than that on General Flynn," Todd said. "They did not give me anything to say," Miller replied.

"So you cannot say whether or not the President still has confidence in his national security advisor," Todd pressed.

"Asked and answered," Miller interjected. "It's not for me to tell you what's in the President's mind. That's a question for the President, that's a question for our chief of staff. Asked and answered."

If he continues this path with this administration, perhaps he may prove to be a useful idiot!

Anyone can get fired at an time, especially if they express a view in an interview with which Trump disagrees.
