Just like Donald Trump, Stephen Miller was an anxiety-ridden psychologically disturbed child - 'He was a strange dude': says his former third grade teacher - a loner who ate glue.
Former Third grade teacher at Franklin Elementary School in Santa Monica, California Nikki Fiske says, "Miller would take a bottle of Elmers glue, we didn't have glue sticks back then, and cover his hands with with it, peel it off, and eat it."
"I had a lot of concerns about him. Although he was able to keep up academically, he was a 'loner', who had a messy desk and was would often isolate himself from classmates."

In June, former classmate John Muller wrote a tell-all about the man who wrote Trump's inauguration speech. Muller sat next to him, but said the pair were never friends.
'Miller was especially obsessed with tape and glue,' Muller wrote.'Along the midpoint of our desk, Stephen laid down a piece of white masking tape, explaining that it marked the boundary of our sides and that I was not to cross it.'
The former Harvard lecturer said he found it intriguing that for a child so determined to keep others out of his space, he took no care to maintain that space, and recollected Miller's desk being 'sticky and peeling' with pencils and bits of paper everywhere.
'When Stephen wasn’t picking at the tape dividing the desk, he was playing with glue,' he said.
'He liked to pour it into his hands, forming grime-tinted glaciers in the valleys of his palms. Glue thusly in hand, he deployed his deepest powers of concentration to watch these pools harden.'
